LOL
Once, back 25+ years ago, I chased a noise for a LONG time in my car. Went all over the car trying to find out what was rattling and making the oddest noises. Then, after having given up and living with it for a while, I found a glass marble that someone put in my ashtray. LOL

A few days later, I just happened to pick up the rear seat floor mat and noticed a wet splotch underneath it -- that reeked... And a near empty baby bottle under the front seat that had either breast milk or formula remnants in it. Our daughter must have dropped it, and it spilled slowly over a few days -- mostly evaporating except for the spill that went under the floor mat. Probably had been there for at least a week before we took it in to BMW, and since we had the A/C in recirc mode, it was made us think the smell was coming out of the vents! Anyway, I used a carpet spot cleaning machine to wet vac the carpet. Once cleaned up and given time to dry out, the smell was gone...

Maybe not "funny," but funny.
Dude that owns the lucky car posted the video under the heading "It is 2020- Dumpster hit my car."
