L.A. is a great big freeway.
Put a hundred down and buy a car.
In a week, maybe two, they'll make you a star
Weeks turn into years. How quck they pass
And all the stars that never were
Are parking cars and pumping gas

I don't really start threads, but there should maybe be a Defend the Indefensible for people who back into parking spaces.

Spencer Chow, Thursday, 19 April 2012 05:15 (fourteen years ago)

I backed into my own driveway just now

Memorial Highway (admrl), Thursday, 19 April 2012 05:18 (fourteen years ago)

You can of course do what you like in your own driveway. I'm talking about in crowded parking lots with people waiting.
