So my smart lock lets you use any 6-digit code. Didn't want to be something obvious,so I let it to the last six digits of my phone number. One day my friend asked,what's your door code again? My brain instead of just saying the 6 digits,I went: "Oh it's just my full phone number" She took that to mean all 10 digits. And she never questioned it.

Every time she came over, she’d stand at my door like she was trying to hack into the Pentagon typing all 10 digits, slowly… then fast… then whispering them like a spell.

Door stays locked. She tries again. And again. At one point she squinted at the keypad like it personally betrayed her family.

Meanwhile the REAL code was literally just the last six digits.

She kept saying, Your smart lock is so moody. And I was like, Yeah… technology, huh.

She found out yesterday when she saw me unlock it in two seconds.

I have never seen such pure betrayal. I owe her dinner. Possibly therapy.

TL;DR: Told my friend my smart lock code was my full 10-digit phone number even though it was just the last 6 digits. She fought my door for months thinking the lock was “moody,” and now she knows I’m the problem.
