On a related tangent, I've spent the morning amazed by the river of misogyny you get by searching "woman parking" on YouTube. It's not so much the videos as the comments (btw did you know YouTube is full of racist/misogynistic/hombophobic comments? I was shocked, SHOCKED I tell you.)

I feel an extra dash of irony whenever I hear people complain about women drivers since my fiancee is the best parker I know.

smack that isaiah:
Yeah, my sister is a really good parallel parker.  She did a much better job teaching me how to do it than my dad.
On the other hand, my mother (born in Taiwan) is the absolute worst driver I have ever been in a car with, so I'm not sure if it's the Asian or woman stereotype coming out here.  Her sister, though, is a very good driver, so maybe my mom just didn't pay attention in Taiwanese driving school.

hey guys guess who lives in vancouver now!
(i do, the answer is me)

i have only been here a day but so far i can tell you that this city is REALLY stupid nice and everything is so beautiful and convenient and friendly and amazing compared to toronto that i am still sort of doubting this is actually real. i can see douglas island from my street! i don't think i am going to miss ontario very much.
right now i am sat in a coffee bar because i don't have internet at my house yet but hopefully that will get sorted soon, until then i guess i will continue to gape in awe and wonder for the next few days. everything is amazing! life rules.

Lines:
I can parallel park rather well. I don't really know why, but that's just how it is.

Hooray for Tania being in Vancouver!

My mom could out park me blind folded. She drove an SUV for years and can handle a boat trailer, so she just laps me in experience on about every level. It's not even like I'm bad at it either, she's just able to park just about anywhere in one smooth pass.
