THAT Is So NOT A Parking Spot!

Post by DLRFantasmic!Dan » Mon Oct 06, 2008 2:10 am

So, I went to the park today. As I was leaving the parking structure, I saw many cars parked in a Not - So - Parking Spot. They try to park their vehicle in a tiny area that doesn't resemble a parking space. It is that a part of the cart is sticking out in the middle of the traffic that can easily be hit.

Anyone know what I am talking about??

Yup,
When I stayed at the All Star Sports, we did see alloy of cars parked like that or they would double park the car so there would not be any nice spots near the front. :eek:

One of my biggest pet peeves are the idiots who get these freaking SUVs (stands for Stupid Useless Vehicles as far as I'm concerned,) and constantly park them straddling the line between two parking spaces. You inconsiderate pricks, just because you were stupid enough to buy a gas guzzling tank thats too big to fit in a conventional parking space, doesn't give you the right to take up two of them. Other people use the parking lot as well. If you're afraid your precious chunk of steel's going to get dinged, then stop driving the damn thing. You'll save money on gas as well. (I hope you enjoy your mile per gallon, or in the case of a Humvee, Gallons per Mile.) :mad:

What we need is a band of vigilante cooper minis that seek out these line straddlers, and then park in the remaining space of each of the two hogged spaces, as close as possible to the doors of the SUV. (The driver of the mini on the right would have to climb out the passenger side of their car.)

Last year I witnessed a classic Giant SUV Asshole Move: Not only was this Hummer taking up two parking spaces - those two spaces were HANDICAPPED.
