Sorry if my reply seemed harsh, but to be fair, your original comment was pretty odd. Bumpers are designed to crumple upon impact.>> ^FlowersInHisHair:

They're called bumpers for a reason.

Music is from the Neverhood game soundtrack.

I don't think David Kamp (credited for "audio" in this short) was a composer or otherwise with that, so I hope they're not claiming the music as their own.


The audio made by David Kamp for this short was deleted and replaced by audio copypasta by a film student. It would be nice if someone could just find the original film. Here's the youtube description:

As a sound design project I came across this 3D animation called Parallel Parking by Agile Films directed by Yum Yum. Sorry David Kamp I deleted your stuff... but this was a sound design project. All rights to the makers etc. Music by Terry Scott Taylor, and sound effects from Freesound. (Next time I'll do my own foley work)

I'm not going to go as far as saying that mine is better than the original (it's probably worse) but I'm no pro so just chill and enjoy.

I don't get it. A ham fell on him? I'm not seeing any pun. Please explain this to my stupid self.


No stupidity at all from your side, I can't make any sense of it either so I guess it just is what it is. Probably just the "unexpectedness" of it that makes it funny.

It burns my ass to see people hit other people's cars and carry on like nothing happened.

When I first lived in New York and I would see people nudge to parallel park I was dumbfounded! Being originally from Michigan where cars are Gods, I just couldn't grasp the idea of nudging and it being ok. A couple years later I learned that's what bumpers are for! You can nudge quite a bit before any monetary or physical damage is done. Lot's of nicks and pings in NYC cars though, I'll tell you that.


Say WHAT? They are not meant for "Braille parking".

I hope you're being sarcastic, it's not readily apparent. The bumpers on a car exist so that, in an accident, the damage to your vehicle is minimized. The "5 mph bumper" came about after consumer groups fought to have execedingly minor accidents ( < 5mph ) do virtually no damage at all, to help keep cost of ownership down. It was never meant to take the place of competent driving skills.

But not all bumpers line up height-wise with other cars' bumpers. Most aren't made of steal and are actually painted. Etc. Therefore drivers shouldn't ding other cars regardless, IMHO.

My car has some pretty nasty dings and even bad grooves cut into it from other drivers rationalizing hitting cars like that and driving off.

Love that she managed to pop the window wipers on twice.


Don't forget about her stalling the car then thinking "it's fine where it is".
