If anyone is not too polite, they will know it when they turn on the vent or A.C.
Fun Factor involved.
It almost makes you want them too.!
This thread alternates between amusing and pathetic. But this is way too far. While I despise stupid people that can't park, there's nothing that screams pussy like effing with another man's car. As Sammy J tells us in Pulp Fiction, "You just don't **** with another man's car!" I hope someone catches you in the act and gives you a spray can enema, then makes you eat the cat poo.

I agree.

Only time I would take up two spots was if I had a trailer.

While I agree with this code, it's also a violation of it to drive or park in such a way as to make your car scream out that the driver is a d'bag. That behavior needs correcting.

Fair enough, but if you're a man you "correct" it with the driver. The passive aggressive pussy effs with the man's car then runs away.

At my old office the security guard would place a large sticker on the side window with a message that the owner is in violation of taking up more than one spot.

A photo of the car and plate would be emailed to all the tenants in the building.

After 3 warnings they are suspended from parking in the lot for a period of time.

That should be an amendment in the US Constitution.

Agreed. I'm staying with the amusement factor.

It was Vincent BTW. Not Jules.

far too lenient -- there needs to be a penalty right off the bat, not after 3 violations

my proposal

1st violation - public shaming - and not just via Email; I suggest spending the lunch hour in the stocks

2nd violation - fine them & public shaming repeat

3rd violation - burn their car

4th violation - drawn & quartered in the parking lot

You can tar + feather them before the drawing and quartering.

This makes me flash back to childhood...I used to get so pissed and hurt that teachers would always tell parents of the kids that colored OUTSIDE the lines-'oh, you can tell they're so creative when they do that,' many a time I would blurt out, 'No he's not,, he's an idiot!!' -didn't make me too popular with the 'creative' kids...

I agree, if I do something that makes you mad, come and see me. You touch one of my vehicles.....................................Well lets just say you do not want the chit storm that will follow.

When I am out in my old pickup, and I see people parked in multiple spaces, I will go out of my way to park right next to them so close to their door they (and me as well) have to use the passenger door.

Better that than right on top of you!

I ALWAYS take the far spot and get as close to the curb as possible. Inevitably someone will still come park next to me.
