background-
So here in 'omg i can see mexico' there is 1 comic book shop and a Hastings which we basically ignore... anyways... while i was away at school there was a fire. No one was hurt but they had to move shop.
Now across the street there was once a radio-shack. It closed up shop about a year and a half ago. So obviously the easiest place for their customers to find and the easiest move is... move across the street. and change our name. but leave the 'computer corner' and radio-shack signs in place.
so on to the story!!
so as the words computer corner might make you think the building is on the corner of the intersection. Their parking lot follows the curve the corner and people like to use it to skip the light when they turn right. Obviously after... a nano-second... the actually popular with their customers and routinely have 7 or more cars in their lot until like 10 pm everyday store said 'nope to dangerous'. Which it was it was kind of narrow along one road and the turn and there have been many close calls to accidents.
So they get 5 cinderblocks. Paint them bright yellow. And place them at a diagonal across the corner so that both halves of the parking lot are useable but you can't leave out the other half.
Apparently some person said 'huh.... bright yellow cement blocks about as tall as my car is from the ground... i can make it over them'
She drove over the blocks. she lodged the block under her car and couldn't move forward. obviously if you cant move forward you must move back. so she put it into reverse and actually manages to break the block in half and reverse about 4 feet backwords before the block part lodged in the undercarriage of her tiny sedan catches something, probably a cement seam and she gets stuck in place.
as i drive by there are 3 guys staring at the broken block and a 4th guy starting at the car while on the phone obviously talking to either the owner or a tow company while miss driver is on her phone still in the car looking like the cement block jumped up and rear ended her not she drove over a cement block you would have to have no sense of the world around to not know it was there as they far enough away from the entrances to the parking that even someone in a redneck truck can see them.
i was giggling with sick joy.
side note-almost mexico has the weirdest parking lots ever. the entrances are in weird places and weirdest layouts. if you want to get into some you have to go to the street behind the actually restaurants or store and by behind i mean that you can't even see the restaurant or whatever from that street but to get into the parking lot you have drive down a driveway that is only accessible from that street. weird.
