Posted - 04/15/2005 : 11:46:37 Right. Right. Got it.
I like how Denis so politely posts a discrete link to a dictionary definition, nice Frenchman that he is, while shiner just starts rhyming like Rev. Jesse Jackson starring in a porn film.

Posted - 04/15/2005 : 04:06:37 dp = one in the pink, one in the stink. but , i don't get floop's reference so maybe he meant something else.
ok, i'll park while your blindfolded? it'll probably be better for your eyes anyways as my parking jobs often give off a holy glow that sometimes burn the eyes. |

How about the T2000-smooth motion, hot chicks gaping with admiration and crowding round as you get out of the parked car. I call that one the Cheeseman.

Posted - 04/14/2005 : 15:08:33 talk to me when you've mastered the 'one-fluid-motion, reverse no-look, somking-a-cigarette and talking-on-cell-phone while-adjusting-radio and noticing-hot-chicks-on-sidewalk parallel park' technique. |

Posted - 04/14/2005 : 14:53:56 not always, but you get closest to the curb that way, and that is where the real talent lies, in knowing when to crank the wheel to the left in the second motion. if you do it right you never have to make a second forward motion. pulling up the right distance away from the car you are parking behind is also a key aspect in "picking the right spot". if the car in front you was parked by a lady or a brit chances are it is too far from the curb and is messing with your chances of a "perfect parallel park". however, this being said i can still pull this off with relative ease.
my motto: there is always enough room, if there isn't, well, bumpers were meant for bumping. |

Posted - 04/14/2005 : 14:35:17 back on topic: let me ask you this shiny: when you parallel park, do you make a "3 point turn," stopping, putting the car in reverse, then forward, then reverse etc..?

Posted - 04/13/2005 : 22:59:51 professional surfers often talk about their relationship with the wave as being like a relationship with a beautiful woman .. and the ride they take is like... well, you know.
that's how parking is with me. the curb is like my woman. and the steering wheel is my surfboard.
be good to her and she'll be good to you. |

Posted - 04/13/2005 : 19:37:04 fine, but if you ever decide to come back over to the winning side i'll only have room for you in the back seat now.
and you know what TF stands for where i come from right? |

K, i thought you were in my pit crew? |

Posted - 04/13/2005 : 19:21:07 Boys, boys, boys! Stop for a minute now, OK?
I want to point out, shiner, that your Wilco mention is but a diversionary tactic, to take the focus off the fact that floop's skillz are superior.

Posted - 04/13/2005 : 19:15:41 what's funny about your end of the bargin, shiny, is that you'd rather be in the beer garden than listening to Wilco. would that have something to do with the fact that they suck?

Posted - 04/13/2005 : 19:07:47 i'll be starting that one on may 29th, then floop will start his "i was wrong about wilco" thread, whilst cheese is still trying to figure out which way to rotate the wheel whilst in reverse.
BOO YA! |

it's not hard to parallel park a bicycle. |

Posted - 04/13/2005 : 16:10:14 astronauts who have gone to space often describe it as being "an outer body experience," "transcendental" or, "like nothing you could possibly imagine" ..
and often times, after returning from the trip, they experience a period of depression and self-reflexion, due to the intensity of the experience; after being so "high" nothing else in the real world can possibly compare..
not unlike being in my car when i parallel park
know what i'm sayin' dawg? |
