they couldn't figure out what to do with the third button in Belgium.

Waffles or GTR Seat eject button

From my experience, the panic button works farther away compared the lock/unlock button. If I walk like 50 feet away, the lock button stops working, but the panic button would still work.

I couldn't find my car in Disneyland's parking structure, and it helped me find my car

Ok, so as a location device, the panic button is a win. Or it's at least better than repeatedly clicking the "lock" button.

I never knew what the actual purpose if that button was.

No need just lick and stick.

Wow, this thread went "there"

Like this:

Shado, I hope something awful happens to you.

I thought the fact that everyone wants something horrible to happen to Shado was a given.

I was once walking to my car to see two high school kids touching the car and flipflopping it. I immediately thought, "pop out my knife" but instead I wanted to give them a run for their money so I hit panic. 20 people all look at my car, and those kids were bookin' it. I have never enjoyed a car alarm so much in my life, despite the sad reality that my car could have been stolen.

Otherwise, I've never used it, although I have hit the lock key to jump some admirers.

Purist, I must know what "flipflopping it" means. Then I can use it on my kids, showing them how cool I am, gettin' all street and stuff. They love it when I do that. They say they don't, but they do.

Great quote in your sig, by the way!
