Friend Rant of the Day

Today's friend rant of the day is once again brought to us by my friend Keith. Although I can take partial credit for this one, as it's something that has always bothered me and I just haven't gotten around to ranting about it yet.

If you have a large car, whether it be a truck or SUV, learn how to park it! That includes you, soccer mom with the Hummer who has to take up two parking spots, or who has to back in and out 500 times because your car is too big for you. I guess Keith was trying to find a parking spot at the gym last night and couldn't find any because there were so many big cars with crappy parking jobs.

When I was at Wal Mart last weekend, it wasn't bad enough that I had to go to the stupid store in the first place. No, first I had to wait for a Ford F150 with HUGE wheels to fit into a parking spot that was too small for the truck in the first place. Yet the driver insisted on taking the spot and backed out and in again FIVE times. Buddy, after the second try, just give up and park somewhere else!

I wish they made people take a special driving test before they are allowed to buy larger cars. That would save the rest of us a whole lot of aggravation, and open up a lot more parking spots!
