Ok. So check it out. I'm a shitty-ass driver, right. I mean, like, if there's something for me to run into, I probably will. Just saying. I once turned the wrong way onto a one-way street, because I didn't see the "one-way" sign, because I was concentrating on the value deal posted on the Carl's Jr marquee across the street. I was in college, and I was fucking excited about the buy-one-get-one-free Famous Star special. Priorities, yo.
Note: It totally turned out ok, though, you guys. I bailed into a nearby parking lot before the herd of on-coming traffic could trample me because my years of Mario-Kart experience totally trained me for that moment.
I also backed into the corner of a building once. Literally. The building had a notable scar to prove it. And the bumper of my then-bad-ass truck had the tiniest dent. It took it like a champ. I don't really remember why that one happened, though. I can assume it was also because my ADD was being an asshole, but I can't really say for sure. Maybe I hit that shit harder than I thought. Anyway, I digress ...
So, a couple of days ago, I watched a woman try to back a Ford Focus into a giant parking space 5 times before she finally gave up and drove away. And even though my driving record is far from perfect, because my ADD apparently doesn't recognize heavy machinery as something that I should be whole-heartedly attentive to, I can honestly say that as of this day, I've never once had to give up trying to park a Ford Focus in an acre-sized parking lot. Confidence builders, people. Grab 'em when you can.
