Political rants from friends on Facebook. You're not swaying anybody. You're alienating half your friends.

Yeah, Shameless Self Promotion and "Look at how great of a human being I am" type posts on Facebook are right up there with Political Rants. Also could add people who post pictures of their dinner. GTFOOHWTS People that add multiple "witty" hashtags at the end of their "inspiring" or "witty" post that was neither "inspiring" nor "witty".

I always back in to a parking space over here.. the way our parking lots a generally structured it makes it easier to see when driving out of a space over backing out of a space.. Whenever I've been in America, though, I've always driven in.. it seems to work easier. (06-23-2017, 10:34 AM)Jaguarmeister Wrote: Political rants from friends on Facebook.

Who knew?! 80% of what I talk about is nonesense.. the other 25% is made up statistics... We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

It's 'easier' backing out of a parking spot with people, probably like Jaguarmeister, driving too fast? That's EXACTLY why I back in, so I can get out without getting plowed into or some idiot blaring his horn at me and having the common courtesy to let me out.

Otherwise, it seems like it'd be a lot easier to back out of a parking space than to back into one. This is my thought process... also, if you're in too much of a hurry to wait for someone to back in to a space, then is that really the person who's parking's fault? 80% of what I talk about is nonesense.. the other 25% is made up statistics...

Otherwise, it seems like it'd be a lot easier to back out of a parking space than to back into one. It's not so much the backing in as it is the backing in when cars in either direction or both are waiting on the slow [BLEEP] to back in. I've had a guy back in to a space in front of me when he could've driven through the space into the one in front of it and been facing the next aisle over. It was the most asinine thing I've ever seen. I do drive thru parking spaces to be facing the next aisle when I can, but I can't recall being in a situation where backing out of a space felt so dangerous that I regretted not backing into it in the first place.
Everyone on 9A between Phillips highway and JTB. Including construction workers. My job some how finds a way to have me traveling through that hell hole everyday between 4-6. I've Yet to see a day where people merge correctly. And how long do they need to build a freaking road. I swear it's been 2 1/2 years.

Yeah we all couldn't wait to watch your [BLEEP] back into the parking space as slowly as possible. I drive a 2002 extended cab Chevy Silverado and, for me, it's easier to back into parking spots due to the wide wheelbase Chevy's have. They are notorious for not being able to make tight turns. I've pretty much perfected the art of backing a Chevy/GMC truck into a spot thanks to years of having to do so if I don't want to make a three point turn just to go forward into a spot. Give me a Ford though and I'm screwed when backing into a spot. They have shorter wheelbases and I over-correct if I'm driving my husband's work truck, so I always pull in and try to pull through. I hate backing out of a parking spot. Also, in the military we were always backing into spots for faster extraction should a quick getaway be necessary. Plus, all those vehicles have wide wheelbases so it was always easier to back them into their motor pool slot then drive straight out when leaving. A hard habit to break.
Clayton Bromberg. The guy from the Underwoods commercials. He has the most annoying voice, even worse than the stuttering steeler, Frangie.
Plus, one of his ads talks about cutting imperfections of diamonds. He goes on to say that a normal person can't distinguish them, so they should let Underwoods show them. Well, if a normal person can't tell the difference, who is stupid enough to spend thousands more for something that looks exactly alike? Dude is a total tool.
What lies behind us, and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
