    [rant] I have a related complaint. It seems that everyone who shops at a supermarket thinks they have no responsibility for their shopping trolley (cart) once they've loaded their groceries into their car. Just leave the trolley in the next parking spot and just drive away. This, of course, leaves the next parking spot unusable. Fortunately I enjoy walking (I do at least 10 kilometres per day) so it's no big deal for me to drive to the outer edge of the car park and walk in. Heck I even put the trolleys in the designated spot once I've unloaded em. But it still pisses me off to see how lazy/ignorant other people are.

    I have a releated complain to that. Lots of people who shops at the supermarket thinks they have no responsibility of what they do with there doors when getting out of the car. *slam!* oops, there where a car besides mine, well i dont care i just igonore it and go on with my shopping. :mad: Thats one reason people park over several spaces. And if you drive to the end of the parkinglot and park with 5 free spaces on each side you can be sure that when you come out there is a car parked right next to you.:wtf: /Magnus

      Everytime I see some new car parked diagonally in a parking space I feel the almost uncontrollable urge to reach for my sharpest key and carve a nice messae all around their car. Or better yet, climb behind the wheel of my girlfriends 89 Volvo and see if I can straighten out their parking job. What on earth do those people think is so special about their damn car that they deserve to park sideways and take up three spaces. Just because they were dumb enough to fork over sixty thousand plus dollars doesn't give them a better parking space. They should be paying me for damaging my eyes looking at the shine on that overpriced peice of shit. Jared jparsons@jparsons.org www.prism.gatech.edu/~gte477n

      Keying the paint does expensive, criminal damage to the car and might land you in jail. But loosening the valve stems on at least two tires is fairly harmless.:cool: "Your village called -

If you let down two he/she will have to call someone to come help. If you just let down one he/she will spend time changing the tire themselves (hopefully in the scorching heat or driving rain :-D)

          Add to these bastards the ones who parked on places reserved for handicapped people! :mad: It's not about dumbness or laziness, it's just about lack of respect. Societies are more and more selfish, people more and more individualistic. Every man for himself! Behaviours like this one are just another way to show how the notion of respect is antagonist with the one of consumer society.

            sorry to hear that. There's a good ad teaser here, showing a car on a reserved place: "Exchange place for handicap"

                    Would it be considered as weird to make a remark to these people about their parking habits? As Roger suggests, loosening the valve stems of all their ties could give these people a good occasion to do physical exercises.

                      Don't just think about keying the car - do it! I do. I hate those shitheads so much that I have probably caused over $100,000 in damages against those assholes. There is no excuse for it. And yes - when I see the person who parked the car I get in their face until such time they run away or attempt to cause physical harm to me - at which point I act in self defense. There are some types that I truly hate and I feel entirely justified in making their lives miserable. As long as I can still get home in time to watch the SImpsons.
