A bit off topic, however since female driving came up...

I was driving down I-95 South from the mixing bowl on my way to Frednecksburgh, and in moderate traffic I came upon a slower vehicle in the fast lane..... Like 50mph slow in the fast lane of 95 with their hazard lights on. So i pull up the next lane over to the right to pass and I see this lady, driving normally with no issues reading a newspaper.... GTFO. The retard in me wanted to swerve over to see if she was paying attention, yet I refrained for my own benefit.

Anyhoo, back on topic. I seriously park in East Jerusalem, not like in some random vacant spots, I park all the way at the most obscure, back ass, in the middle of nowhere location where I know I can't be hit. I don't mind walking the extra distance, I could probably use the exercise anyway. If the lot is full, i find any parking spot and pray.

I don't accept that. The only thing that causes door dings is a lack of respect for other people's property. If you're paying attention to what you're doing, and have the decency to respect other people's property, then door dings will never occur. Ever.


Totally agree. Even if it was a child, parents should make sure they are paying attention because they are dealing with other people property. There is no excuse for dings.

I agree. I know talent when I read it.

I park as far out as possible. I live in an area where I can drive west and be in very wide-open suburbia or go east and be in metropolis. If I have a choice, I go west. Basiaclly I'm picky about where I shop and park. No dings in many years.
