On sale

Lafayette, CA
Renée took this last summer in a grocery store parking lot. I’m telling ya, it’s the five for $1.00 cans of beef-a-roni. Does it every time.

Over it

Jackson, MI
All you had to do was line it up with the curb. What happened?

Don’t back in

Jackson, MI
It helps to look at the back of the car. Notice where the painted line is? How many times do I have to say it… this is what happens when you BACK IN! It’s not worth it people.

140 degrees

Jackson, MI
It helps if you drive the correct direction down the the parking lot lanes. That way you don’t have to make a 140 degree turn. They’re designed that way for a reason.

At the movies

Grandville, MI

Not to be bothered

Can’t wedge in

Hagerstown, MD

He adds, “My original title was going to be ‘Four-Square anyone?’, but the compact to the right found a way to wedge himself in, so I decided [...]
