“No matter how loud car alarms are, cars never seem to wake up”

A car alarm serves a different purpose than an alarm clock, but there is a one-line saying:
 
“No matter how loud car alarms are, cars never seem to wake up.”
 
The joke was posted on Twitter on August 16, 2011.

Driving by the Bruces
I have two wonderful neighbors —both named Bruce — who live across the road from each other. Whenever I pass their driveways, thoughts occur to me, such as: no matter how loud car alarms are, cars don’t wake up.
