I saw a loser tonight

[Ham Murabi]

Taking up two parking spaces sure touched a nerve. Kind of a "Fuck the System" by people with expensive paint jobs on their cars.

 

[JustReadIt]

I used to keep signs in my car for people that parked too close or took up two spaces and tape them to their windshields.

"Nice job parking asshole,
The next time this note will
be attached to a fucking brick.

Have a nice day."

I like this idea very much. Mind if I borrow it for a while?

I hereby nominate this thread for hijack of the year.

It started as a social commentary about people against, in, and taking advantage of the system and denegrated into a pissing match over who has the right or privilage to take up two parking spaces based on the MSRP of a paintjob.

ROCK ON Y'ALL.

I doubt the guy is "taking advantage of the system" yet, but I'm sure he will be in time. A lot will depend on when his parents kick him out of the house.
At that point he will discover that there are advantages to the system - find a job, keep it, don't get a woman pregnant until you are married, live within your means - and he will find he does all right.

Unlikely - paint doesn't necessarily make a car better, only prettier, and sometimes not even that.

That would be the case here. It's hilarious, even.

Best windshield note I ever saw (on my roomie's windshield):

"Hope you fuck better than you park."

 

[Cheyenne]

1987 Ford XF Fairmont GHIA with a 351 Windsor, Bathurst toploader gearbox, 4 speed Hurst shifter, painted in Ford Jarrah red with 9 topcoats clear mixed with lilac.
she's got the Symmonds rims off Allan Moffat's sierra running 19 inch on the back and 17 on the front, and gives 457 off the back wheels in 2nd gear on the dyno.
all original dark grey plush interior (immaculate) and screaming from a Pioneer Pump sound system.

i fucking LOVE this car

LOL!!

 

[phrodeau]

i agree... a prettier/better/superior car does not entitle me to be inconsiderate.

what DOES entitle me, is the fact that i couldn't give a rats about inconveniencing anybody else.
i'm a cunt, remember?

If you can afford a $10K paint job, you can afford touchups.

One better: you can afford to repaint the car parks with wider stripes to fit your car.

I have a door ding for you, Baby.

I have a door ding for you, Baby.

I'm with the "cross the lot" club.

We park between the lines like everyone else, but we leave a space between our cars.

If the lot ever fills up, we won't annoy anyone.

A little walk never hurt anybody; people pay to go to the gym.

 

[Bluesboy2]

i always use two parking spaces.
stops the other fuckers from hitting my car with their doors.
the paintjob on my car cost over 10k, and i don't need some ignorant shit putting chips in it, tyvm.

That is VERY assholish behavior. When I was younger I keyed peoples cars for that.

Laughing at you for putting a $10,000 paint job on a 1987 Fairmont grandma car doesn't make me a stalker. It just points out you're nuts in addition to being an asshole.

I should be getting my new car in the next day or so (assuming it is delivered today as scheduled.) I will never park it taking up two spaces. I will park it, for awhile anyway, at the end of a parking lot row where there are no other cars. I'm supposed to be walking a few miles a day for exercise so it won't kill me to walk a few more yards to get to the door of a store.

People who take up more than one space for their car, especially this time of year when people are Christmas shopping and spaces are at a premium, deserve whatever happens to their precious cars.

Good for you. I've parked at the "far side" for a long time, within the lines, and never had a problem. Taking two spaces is asking for vandalism.

A car is JUST a tool to make you more mobile. No more no less. It is not a "statement". Or if it is you have issues.

 

[Cheyenne]

Well, it will be a change for me. My current 8 year old car has enough dents and scrapes in it that I just don't care if it gets another door ding. Getting the closest parking space is more of a game than a necessity. Patient1 reminds me it's nuts to go for the closest space when I'm supposed to be walking anyway, but it's the competition!

Now I'll have to change my mindset again for awhile to defensive measures. At least until the car is a few years old and has a couple dings in it. Once that happens, I'll be back to the closest space competition.

you're not seriously saying that you're going to change your behaviour in order to protect your car now, are you?
coz that would be...... you know....... wq-ish cunt-like!!!

park like normal - because people would never ding the doors on your shiny new car.
they're better than that!
aren't they?

i used to have a tiny car. i often was able to squeeze into the sliver of a spot left open. it was a fuckin' shame that driver-side door of the thoughtless bastard's car usually could not be opened wide enough for entry afterwards.

What they might do out of carelessness is nothing compared to what they can do when they're motivated.
