Time for another parking thread!

[ZYBORG]

Its pretty irritating to see a guy double parking. I dont care what kinda car you own. If you cant park like regular human being, dont bring it out. Nothing screams "i am special and better than you" like double parking. Hope that douche's car gets whats coming to it.

Btw, love the jeep parking next to the vette, wish it would have parked closer... Lmao.

And to top it off the SOB was still sitting in his POS talking on the phone, like he was just hoping I would say something to him. Why are there jerks like that that can't just leave us alone?

All you have to do is look at the "people of walmart" to know you should not be taking any nice car of any kind there for any reason, if you even have to go to that place at all in the first place (not sure why).

Hahah very true. I take my girls car to places like that. I wish I lived like you though, where do you buy your toiletries and cheap groceries? Do you use an app to make the plebs do your caviar shopping? :P

if that's what you think double parking screams, then you my friend have tunnel vision, and can't think outside the box..

They say ignorance is bliss, I'm not so sure about that..

I don't take my car to Walmart because of the people, I just don't take my car to Walmart because it is Walmart. They have nothing I need.

When I park my car out in a parking lot, I think that mostly people are lazy by nature and want to park as close to the door as possible. Thus I don't need to park in the farthest spot, just farther than everyone else.

Why do I drive my Camaro to WalMart and take the chance of getting some jerk park a POS next to me even though I am way out in open area of the lot? Because the wife can't (or won't) ride with me in it so whenever I am able to go by myself in it I make all my necessary stops. Beside, what is the big deal with shopping at WalMart? They carry many name brand items and usually at lower prices that elsewheres. Plus I live in a small town and there are very limited other options.

I just park far away.

Let me guess Sir, you are one of the outstanding individuals that take up 2 spots with your ride while inconveniencing other motorists?

I guess everyone else's car is less important than yours, or maybe everyone should start taking 2 spots instead of one. While we are at it, why not take 3 or 4 spots just to be safe.

Maybe you should start a trend and take up 2 lanes while driving in order to prevent a possible side swipe. After all, it is only fair that you protect your car.

I would personally never do it, but I completely understand why people would want to take two spots. We shouldn't be bashing them - we should be bashing the jealous a-holes who want to hurt other people's property, who feel like they are the "righter of wrongs" (some kind of misled parking log superhero). As long as there are parking spaces left for me, I don't care how some Joe Schmo parks. I don't understand how someone's double parking causes massive anxiety attacks in other people....it makes no sense. I just don't get some get so torn up about the actions of others which provide them no personal consequence. It's friggin' childish.

[2Fast4Mu]

Honestly, I often want to go thank store management in places that provide extra wide parking spots. They're doing it right.

[Gee]

LMAO. This is exactly how I interpreted his post.

My point is I could care less how anyone else parks their car, I don't let stupid shit like that bother me.. But when I see someone parked out taking one spot or two spots I get it, and I don't blame them..

Some of you guys waste a lot of energy in what someone else does, I never get it..

Nobodys backyard is clean, not even yours, so why not worry about taking care of your own faults, and quit worring about what others do..

Frankly, I like the shopping cart idea!

The problem is not that it bothers some people. It is just WHERE they take up the extra spots, and then complain about it when some idiot does something to their car. That is what bothers people here on these forums. Not the fact that it occurs because we all know there are a lot of people out there who do not care for their cars. It is the point that someone does something like that, draws attention to their car, and then complains about it.
