Default I really hate all morons that double-space park.....

On the way back to work from lunch today, I decided to stop by the bank. So I got behind this Mercedes-Benz CL500. As we both pull into the bank, there were 2 open spaces right in front of the bank. This moron decided to take the last 2 open spots and double-park right in front of the bank.

I know it is a really nice car and all. And if you don't want people to scratch/dent your car, then park the damn thing way far out and then walk your azz in. People can careless if anyone tripple-space park the car out there. But it is definitely a big "no-no" to double-park your car right in front of any store, regardless of what car it is. How stupid is that? That is just asking for trouble.

It was so tempting to pull my P.O.S daily beater Camry and park it couple inches right next to his driver side. Let's see how he likes it when he has to get his punk azz in through the passenger side.

Some people, I tell you, just has absolutely no common sense or courtesy at all.

I totally agree!!!!!! If you are worried about your car, don't park close up. You can park however you want in the spaces way out that no one was going to use anyways! It's called courtesy people!

I would have double parked right behind him and let him wait for you. Then say, I needed to find a spot and this one looked the nicest.

I don't like to be parked next to so I park far and walk it. One reason is to be considerate and to watch out for myself. The other is that when you do a bastard thing like this, it tempts people to vandalize your stuff that you were trying to keep out of the way.

This reminds me of the Simpson's episode where Marge becomes a policewoman. She catches Homer at the Kwik-E-Mart taking up 3 handicap spots. Awesome episode!

My friend has a mustang GT, he double parks his car all the time, it annoys me so much (especially because it's just a stang), but he's paranoid that it will get hit.. When I park, I tend not to park next to 2-door vehicles, and SUV's, but I won't pass up on a good spot.. I would probably park far away or be way more careful if I had something expensive like an S2000, but my parent's Accord can take a beating

one time, i left a note on the windshield of a car that took up 2 spaces that said "if i were a vandal, your car would be the perfect target because of the way it is parked..." i then parked my car about 50 feet away and waited for the guy to come out. when the guy saw the note, he litterally freaked out and began examining every inch of his car over and over for about 5 minutes. at one point, he even got on his hands and knees to check the paint on the lower parts of the car... it was hilarious!!
