  • I never personally understood the amount of focus people put on a good parking space. Unless it’s so bad that I have to park in an entirely different lot, I just can’t be bothered to care, and I see people getting so worked up over what is usually a minute or two max of walk time difference.

    Obviously, some folks don’t walk so good and I’m not talking about that. It seems like the default behavior for even able-bodied drivers and it leads to fucking road rage incidents.












  • It’s good old-fashioned xenophobia and is by no means unique to Americans or English-speakers even in the modern era. Anyone who has spent enough time in certain parts of France, Italy, or Belgium has probably encountered it at some point.

    It’s everywhere but it is probably most prevalent in countries with a strong nationalist core and, in my opinion, ironically occurs most often in countries that have really fucked around with having an empire in the last century or so.
