Let's see how many of us have this in common:
Victory Lap:
When you show up with your ride, to say the Mall or the Movie theater, and even though you will be parking way in back, alone - you'll still do a lap in front of the doors to show off the car. You'll do it on the way out too, even though it's completely out of the way.
Window Symmetry:
You can't have your driver's window down half way without your passenger window down the same way. If you have a 4 door, you're hesitant to put the front windows down all the way, because the back windows may not go down as far. All windows must align.
Seat Symmetry:
The moment someone is out of your car, you reach over and ensure the passenger seat is slid forward and tilted to match your seat.
Visor Symmetry:
One can't be without the other. Both are down, even if the sun isn't over there.
The Perfect Circle:
Whenever you leave your car, your steering wheel is aligned straight. It simply looks better that way.
Vacationers:
Do you still take your faceplate with you? In the case? 12 years ago, were you the guy in the mall walking around with his pull-out? If you have a removable steering wheel does that come with you too ?
Photographers:
You must park your car in a visually appealing position. The wheels will be cut outward to show off the rims from all angles, but the tread on one side. Sometimes tilted within two parking spots. It's like you're posing for a magazine cover.
Mug Shot Photographers:
Taken to the extreme - You back your car in ALL THE TIME because the front is it's best side. Or perhaps the rear. If you own two cars of different orientation you'll be a ....
69er:
I park my Civic nose in, and the CRX nose out. Parked together. Always.
Perfect timers:
My girlfriend and I go out. I park the car, photographer style. As we're walking in she will begin counting down 3.... 2... 1.... because she knows I will turn around and behold the beauty from a far. I'll stop at the door and do it once more. Clockwork.
Window Lickers:
You're going out to dinner. There is a seat available against the wall. You'll wait for a window seat. Everyone knows why.
Herder:
When you're parking your car, and you spot a car just like yours - Even though you'll need a ride to get from the parking spot to the door ... You'll park next to it. Because you're hoping a herd will form.
Mover and Shaker:
You'll pass a like car, and wave. Maybe they will wave. Then you'll immediately look in your mirror to see if they hit the brakes. If they do, you hit the brakes - Maybe they want to talk! If they don't wave, and don't even acknowledge your car's similarity, you'll become enraged like your daddy doesn't love you. The nerve of them.
The Porn-Illusioned freak:
You're cruising in your whip. You come across an attractive member of the opposite sex, driving in the same car as yours. For a brief millisecond you think it's feasible that within the day you'll both be going at it hot and heavy. This scenario has NEVER happened, but for some reason you think it may... This time...
