What's in your Glovebox?

theremin by thereminOG 2002 · May 7, 2004 · 307 views

There used to be this radio segment called: "What's in your Glovebox?" People driving home after a day of work would phone in, and the two DJs with the segment, would ask..:

"So... do you keep gloves in your glovebox?"
The caller would respond: "Of course not. Don't be silly."
The DJs: "Then, what do you keep in your glovebox?"
The caller would then state all the things... and of course it always being the oddest things, which would make for a real good laugh literally everytime.

So... since this radio segment is no longer, let's do our own glovebox game here. If you have something totally weird in it, by all means, share. Because, who uses that thing to keep gloves in anyway!? If you say you keep gloves in it, you're lying. hahaha

Who's first?

I used to keep unpaid and expired parking/traffic tickets in mine until I got pulled over by a cop and I had to open it to get my registration and insurance and he said, "Hey what are those in there? pull them out"

If only that stuff was in your glovebox and not trunk, 'cause that's the funny stuff we want to hear about. That is how the game is played. You came so close to winning.

fivezero #7 fivezeroOG 2003

i have my "driving credentials" in there. registration and insurance info and so forth.

i used to just toss just in there, but a cop pulled me over one time and said that i shouldn't put anything else but my "papers" in there. he said it makes cops nervous when someone is rooting through junk. could be a gun. and then YOU'D be shot, whether it's a gun or not. i just looked at him with my mouth wide open.

skaorsk8 #6 skaorsk8OG 2002

i got a lot of jello boxes. i know, you think "hey that's odd" but if you're ever stuck in a snowstorm, i'll be in my garage, with the lights off, eating jello in my car.

specialk #5 specialkOG 2003

That's so weird. Here in Ohio, most people call it a "glove compartment." I've heard it called a "glove box" before, when I visit my family in the PA area, but it's just weird hearing it when I'm not there, you know? hahaha...pretty funny.

omegatweeter #5.1 omegatweeterOG 2003

yeah that is weird, i call it glove compartment too!

theremin #5.1.1 thereminOG 2002

As you should be calling it. hehe

theremin #5.2 thereminOG 2002

I've only heard people in NJ, and everywhere else in America call it a "glove compartment" too. Except that this wasn't on an American radio station.

People in PA call it a "glovebox?" ..Hmm ..interesting. Didn't know that. It never came up in conversation when I've talked to Pennsylvanians, so I guess I wouldn't know that. Maybe I'll trick my PA band members into talking on the subject, and see which one they say.

specialk #5.2.1 specialkOG 2003

I've not heard all my family in PA use that term....but it has been used my friend. Oh yes, it has been used. :)

theremin #5.3 thereminOG 2002

BTW, what's in your glovebox? haha

specialk #5.3.1 specialkOG 2003

Well....I've got a greeting card, a deck of cards, a mini atlas, a tire compressor, some grape-scented hand wipes from Bath & Body Works, my Valvoline VIP card, some random papers for writing on, and I think that's about it. I'll have to double check.

thefunkyfresh #5.4 thefunkyfreshFounder

yeah, i think glove compartment is the preferred term, but glove box is also widely accepted.

omegatweeter #4 omegatweeterOG 2003

i have in mine napkins, straws, my car manual, a few cd's, and my sunglasses

thatdarngirl #3 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Of course not. Don't be silly.

At the moment I only have my insurance and all that other stuff that needs to be in there, the manual for the car, napkins, and a toothbrush.

yodasucka #3.1 yodasuckaOG 2003

a tooth brush? no tooth paste? tell me how a tooth brush is useful with no tooth paste and no sink?

thatdarngirl #3.1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

I..don't know.

malibu #3.1.2 malibuOG 2001

because they you can just do a quick brush over to get all the hangy stuff out or if things are caught in your teeth.

yodasucka #2 yodasuckaOG 2003

Of course not. Don't be silly... i have napkins, a map of PA (it kindda came with the car and i never took it out, if you are ever lost in PA, call me), a pen, a My Melody notebook, registration, insurence car, a comb, couple hairties, my phone charger, various piece of paper with phone numbers or other information i felt compelled to keep for some reason i'm sure, and a couple CDs... hm... thats not very funny...

aviator #1 aviatorOG 2004

haha napkins, straws, handywipes, atlas, flashlight, EZ PASS, pens, pad, address book, cigarette lighter, phillips screw driver, allan keys, tissues, and some tracts.

theremin #1.1 thereminOG 2002
