You Just Had To BE There

So, today I went over my friends house, and her mom was going to drive us somewhere. So she asked Friend#1 to pull the car over to the door. So me, Friend#1 and Friend#2 walk over to their truck and get in. Unfortunately, Friend#2 ends up in the drivers seat. So she says "Friend#1, can I try driving?"
 And so friend#2 is all "sure, why not." And then Friend#2 goes "So...how do you drive a car?"
Me and Friend#1 start freaking out about how she's not going to get to drive the truck. Friend#2 refuses to move, and then turns to us and says "Well, I've driven a go cart before. How different can it be?" I start flipping out, and Friend#1 gets control of the situation and navigates us safely to the house. Then Friend#2 asks if she can back up. Friend#1 said sure, I don'tknow why, I guess she thought it would be safer. So Friend#2 starts to back up, but accelerates to fast and then SLAMS on the breaks. We all fly forward and then Friend#1's Mom walks over and goes "Nice stop."
It was hilarious.
Reading this back, though, maybe you just had to be there. I hate when "you just had to be there," because you could be in tears from laughing so hard but its awkward because the other person is just kinda looking at you, because they can find nothing funny in the story. This happens to me ALL the time.
