I like driving through the spot in my aisle into the one in the next aisle that lets me face forward.

(assuming that makes sense in english)

Likely due to lack of practice, but I am NO GOOD at backing into a spot. Thus, I don't do it. Thus, I don't get better. Ah well.

Eggless cake = comedy gold!

At least it came together in vague cake-form before crumbling? One time I tried to make brownies and forgot the eggs (I think the eggs? One of the liquid ingredients), and they kept not looking cooked. So I kept putting them in for a little more time. Until finally, they were charred. It was not pretty at all. OR tasty.

I agree with the theory of backing into a space. I don't do it because I have terrible depth perception.

House~ma to Kalshane!

I do this too, but I have been informed (by my mother) that this is the height of rudeness. I am not sure she speaks for all america!

There's a factory I go by on the train that apparently requires everyone to back in. Hundreds of cars, and every single one is backed in. You know that don't happen unless there is an enforced rule about it....

I think it's rude when the spots are angled, but that's because driving nose-forward out of those you often then have to turn to go in the one-way traffic direction of that lane.

Backing into my spots at home made me pay more attention to how the car turns, and about which point. I'll probably never be as good backing into a good spot as I am nosing in, but I'd much rather wait behind someone who's actually parking than someone who's sitting and waiting for the woman with two toddlers to get her shopping into the cart and wrestle the kids into car seats.

What is the point of backing into a parking spot?

To get on my last nerves?

We have back-in, angled parking in the shopping district in my neighborhood now. While I fully support the angled parking (it increases the amount of spaces by a ridiculous amount) I think the back-in only policy is bullshit. Supposedly it's for safety but you can't see anything coming down the street when you're pulling out unless the cars on either side of you are shorter than yours. And it takes people FOREVER to figure out how to back in.

I have strong opinions on this matter.

Um, rude how? (Note I'm arguing with Sophia's mother.) You're still taking up exactly one space, and you're better positioned for a quick pull-out when you leave, which means that in a crowded parking lot, you'll inconvenience other drivers that much less, than if you parked nose-in and had to back out slower.

this is the height of rudeness.

Why? I mean, if there's someone who wants the spot, okay, but...
