Found my new parking place

It was right there, all along. The place they were parking school buses flooded about 5 years ago and they temporarily had them parked in the lot at work. Now that they're gone I get a Texas sized parking place.

Wow, that's good.... and you're right.... creepy. I'm assuming from meta data of the photo?

Edit: I figured it out. Not many Toys R Us in Iowa.

That's not a parking lot. That's a gymkhana course!

your a douche if you take up 2 or more parking spaces,

what are you considered if you take up only 1/3rd of a space?

No way. Gigantic photos FTW!

And I agree, you should double park.

I think you should park further toward the front of the spot... I'm sure that tree will enjoy gooping all over your ride if not!

Maybe the stalkers still have good enough eyes for it though

Maybe avatar pic size
