I don’t hate you for what you did... I don’t hate the other guy for hating you because of what you did. I don’t hate the guy who posted on a message board about that guy who hated you for what you did….

I just hate all of you!

total disrespect to take up two spots! Why not just find one on the curb and park close to it parotecting one side of your car for sure! I have to agree, there Camaros not Ferraris. Some people on here tend to thing that these cars are something special! Sorry to tell you there not that special....

My biggest fear is someone going out of their way to intentionally damage my ride. Why increase the odds?

I have an idea. We will fill parking lots with pylons like at a boat dock where each slip is separate and the boat can fit in the space and that is that. People are so retarded about parking? This is a simple solution for parking and employment. We can pay some idiot to cut holes in the parking lot and bury poles in the spot so that it takes care of the double parking situation AND door dings. you have a rope slung between the two poles and you have just enough slack to catch a door but not hit another car.

A simple solution to modern life.

It seems like the common reasoning is that you do not need to take up 2 spots when your car is parked way out in the back of the lot because no one else is likely going to park there anyways. Then if that is the case who is going to be there to even notice how you parked and key your car?

More importantly, I have never heard of or experienced an instance where people were so infuriated about how other people parked that they felt the need to inflict damage on a car. Sure, if you park up front or in a frequently used area of the parking lot and you take up more than 1 spot then I can definitely imagine people getting upset. However, if you park in the back of a lot where there is usually only 1 or 2 other cars total, then I'm fairly confident that no one will care or even notice how many spots you take up.

Basically what I'm trying to say is that I believe WHERE you park your car is much more important than HOW you park your car.
OP, in an ideal world what your saying would be valid, but this is not the world we live in. People WILL go out of their way to disturb your car if you do that. I've seen it.

wow all you people who are giving the guy crap for taking up two spots are ridiculous. I bet half of you people saying the camaro isn't "special" spend hours a week detailing your car. Here let me come throw some paint on your car and tell me how you feel.

If you are in a large parking lot that will not fill up what does it matter if you take two spots? It doesn't! Hell Next time I see a semi in a parking lot taking up 15 spots I'm going to go key it. Thats ok they he is being disrespectful.

but you can't fit a semi in one stall unless it is Transformers edition semi then maybe it can transform into a Fiat 500. But I would love to see you key a semi, take a vid when the pissed off driver comes out to confront you.

I do not take up two spots. nor do I care if someone does. It is not the car that is "something special" it is more then that to some people.. I always wanted a camaro since I was 8 yrs old. I worked hard for this car I paid cash for it. It is a personal achievement of mine. Ya its not a ferrari, But it is mine and sometimes people are just proud of what they have. There is no reason to damage someone's car. I do not care if it is a yugo . So for me it is not the car that is speical. I just like to take care of my things. Sorry it is just a car to you, But it is not that way for others thinking it is just a car and not caring about how other people look at there's now that is disrespectful. Thats why people in parking lots are ignorant "its just a car" causes the the fear of people who care and or are proud of what they have.

Threatening to throw paint on someone's car has nothing to do with someone being an ass and taking up two spots. I know the point you're trying to make, but you failed miserably. Just because someone may take the time to detail their car and make it look nice it doesn't give them the right to be arrogant and take up multiple spaces.

I know what you mean, and I hate it. I have this old a$$ Infiniti G20 that keeps parking next to me in my dorm parking lot. I use the overflow lot that doesn't ever fill up so I can park my car by itself, and this guy keeps parking right next to me.
In all honesty though, he probably just admires my ride. And I should appreciate a guy like him parking next to me rather than a d!ckbag in a lifted truck or a clumsy sorority girl parking next to me.
dickbags come in all shapes and sizes
