So last Sunday sidruid and I accompanied several of my family members to New Hope, which is a ride of about 45 minutes. And while on the way there we started talking, and it seemed that both of us had pretty much always sat on the same side in the backseat when we were younger, and that as adults, we still kind of do. I naturally gravitate towards the seat behind the driver, and he always sits behind the passenger. It's not like either of us kick others out, but... yeah. So take the poll, it's just like research for social sciences.

ps. I'd like to wholeheartedly recommend the taco place near the train tracks in New Hope. Mmmm tasty!

Well, when I was little, I got to sit "on the hump" in the middle because I usually sat in between my cousins in big family outings. Otherwise I'd either sit up front beside the driver or in the back left, behind the driver. I still prefer to sit shotgun or behind when I'm not driving.

Coincidentally, today is hump day!!!

Sorry... I just couldn't resist.

I prefer to be behind the driver, though other than knowing that fact, I never really thought much beyond it.

It's okay. I forgive you. ;D

My grampa had a station wagon with one of those backwards-facing seats in the trunk area, and that was my preferential seat. In other cars, I'd either get the hump or sprawl all over the whole backseat, depending on if there were other people in the back or not. As an adult, I'm the driver 99% of the time, and when I'm a passenger I usually get shotgun, but if I'm in the back I tend to prefer driver's side.

We didn't eat around an actual table that often, more usually we'd grab food and take it back to whatever we were working on elsewhere. At other people's family gatherings, I tend to wind up at the kids' table or equivalent, which is probably fair enough considering I never really managed to "grow up". ^_^

My grandpa had one of those, too! I ♥ed it!!!

He called it the "dodo seat", "'cuz dodos flew backwards and that's why they died out!" *giggle*
