Locking him in

(i'm used to parking on the mm as we had only 3 parking slots on an enclosed parking lot at work, and we often squeezed 5 cars in there to avoid paying street parking)

I got so sick of these A-holes. First they con their way past the guard with some sob story, then they eliminate one or two of our resident parking stalls to park as close as possible to the ski lift. me, me, me ..

Ignorance of a social miscue, absent a kindly reminder, perpetuates repeat performances.

At a minimum, leave a note. If 1% of the recipients respond with changed behavior, you've done your job. The others remain a-holes, but at least an effort was put forth. Mother Teresa might have done better, but that's still good karma.

I would be tempted to parallel-park in back of his vehicle, especially if the lot is full; with or without a note.

I have no problem with folks parking "over the line" in an empty lot. Same with driving in that same empty lot against the painted directional arrows on the ground and taking the tags off of furniture cushions. I like to live on the edge. :-)

A lot of folks like to live on the edge. I see them every day.

Did you know....it's much more efficient on gas consumption when making a left turn, to stay over to the left.....as far as possible....lol....

So the 2 could talk to eachother.. After all, both are Porsche designed vehicles.

We had a blast with it, during morning rush hour
with an non demilled FN MAG to rest my arm on.

Call me crazy, kind of like the car on the left. Think it's a body transplant on a truck chassis or a custom suspension?
