With the current weather we've been having, getting a parking spot near your house has become paramount. 聽After hours of shoveling it out..the last thing you want to do is lose it to your pain in the ass neighbour.

There are several ways of claiming your parking spots in Vancouver. 聽The most common one I've seen is the buckets method. 聽I have no idea where people get these buckets, but I'm guessing possibly they once contained a years worth of laundry detergent or someone had garbage duty one too many times and just kept it. 聽The problem with these are that they are white so they blend in with the snow and smashing into them is fun. 聽Another method I've seen is the old lawn furniture method. 聽This normally involves the use of those white plastic chairs everyone had in the early 90's. 聽The best part of using them is that you're finding another purpose for these chairs, they're much better on the street than in some landfill. 聽They are also white so they suffer the same drawbacks as the buckets. 聽On top of that there's that slim chance that they promote loitering of teenagers. 聽'What....you put these chairs here...I'm sitting on them...what are YOU going to do about it?' 聽Also smashing into these is even more fun than buckets. 聽Lastly the most effective way I've seen is the use of coloured pylons. 聽These aren't that fun to smash, do not blend in with the snow, and also look very official. 聽Unfortunately they are too effective and will likely get stolen within a couple days. 聽The above exhibit combines the lawn furniture with the pylon. 聽I know if these chairs were in the alley they'd be gone, so I'll keep a close eye on how they fair out front.

I was doing super good in shoveling my sidewalk but then I got a super bad cold and couldn't do it anymore. 聽That automatically made me the bastardo neighbour, and guess what I got in return....

Dead crow on my front lawn....how's that for a shitty omen...
