I have to admit, I can't parallel park to save my life. Unless the parking space is bigger than average.
However, I can back into a parking space without much trouble.

Anyone can park. Anyone can back up a long, single axle trailer, i.e. those 53' beasts on the expressway. Easy peasy. All ya' gotta' do is pay attention to the world.
Short trailers can be tricky, ya' can't fault a person for jacknifing a short trailer. A trailer with an actuating tongue/hitch that allows the front wheels to turn can be damned tricky. Two of those tied together is damned near impossible.
And, incidentally, when I parked that dude's car for him, the rear, curbside tire was up on the curb, front tires turned all the way toward the road, and the nose about three inches behind the car in front.
He should have kept goin'. There wasn't enough room.
Just another example of someone not paying attention to the world, and doing it with dogged determination.
I just keep going until I find a space big enough or one that doesn't require parallel parking. A long walk to my destination is the penalty for my lack of parking skill.

...and he called one of the female members a lesbian.
Well, that's either correct or incorrect, but hardly offensive, either way.
I promise to not take offence if someone errantly calls me gay. Or straight, for that matter. They'd just be wrong, that's all.
Heh, someone on here recently suggested that I was intellectually challenged; I calmly pointed out the rudeness of this attack upon my character and suggested that courtesy is a better way of comporting oneself, and lo and behold, a moderator swooped in and removed... my post. Go figure ;)

I wasn't sure how they could be wrong on both counts but then I remembered "War Games."
Mr. Liggett: Now there seems to be a lot of confusion on this next question: asexual reproduction. Could someone tell me please who first suggested the idea of reproduction without sex?
David Lightman: Ah-heh.
[whispers something to a classmate]
Mr. Liggett: Alright, Lightman. Maybe you could tell us who first suggested the idea of reproduction without sex.
David Lightman: Umm... Your wife?
[the class erupts into laughter]
Haha! Prawn.
I once paralell parked a car for some stranger who had traffic backed up for about a quarter mile.
It was a dude, though.
