QFT - I went to a school that has a very large football / party culture. Nothing described above has anything to do with "college shenagigans." Honestly, I'm not sure how someone who does that even gets into college (or quite frankly how pushing a car into an intersection isn't reported / investigated). That would get you shot in these parts.

This was in Texas, we don't shoot people for no reason here.

What do you think would have happened to the guy that pushed one of those cruiser cars into an intersection?

In all honesty, I'm not sure that you are going to convince anyone that pushing another person's car into an intersection is no big deal. You seriously believe this is acceptable behavior for anyone regardless of age?

This. Priorities are all out of whack. I belong to a Gen5 Camaro forum and it is full of vandalism stories. Most of them come from apartment complex parking lots.

I live in a $300,000 (at least that much) 3200 sq. foot home with a spacious front and backyard.

I drive a second hand SUV that I paid $8,000 for. LOL!

I just sent this to like 10 people. Hilarious.

I had a buddy in college that drove a Dodge 3500 with a huge grill guard and steel rear bumper. He used to push cars around all the time. I remember one time I was with him when an old lady in a cadillac was sitting at a green light for like 30 seconds as he honked and screamed, "MOVE, FUCKER" out the window. Finally he just put it in low gear and pushed her into the intersection so he could get around. Unfortunately her rear bumper caught on the grill guard and was ripped off. It fell off the truck after like a quarter mile though. :D

Just college shenanigans man. I remember being in the backseat of the same truck when he was taking his big bro (fraternity) back to his parents house to sleep off an epic amount of boozing (that kid was a no kidding alcoholic.) Drunk bro reaches into the center console, grabs a glock 27, goes, "is this thing loaded" and fires a round out the passenger side window. This was in the middle of one of a neighborhood in one of the most affluent cities in the US. We were shitting bricks for the rest of the night.

21 year olds should probably not have giant, powerful, indestructible trucks. Except MRAPs. But they only have those in places where it doesn't matter what they wreck. :D

People get easily pissed off at poor parkers. John Connor is a prime example.

People are idiots? No way! I'd next have expected someone with such an elaborate history of posting intelligence such as John Connor to be one to fly off the handle if someone parks too close to his precious car.

And, take note of the picture, loki appears to have urinated on the car!

I park crooked but within my stall. Not over the line or close to the other car. Some jealous person still vandalize my car. Lucky I drive a cheap car. Still...

Some towns situated near a job only do have apartments with very little to no houses so apartment living is a must for some people no matter their pay grade.

No excuse for this, no matter how the chick is parked, the vandal needs to have the sh** kicked out of them.

I love that if you have a car nicer than a common grocery getter you are percieved as a douche bag with a little wee wee. People aren't allowed to be into expensive cars but women can blow $500 or more on a purse just to use to go shopping for more purses with?

One isn't allowed to have anything on the nicer spectrum of things with out being assumed to be able to afford 10 of them and completely disposable.

I bellieve its just a fact of life that if you have a nicer car other people will be jealous of you. When we moved to an upper middle class neighborhood and purchased a new car some neighbors were resentful. I was very surprised....

A corvette isnt even in that category either. Completely affordable grocery getter for a lot of people.

And yes, Psychology 101.

Wow, almost makes me appreciate you jokers.

:awe: were not all that bad are we? We just object to irresponsibility and lack of care for other peoples hard earned property. I still cant believe that you would admit to the shit you've done... frat-boy or not that was stoopid.

I didn't admit to anything I've done. I just saw some stuff. It was a long time ago.
