Where's Ruby?

So I parked my car at CBS Radio in Bala Cynwyd right outside of Philadelphia PA. I went up to the station, and looked out the window. We know we have small cars. No contest there. But for some reason I still find this picture hillarious. I call it "Where's Waldo?"

Parking at the front of the spot like you did may some day cause you to get blocked in by a Cretan in a long bed crew cab truck.

Have you noticed? No matter how far you park away from the other cars, some nimnull in an extended cab, long bed pickup truck will always park right next to you?

It's gotten to be a running joke in our family.

I parked at the far end of a deck this morning, came out thirty minutes later, and there were about ten cars clustered by the staircase, and waaaaaay down at the other end were just me and a solitary long bed Tacoma.

I proceeded to watch about 15 people think that they were getting rockstar parking... and start to pull into the space only to find a car already parked in there. I find that game equally as funny.

Totally. I've started parking 'bum out' usually, but if I do dip in fully, I've seen people start to turn into the space before realising there's already a car there.

I guess we can't all be rockstars... now can we

When I took delivery of my car, they warned me to part in the back end of the parking space. I can definitely understand why. Cool pic by the way!
