Parking Lot woes.
Hey folks,
Just like to vent a little. Why is it that when you park your car away from every other vehicle in an isolated part of a parking lot, that some schmoe will come and park next to you with their 1985 Pontiac 6000 or old 70s pick up truck with mud caked on the side?
What im getting at is the fact that people have a tendancy to park next to other people even if that means walking a little bit. At first, I thought that this frustrating tendancy applied only to my S2000, which people would park near just so that could "check it out" But alas, I was wrong!
People will park in the stall directly next to me, no matter what I'm driving, regardless of where I park, and how far I park from the store/mall/etc.
What is with that!
Sorry...just had to blow off a little steam.

when I was looking for Bosch oil filters I parked a Canadian tire, way out there no car around for like 6 stalls. When I come out I see this POS Chrysler beside me. WTF. We park away from everyone else for a reason, dumb asses.

Asif, please close eyes. Do NOT read this.
Some years ago, I used to carry little printed notes. When someone did a real dumbass park job, I'd stick one on their windshield just before I left. It's been a while so I don't remember exactly what I put but it goes something like:
Dear f***ing moron, where in the H*ll did you learn to park a car? Were you born stupid? Or do you practice each and every day to be this ignorant? I haven't inspected my car for any dents made by your rolling piece of sh1t you call a car but just in case I find something when I get home, I'm writting down a description of your vehicle and your licence number. I'll be looking out for you again. If there is damage, I WILL find you.
Have a nice day, dipshit!

Here's a little trick an old business partner with a Porsche once taught me. If you have to park in a stall between two cars, veer toward the car on the left, then veer sharply toward the car on the right. That way your car will be the maximum distance away from both car doors.
