I can parallel park just fine, no matter which side of the street and no matter which side of the car I'm on.

Can't stay awake through a televised baseball game though.

It doesn't actually say it prevents brain injury, just lessens the severity. For anyone interested, the provisional article is open access on the Critical Care journal's website.

Is there any chance that I'd get the urge to fark Some Guy after this treatment? Coz I think I'd rather the sore head than the sore arse.

Or front or back seat? Sounds like my wife. She's a hell of a driver, from the passenger seat.

My ex could park just fine. She was a natural at the dreaded task of parallel parking. She just couldn't start a car on a hill without stalling out or dislocating my spine (the car was a standard). Yes, she was learning at the time. I'm sure she can drive a stick just fine now.

My wife can park just fine. I think it is related to her practice of standing in the bathroom and ripping out large swaths of bush.

Seriously, ladies, WTF is up with the thick coating of pubic hair on every. god. damned. thing. in the bathroom?

We live in the suburbs, so the parallel parking skills of both my wife and me have atrophied. She does, however, fail to understand that just because you made it up to third gear you are still allowed to down shift when you slow to 15 mph.

Could my post be written in a more stilted manner? Perhaps.

Rugby and Hockey are the only sports I can stand to watch on TV.

SRY, that's me, I come over and teabag the joint when you're at work. I do bathe, if that's any consolation.

Joan Crawford: Ohhhh... Helga. When you polish the floor, you have the move the tree. If you can't do something right, don't do it at all.
Helga: I'm sorry, Miss Crawford...
Joan Crawford: Gimmie the soap. You see, Carol Ann, you've got to stay on top of things every single minute.

Joan Crawford: Carol Ann, will you get that?
Carol Ann: Yes, Miss Crawford.
Joan Crawford: Helga, I'm not mad at you, I'm mad at the dirt
