Last year, me and my mom was out driving, I we were hungry and fund a restaurant to have lunch at, someone must just have left because the parking spot closest to the entrance was free and I parked there.

Felt like a movie when the protagonist allways finds a parking spot by the entrance in a full parking lot.

And it was so amazing that you remember it a year later!

Believe it or not, I know the feeling. Took a vacation to Scotland like 10 years ago with the wife-to-be. Didn’t know anything shout the Fringe festival in Edinburgh and ended up there right in the middle of it with our rented car. Got used to driving on the opposite side of the road and car pretty quickly, but I was still remarkably proud of parallel parking in backwards-driving-world surrounded by street performers and tourists and doing it all on the first try. It was beautiful. We were perfectly equidistant from the surrounding cars, exactly 6 inches from the curb, in a manual transmission Jeep Renegade rental we picked up in Glasgow. To this day, it is my greatest parking achievement, without question. Still brings a tear to my eye reminiscing.

Jeep Renegade

All the other traffic probably gave you plenty space because they assumed you were a hairdresser 😂

Yeah, because he remembers when you made his ass circle for 30 minutes waiting for that close parking spot, when you both could have been in the venue 25 minutes earlier if you’d just not been a princess, and walked 100 yards.

Just speaking from experience, bro. I don’t have to tolerate that, anymore.

I am by far not a fuck cars guy but that screams car brain so fucking much. It’s like looking into a dystopia.

Also I would be ecstatic about finding a really nice parking space so what do I know

I think you are a fuck cars guy, if this is your opinion.

Cars have their uses, but just as you rightly point out, they’re way overused because of lack of better infrastructure.

Fuck cars people are often city lovers who don’t understand that not everyone wants neighbors.

I think not having neighbours is only really possible for a small number of people, mostly in agricultural work. If the majority of people didn’t want neighbours, we could not sustain the populations that exist, end of story.

Spreading people out is part of the reason why so many counties in the US are going broke, because infrastructure per person gets so much more expensive when compared to property taxes.

Cars are certainly needed in rural areas, but emphasis on the rural. Even modest towns could and can afford small public transport networks if they plan correctly.

Eh, I’m a suburbanite who is annoyed at our already relatively low density neighborhood (thinking of moving to the country), and I absolutely hate driving. I want to get to everything with a bicycle or a train.

You don’t have to love cities to hate cars.
