Parking Spot Ettiquette.

[|A-Man|]

Real talk though yall can't be caught slipping. My dad used to have his eyes wide open when he saw a guy trying to swoop in and steal his spot to the point he was willing ram his car in to theirs just so there'd be a much bigger problem than getting a spot

Cuz it's like where does a person get the nerve to do that.

I want to do that but in a rented car.

 

[jthagreat]

in a clear level headed mind state, i hope i just keep on pushin. but no one likes to wait, and no one likes to have to wait longer cause someones being inconsiderate.

 

[waitwut]

i was in the car when some dude stole my moms parking spot
it didnt get to her but i was heated honked at him and stone faced him as he got out the car
if i was alone though...

You are 100% in the right, heck I would just point and laugh as I drive around those idiots.

This.
I'm too cautious to put myself in a position for someone to try something on me after the fact. 

You never know how someone's day is going; good or bad.

Dude really said "brake fluid?"

[cincoseisdos]

I keep my cool.....
































































Until I make my way to my car as i'm leaving, If I see that mother +%%* ing car?

As I drive away

 

[swag odie]

No e-thuggery, but heads would most def roll if I saw someone keying or messing with my car.
That said I have never stolen or had my spot stolen.

 

[thapointguy]

Never encounter that situation. I'm usually level headed but if it were to happen, a spit to the door handle should be enough. Make sure to use your turn signal to let ppl know your intention.

Yes. I said Brake Fluid as it can easily ruin paint almost like a paint stripper.

Keep

 as I never implied cutting the other persons brake lines which is what I'm sure you were implying.

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt but please do tell me how someone can be killed by pouring brake fluid over a car hence ruining the paint.

Go Ahead. I'll wait.

Apology accepted. I will carry on with not letting anyone walk over me like that.  

You go ahead and carry on with your female canine donkey parting words.

Situation like this presented itself late in the summer. Two white kids probably a few years younger than me stole a spot from me. I just sat behind the spot and honked for a good 10 seconds so they knew what was up. Got inside (In-N-Out) and was in line two people behind the two kids. I was with my girl, so there wasn't really much I could have done in terms of stepping to 2 guys like I was gonna do something. Could have easily defaced their vehicle but honestly more satisfaction comes from rising above the situation, being "the bigger man" and going to eat my double-double peacefully without that petty revenge weighing on me (This is obviously my personal opinion. If someone knowingly steals your spot they're basically asking to have their car keyed, so if that's what you want to do, go ahead).

Now had I been with one of the homies as opposed to my girlfriend, who knows what my thought process would have been.

If you gonna disrespect me like that, you best believe im not just gonna take that and walk away.

They snooze, they lose.  How the hell is anyone supposed to know they called the next open spot if they wait at the end of the row?  Do what everyone else does.  Drive around and when a spot opens up put on your signal.

Blatent lack of respect for the entire neighborhood. Essentially telling everyone "I don't care if you have to circle the block for 40 minutes or park half a mile away and walk."

She even has an illegally acquired handicap permit so that she doesn't have to worry about alternate side parking/meter tickets.

Be hilarious as @!%% if two Smart cars boxed her in on each end...

I've never dealt with this personally yet...but wherever I'm going better not be important, because I'm definitely dipping if I get mad enough to @!%% up somebody's car. All that said...another issue related to parking spot etiquette:

Have any of you guys dealt with someone not giving a @!%% how they park in a space and boxing in your driver's side door? It's like forreal....you couldn't take an extra 30 seconds to correct your goddamn parking job? To me, that is something that'll definitely warrant a keying or some busted up panels.

 

[getyashinebox]

Even worse is parking over the line ... makes me want to powerbomb the owner through his own windshield

LD's my hero

 

[sheistbugz]

Someone stole my spot once at ikea in BK. Waited a minute or two for them to exit the car and rammed their rear bumper, had it almost hanging off. I would never steal a parking spot, I've seen much worse things done to cars before

Same treatment goes for those who park like %%@# and leave ZERO room to get back into the whip

had it happen when i was on the passanger side and i couldn't open my door. i ended up having to go out through the drivers side and this pissed me off.  i proceeded to give the car blocking me a nice dent, some key marks, and squirted the extra hot sauce packets from what i ordered from taco bell on it and left a note on their windsheild polietly asking them to be more considerate when parking next time,
