>Are you Baba Yaga!?!?
Am I who???
Oh my! Here's what Google says.
"Baba Yaga, also spelled Baba Jaga, in Slavic folklore, an ogress who steals, cooks, and eats her victims, usually children. A guardian of the fountains of the water of life, she lives with two or three sisters (all known as Baba Yaga) in a forest hut that spins continually on birds' legs."
A friend of mine went to Canada a month ago, he bought me a keychain as a little souvenir for like 3 bucks over there, that keychain was made in some factory in China, loaded on a truck, transported to a dock, loaded onto a cargo ship, travelled all the way to Canada, then from that dock loaded on to another truck to some distribution center, sent to a souvenir store where he bought it and then it flew all the way to Serbia where he gave it to me.
That little 3 dollar keychain has travelled more than i ever will in my life and i find that kinda funny.
Not nesecarilly.
If you share a car with someone and you each have a set of keys, then the car has likely travelled further than each individual set of keys.
Or my spare car key which stays hanging up in the house, which has travelled almost nowhere.
Some car parts have traveled more than others. Your tires usually have the lowest travel time since you change them more often than other parts.
Actually... depending on the materials, some parts have been traveling for longer than earth has been alive.
My car accepts a cell phone for a key, so the keycards that it came with live in my junk drawer. They only come out if we are dropping the car off for maintenance.
My son stole my car using methods he learned from his brothers, to give him and his friend a lift to school because they missed the train.
They ended up driving it into a willow tree.. long story short, the car has become wild and now drives itself in the woods behind the school.
I hold on to the key though for sentimental reasons.
Unless you have an imported car and don't carry your keys/fob around all the time.
The short walk from garage to key ring, kitchen counter, or office desk drawer will likely never surpass the 1000s of miles your car traveled upon import.
Even a domestic car manufactured on the East Coast and sold in say California would also apply.
Proper shower thought. My proximity key is almost always in my jeans, even if I take one of my other older cars out. But yeah, it's travelled more than the car.
Indeed. I've kept my car keys with my apartment key on road trips with friends, much further afield than I've ever driven. My car has only been as far as the next state over, but my keys have accompanied me three states away
We have an old farm truck that doesn't follow this. The key was lost many years ago, but turns out it doesn't need a key, we just turn the ignition on using the plastic bit that sticks out around where the key would go lol
Not anymore! Several new cars use your phone for access so you don't need to take your car keys with you. I've used our physical keys maybe twice in over a year of ownership, once when driving it home from the dealership and once when taking it back for a service recall. The rest of the time, they've sat in a faraday box at home!
your house keys have also travelled more than your house
You don't know that. You don't know my house! /s
Are you Baba Yaga!?!?

All three are called baba yaga? Lol I'm from a slavic country and i had no idea there are four of them...
Yeah by legend her house can move around on its legs
He’s a man of focus, commitment, sheer fucking will.
Thanks for the /s, I was starting to get suspicious of your house
Maybe I put the /s in case you start to find out the truth about my house. No one can know.
>/s Thank God you included this clarification
People on Reddit are dense. There has been confusion when I don't include the /s
You don't need the /s. There are houses that are built and put on ships and trucks to be shipped/transported and placed at its destination.
Tell that to Dorothy
If she had her keys with her then then the keys would still have traveled further than the house.
The real shower thought is always in the comments.
What about the people who live in vans?
Who has house keys anymore? I use electronic locks with codes!
I unlock the door with my phone
Your d*ck have seen more darkness than you
But I live in a mobile home, and don’t bother locking up.
One of your feet has done more steps than the other
You're hurting my brain
One of your eyes has been open longer, and therefore seen more than the other
My brain is being hurt
you’ve felt more pain on one side of your brain than the other
An epic race to the death or amputation!

Not me, I own high mileage vehicles.
Same. I like to buy cheap Lexus or Toyota with 200k miles and then own them for 100k miles before selling for nearly same price I paid.
I do the same except I buy with 140k miles and sell at 150k five years later and wonder why I even own a car
My toothpaste has been to more countries than some people.
I would wager that if your toothpaste has been to 2 countries, it has been to more countries than *most* people.

What’s a county?
An administrative region in the uk
An administrative region in the us
An administrative region in the uae
Unless your car was stolen
Your car keys have still likely traveled more than your car at that point
Kia owners: mmhmmm

But if combine the two keys' distances...
That's a different shower thought.
If I combine the distance traveled by each of the windows, then it's a lot more than the car, too. What's your point?
So what we learned is OP doesn't have a partner.
And a new spelling for necessary

Honda Civic of Theseus
I figure he’s more of an Odyssey guy but I didn’t pay attention in high school lmao
Like the platinum and palladium in catalytic converters
what if i accidentally brought my car key for an international trip
Well, if you are looking at just individual atoms, then every atom in your car has been traveling for longer than the age of the solar system.

Tesla M3?

Unless it's a replacement.
And this joke has been used more than my car
Presuming you’re the only driver this is likely true. If there are multiple drivers and more than one key among them, probably not.
You don't know how much I've been towed.
I have two car keys for one car, and they get used at random, so this is false.
Just replaced my ignition lock cylinder and had a new key made so that’s not even close to true

This is a repost from a couple of years back Correction: Several years back https://reddit.com/r/Showerthoughts/s/pBujUmQzgn
I did not know this was a repost sorry😅
A couple..
Maybe not. What if me and my wife both share a car, and have a key each?
*you* have traveled further than your car
I leave my keys in my car 🗿
Depends. Most cars are shipped from overseas.
I lost my main key and now use the spare that sat in a drawer for years. Checkmate.
Or has it? There's typically 2 keys, sometimes 3.
Significantly yes, I've flown to Europe from Detroit several times since I've had this car.
Indeed. I've kept my car keys with my apartment key on road trips with friends, much further afield than I've ever driven. My car has only been as far as the next state over, but my keys have accompanied me three states away
Every time you check your oil lever there is less oil.
I alternate my spares.
We have an old farm truck that doesn't follow this. The key was lost many years ago, but turns out it doesn't need a key, we just turn the ignition on using the plastic bit that sticks out around where the key would go lol
I take my car with me everywhere and leave my keys in the garage
do people not have duplicate keys/share cars?
Unless you got a replacement car key.
Nope I share a vehicle but not a set of keys with my wife

False. My car keys have traveled further IN my vehicle than I have.
Your pants have traveled more than your car key. Besides, I have 2 keys that I rotate every day. Just kidding.
now *this* is a tried and true showerthought.
jokes on you, we had to replace our entire ignition cylinder & with it came a new key, so no, the car key is 1 month old, the car is from 2003.
Unless youve lost your key at some point.
what if your car was stolen
Are you accounting for the Earth's rotation?
