The Great Handicap Parking Mystery of Mount Pleasant
Today I headed over to Town Square in Mount Pleasant to catch Pressure, the new D-Day movie.
(By the way, if you're curious what I thought about it, check out my movie review at https://NielFlamm.com/videos/moviereview.)
As a right above-the-knee amputee, I usually look for an accessible parking space. It's closer to the theater, the walk is easier, and getting in and out with a prosthetic leg is a whole lot less like an obstacle course.
Then I spotted it.
The same accessible parking space.
The same questionable parking job.
The same blue-haired driver.
At this point, I'm convinced this is either a social experiment or an attempt to see how many spaces one compact sedan can occupy at once.
Folks, this wasn't a monster truck. It wasn't an oversized SUV towing a boat. It wasn't a bus.
It was a mid-size sedan.
A vehicle specifically designed to fit between two painted lines.
Yet somehow it was parked like it had ricocheted off three shopping carts before coming to rest.
I stood there wondering if I should leave a helpful note:
"The lines aren't decorations."
Maybe the parking lot needs bowling bumpers.
Maybe flashing runway lights.
Maybe one of those airport workers with orange glow sticks directing traffic.
To the mystery blue-haired parker: I have faith in you. The engineers who designed your car have faith in you. The people who painted the parking lines have faith in you.
One day, you'll center that car.
Until then... I'll keep bringing my sense of humor.
