Survey of the Day...

Abnshrek · 05-10-2014, 11:41 AM

People can be perceived numerous ways, and don't think about it much, but the people you have over see..
So Are you over the Top?

Or are you under-handed?

Or you could be... an over achiever..(an under handed one is depicted).. :^)

I honestly don't care but I suspect this is a gender choice with most men needing A.

Another gender choice? I look for drive thru parking spaces but will pull in if none are available. For some reason men think that backing into a space saves them time. Hello? 1st of all, you tick women off while you play around getting settled backwards and, 2nd, you accomplished nothing but changing the order of steps. Pulling in gives you the chance that you might get to pull thru if the other car leaves; once you park backwards you've decided your fate.

You might be on to something there.. :^)

I think C is meant just to mess w/ anybody coming over..

It doesn't have high-speed rollers on the bottom of the roll like a lazy-susan either.. :^)

HEY!!! I ALWAYS back up or park in the back of the parking-lot where nobody else is BECAUSE: If I hear a noise of grinding metal or the like... It's usually a Grandma that has forgotten how to drive... If I'm backed up I have a better chance to get in my car/truck and taking-off after that deaf bag of bones or scared lil'kid. I don't like parking near anyone but if I must, I make sure I have a quick easy getaway!
In my driveway at home too... If I think or realize someone grabbed something or trashed my yard I WILL catch them... 350 H.P. or 295 H.P.ish says so.

You will wait for me to backup!

I have. I have begged to be allowed to vacate the vehicle when a guy was driving so I could go do my shopping and be back before he completed critical maneuvers for his "quick getaway". (I'd forgotten that that's the reason--heard it many times.)

If I'm trying to park in a busy lot, I note the gender of the driver(s) also scoping out spaces. I will actually honk if a man practicing "get ready for the get away skills" is blocking my progress because I know he's intent on his task and might not see me. I'm NOT trying to steal his precious place or even ticked he may have taken mine; I just to get away, find a place 1/4 mile from the entrance and finish my tasks before he even shuts off his engine.

It's good to be single!

Over nor under, butt on the side with quick backup ready.

Live with a man and you learn to keep a hidden backup. Just saying.

My driving skills while backing up, are as good or better than many pulling straight in to a parking stall. If I'd ever need a battery boost, the engine bay is facing forward and easily accessable by the attending vehicle. It's just my preference.

Cheers, Barrie.

That makes sense. Shhhh! Don't tell the other guys or I'm doomed.

Pallen · 05-11-2014, 07:25 PM

I just pull straight on in. And I hate it when I have to wait for someone to dink around backing up into a spot. Faster just to just pull out where there is plenty of room, than to waste time backing to a parking spot. Hardly any wait at all backing out as compared to backing in.

I'm all for anyone parking how they like, but backing in might have issues w/ being able to see coming out depending who is parked next to them.. Now the people that like taking up 2 spots, by parking right in the middle of 2 spots @ once bother me..

Yea, but that gives them the room they may need to back up that way. And it is definatly safer also having the width a two spots to back in to. Some seem to do this to protect ther preciuois fancy paint jobs from people with carts.

If those folks pull in I think they might have to get in their passenger side if I see an opportunity to park next to them.. :^)

I personally think the over or under debate is best solved by checking to see which house has cats.

I am worried about even asking what is meant by that.
BTW: We have one cat and we use TP on the side as pictured. If that even means anything :/

I prefer to park away from other vehicles, especially those who have pulled forward or backed in. A couple of years ago I had a beat up white pick-up pull through and rip the front right fender off my little Saturn when his back bumper caught it (as seen on the security tape)......some people, regardless of gender, should not be driving if they don't know the size of their own vehicle!

That's right some people are idiots and shouldn't be driving in the 1st place.. :^)
