It's a parking lot supposedly shaped like a mushroom. Mostly empty during the night.

the parking lot is not shaped like a mushroom. it is just next to a building that is shape like a mushroom. it's in the fat burger area on Michelson?? and Jamboree, I think.

Oh haha sorry. That's what I herd last time you guys went to shroomlot. I think it was when someone's car broke down in smokes or something.

The lighting is a real icky yellow there, not good for photos.. but sets the mood!

I kinda want to take some interior parking lot photos. Somewhere that's lit by fluorescent lighting.

I discovered something new about my car today!

The RX-8 factory rear mirror usually gets in the way when trying to make a right-hand turn. The mirror really is a safety hazard. Many people are unaware that the mirror is in fact double hinged.

Even after explaining that it's double hinged, many people I've spoken with still don't understand how that applies to the situation. To better explain, I've made an animated gif:



As you can see, there are two ball joints, one that lets you adjust the mirror's angle, the other that lets you actually move the mirror - including up and out of your way!

Ok... I lied, I'm not a dickamon. I'm actually a Pokemon Trainer and I have a Dickamon and two Pokeballs. Those Vaginamons are hard to capture!
