Default After coming back from shopping ...

.... I find this huge fire truck parked next to my 3IS ha! It was literally an empty parking lot and I had purposely parked far away from the store so no one else would park next to me

Well at least it looks like any opened doors would be clear of your car!

It's a mystery eyeball. I parked where there were at least 20 empty parking spots around me. I come out of the store and there is a 1994 Ford Bronco jammed right next to my car. In the drivers seat is this old guy staring into space and rapidly smoking a cigarette. I asked him why he jammed up next to me when there is 1/2 a parking lot of empty spots. He looked at me and asked if I wanted him to move.

A woman did the same a while back and when I asked her -- she started yelling that she can park wherever she wants.

I figure it's primitive attraction to bright shiny things, herding instinct, or just evil.

It never fails. I've actually become a huge fan of parallel parking sine I got the car. Nobody on either side of me at least. And now with the backup camera it's idiot proof to parallel park!
