Men and Their Parking Spaces !!
Posted: Thu Oct 04, 2007 7:10 am
What is it about men and parking spaces? I'm sure women don't get so upset when someone takes a spot they had their eye on (????).
Today, I went to the gas station and then completely forgot I was there to get petrol, so drove past the pumps (no blonde jokes please :wah:), so I reversed back to get myself in position for an available pump. As I was reversing, a women swung in next to the pump. When she realised that I was going to that pump, she gave a 'oops sorry' look - I just laughed and went to a pump on the other side. We had a joke and a chat as we filled our cars. :-6
I remember as a small child how my father used to get really angry about this. And on many occasions I remember him actually having physical fights in the car park/parking lot. (with my Mum trying to hide on the floor in the car, and us kids sat watching in horror). I'm not saying all men take it to this extreme (if I judged all men by my fathers standards I probably would of become a Nun :wah:).
So, is it a macho thing or what?
