REVELATION: I think that some ppl can't gauge the parking spot lines and use other vehicles as frames of references, but still, cmon!

Ofc I moved to another spot pronto, she was making me crazy nervous.
I agree with your revelation, I've told my wife that several times, they can't park without lining up next to a car and like one that won't bash their doors. There was a picture going around in the 80's that you print and keep in your car. Its Donald Duck shooting a bird and saying, thanks ahole, next time leave me an effing can opener so I can get in my car.

I'm normally ok if it's a BMW or MINI cause there is a sort of hidden understanding about what we are doing.

There was a supermarket near me where the 5th floor parking (which was unpopular since most parked on 2-4th where the elevator was) was full of BMW's - and some Rolls. It was almost like a small club where if you drove a BMW you just parked there for peace of mind - it was great. E46's, F10's, F01's, G's and pretty much any BMW.

I read your post wrong. And jumped at the opportunity for my standard response anytime someone asks if I can take a joke or if I'm offended.

Whooooops

I hate this with a passion, I find a space away from everyone and some d*icsk parks next to me. My OH does this all the time, I say "hey park there, look no other cars" and "yet, park's next to somone's 12year POS dodge

No wonder there are scratch marks over the car.

MINE man, I have a minor heart attack if a leaf falls on it !

I don't understand the mentality, full car park, ok I get it, empty, like WTF

Back in the day I was always told (as a anti-theft advantage) to always park next to a more expensive newer car than your own.

The idea a thief wants the merc rather than you 20 yo Ford

doesnt apply now
