How to deal with douchebag parking

A slightly less passive-aggressive way of dealing with it:

It’s funny because lady parts are particularly yucky and need to be washed in a special way!

Another factor that doesn’t appear to be in play here but happens a lot in snowy places is when the parking lines are obliterated by snow and people take a guess at where the spaces are. Then the snow melts and it looks like they were being a grotesque cleaning apparatus for a part of ladies’ anatomy.

I just want a solution for the douches with the monster sub woofers and stereo systems. They can’t hear you if you yell at them, and it’s still illegal to shoot them…
what is left to us?

Someone needs to invent a hand held focused EMP generator.

It really pisses me off when people do this at my school parking deck… there is literally only so many parking spots in those decks and once they are full, you have to go to the other lots that are not as convenient (not that these are particularly convenient, but better than the other lots)… Also, sometimes people park in places that aren’t spots at the end of rows–once I was at the top of the row, and some guy had pulled in between me and pillar at the end. I almost couldn’t get in, but managed it somehow. I ended up leaving the person a note saying how uncool it was… I’m sure they cared. I can’t remember, but it seems they had some douchey sticker on their car… john galt maybe?

Yeah - portability probs. I’m sure there’s away…just haven’t found it yet. Thing that royally gripes me, is that the volume inside is nowhere near what the rest of us are getting hit with. It’s there specifically to annoy others.

Only idea I’ve ever had, is a programmable LED display, so you can get in front of them and tell them off. May be satisfying - but still doesn’t solve the actual problem.

Yup. One of my first post-college vehicles was an old Chevy van, ā€œonly wrecked badly onceā€, which had a big rusty gash all along the passenger side. Amazing how close you can park to another car without hitting it, and if you had to get out the back you could. It was also useful for driving in snow (heavy, and nothing I could do to it would make it any uglier), and the New Jersey right-of-way rule for merging onto highways or in traffic circles was that the uglier car wins.

If somebody wants to park their car across two spaces so nobody’s next to it, and they park out at the edge of a big parking lot, I’ve got no problem with that (except malls at Christmas.) But no, the person who does that where I work gets in early and takes up two spaces near the building (but not early enough to take the 1 1/2 space at the end that’s an artifact of diagonal parking.)

It all adds up to a funky situation.

I vote that going out of one’s way to ā€œpunishā€ a douchbag makes you equal parts douche. Just find a different parking spot?

Speaking as a guy who at age 41 finally eeked out enough money to buy his first new car (just a simple Kia, not anything fancy) and has had not one but THREE big door dings in 60 days from careless dolts who bust open, or let their kids fling open, giant doors in parking lots, I get this guy.

Given the wet ground and salt spray all over, maybe they were parking when snow covered the lines?

Spit on a window doesn’t cause any lasting damage, but it does send a message…

I don’t have a picture, sadly, but there’s a dude around town here with a shiny red Ferrari who is frequently at one of our multitude of Starbucks’. He parks in the spaces just fine, never bothers anyone.

But he owns a sign on a stick that says ā€œFerrari Parking Only, all others will be towedā€. He carries this around and sticks it in the ground in front of his car when he parks there.

I’ve got it! No douchey parking that could lead to retribution on your vehicle. No obvious vandalism.

Just a little dog poop carefully applied to the underside of the door handle on the driver’s side door…

Yeah, juvenile, disgusting, unenlightened etc… but gross and funny to my inner 10 year old.

I have a compact car. Someone taking up a quarter of the parking space? No problem. For me. I just start a trend of people parking in a sort of phase shift. I live in Indiana, where cars are sacred objects and douchebaggery is a form of worship.

best comment ever.
