That Erie Feeling

For those who didn't know, I live in Pietermaritzburg. Sounds innocent enough doesn't it? Well some of the locals refer to it as Sleepy Hollow, and we all know the crazy shiz that went down in that place.

Exhibit A:

Like this, only not quite as awesome as Christoper Walken

Every now and then, we have to go to the Post Office at the local shopping centre to pick up... post. Now as normal and random as that might seem, it's not. After minutes of deliberation I've come to the conclusion that the entire area is situated in an ancient vortex known as the PENTACLE OF NOTHINGNESS. Seriously. Every time we go there my car's remote stops functioning. EVERY TIME. This leads to me looking like a car thief/idiot as I walk around the car, pressing the button like some compulsive idiot having just escaped from the nuthouse. Now the first time this happened I just thought that the batteries were flat, so I bought new ones, but like clockwork, the remote stopped working the moment I got to the shopping centre again, but started working as soon as I tried it anywhere else. So please, as a concerned citizen, I beg of you beware the PENTACLE OF NOTHINGNESS!!!

Exhibit E (for EVIL):

It could just be some radio interference, but I'm not taking any chances
