RX-8 on Google Earth
I get really bored at work and like to use Google Earth a lot. I stumbled across an RX-8. I thought it was pretty cool.

This is awesome. There are only roughly 35,000 RX-8's on the road in North America and someone managed to find one in Google Earth. Pretty impressive.

Haha, yes of course! A single post about how we like to keep our valuable possessions in good condition describes a huge aspect of our daily lives! Please tell me you're bored jerky...

No, I think you people should get a grip on this ****. 
There are so many of you on here who post about door dings and little bullshit like that....that it's sickening. Sure you can spend as much time as you want imagining that if you double park or park away from other cars, there won't be any damage to your car when you get back. But what about when you drive home on the highway that one day where a shitload of debris suddenly flies into your path and scratches up your bumper and hood? Is that the point where you finally realize that you're not in control...and that your obsessive compulsion hasn't paid off? Or wait...you all probably bought clear bras and avoid highways too, right?

And if you don't like that far fetched idea maybe it's just a girl owner with an automatic who doesn't know how to park! Haha, I kid, I kid.

I'm very **** about where I park because yes, I don't want doordings. I'm not trying to be master of the universe, but parking to minimize doordings takes only slightly more effort on my part and makes me happier. Is it as important as paying the bills? Hell no, but I don't enjoy paying bills while I do enjoy the RX-8. I don't see what's wrong with trying to keep what I enjoy in as good of a condition as possible.
