Me: *driving* “Wow, that is a really clean Daewoo Leganza. Most of those are either in the junkyard or should be.”

Friend: “Want me to take a picture of it?”

Me: *realizing I look like a complete dork for getting excited over the least interesting car ever* “No, it’s nothing, who cares?”

Friend: “You seemed interested in it, I’m gonna take a picture for you!”

Me: “You really don’t need to bother, we’re getting off at this exit anyway.”

Friend:

Kinja'd!!!

I’m even prepared to forgive her for the portrait orientation.

Sounds like she didn’t even roll her eyes, which I no longer expect even from family. She’s a good one.

She’s recently taken up bird watching and started to realize that bird watching and car spotting are similar in many ways.

Definitely - in the sense of ‘either you get it, or you don’t’. :)

See now, this is an awesome thing. I see a lot of cool cars all the time, but rarely take pictures because I’m alone in the car (or worse, my wife is with me haha) and have no dash cam.

We’ve joked many times that we’re dating in a parallel universe, but unfortunately she’s too female to be my type.

Sure, but the big difference I’ve found is that I usually have to worry about not dying while I snap a pic, which is seldom a concern when spotting birds.

I miss most of the interesting cars I’d like to show you guys.

I used to risk more pictures while I was driving, but these days I just tend to take fewer risks behind the wheel in general. Plus I now have a dashcam.

Also, Omaha is the type of community where if I see a car driving in traffic, chances are someday I’ll see it again when it’s parked.

See, I don’t have a dash cam. If I were serious about car spotting, I’d get one.

For someone who likes guys, she’s too female

I don’t know what that means... but It should be on a girl’s t-shirt.

Too Female.

This is me. For example, I was taking my dad to Walmart minutes ago and while he was looking at a nearby Challenger, I got excited for a first-gen Prius. But he knows I’m about that Jaloppo life so he took a picture for me too:

Also forgiven for orientation/potato pic.
