*EDIT* EITHER READ THE ENTIRE THREAD OR DON'T REPLY IM SICK OF REPEATING MYSELF ABOUT THE SAME STUPID JUNK


Well today I got off work, and in the parking garage that is attatched to my work building, I obviously park there. I park on a wing of the garage that is almost deserted and park at an angle next to the ramp that leads to the wing. This takes up two spaces, which only one space is usable because if two cars park in both spaces it blocks on car in because of the ramp.

I see a note on my windshield, it reads.... It is not a BMW, its only a Honda, no need to take up two spaces.

signed. BMW owner.

WTF, this tool doesn't have enough balls to put his name. I got an idea of who it might be so I'm thinking of confronting the guy Monday since we're off tomorrow and asking him if he's got a problem to just say so and we'll take care it.

What would be worse is if he has one of the POS BMW's, like the Z3. I'd laugh my A$$ off.....

I once came out from class to find a note on my windshield that read "your car looks gay". This wasn't my S2000, it was my previous car. I got a pretty good chuckle out of it.

The type of car really doesnt matter. If you own a Yugo and you love that Yugo and keep that car spotless you have every right to keep it safe. I don't support taking two spots when they are needed, of course if there is space go for it.

Regardless, the type of car really doesnt matter it's how important the vehicle is to you.

We would all be better off smacking people in the head when you see them in insanely nice cars smoking, and eating or just not taking good care of them.

well the double parking thing is like this, the spot to the right is worthless because if someone parks to your left you're stuck behind the ramp and can't move anyway, and the angle to pull in automatically puts you in a doulbe park mode at an angle, unless you want to parallel park in the space to the right and take the chance of being blocked in by some idiot.

at the statement, its just a Honda... yea its a Honda, but they Just have a BMW....woopy doo, not like BMW is superior. Wanna talk about wankers...

I agree. He probably doesn't really think that way, in fact he might really like S2000s. Maybe he doesn't even drive a BMW. But he was probably pretty cheezed at you taking two spots and knows the number one way to get under most S2000 owners skin is...

IMHO the real solution is to never take two spaces, ever. I don't do it because even if there are plenty of other spaces, I understand that it just makes some people mad. Because really it's all about whether one person or their stuff is that much more important than anyone else.

Besides I'd rather get a dent than get keyed- much easier to fix. Really you should be glad he chose to get in your head rather than mess with your stuff.
