I usually have my 3 year old with me, so I always use the handicap stall if it's available. It's a real pain in my ass if I have to help her use a regular stall.

They aren't just for handicapped people. They were designed to assist handicapped people. As far as handicapped parking spaces, those were designated specifically for handicapped people, although I think most of them should not have a wheelchair painted on them, maybe a big fvckin snickers bar. 80% of the people that nowadays use them are fat fvcks. That pisses me off, I think those lard asses should be the ones to park the furthest from the damn store. They need the exercise. Hell if they have a heart attack on the way in, then we will speed bumps. Another thing that pisses me off with the lard asses, what's up with the motorized scooters stores provide. I wouldn't mind just the scooters rolling around in the store, but when was the last time someone actually fit in one. Hell your lucky nowadays if the scooter is 1/4 the size of the fat ass.

i agree. my father-in-law is handicapped (abuse in vietnam and work). I hate it when some fat ass that is 300lbs takes the few spots there are. Or some teenage punk parks there just because they have a broken leg (yes they can get a temp parking sticker).


usually if its busy you see college kids park in the spaces (fvcking cops wont do anything about it). i like to make fun of them while fallowing them in the store. they never do anything. occasionally i will get threatned. im always tempted to go slash there tires but then i would be the one to go to jail. bah

One time I was using the handicapped stall when I came out to an elderly looking man in a wheelchair. He asked me indignantly "are you handicapped, sir?"
gathering all my courage, I looked him straight in the eye and said
"not now, but before I went in there I was"

If it's the only one that's open, or the only one that's remotely clean, I'll use it.

Otherwise, I'll just use the regular ones.

there was a shall we say a "hefty woman" who i would see everday on campus, she would go barreling around a corner in a building and cut it off, if someone is turning the corner they would get slammed into. she could careless. she would beep her "horn" @ ppl that were WALKING on the sidewalk and expect ppl to move instantly out of her way.
god i hate those things too, they are a safety hazard, especially when you got the fat woman using it for no other reason than being a fat woman.
and yes its okay to use the handi-capable stalls, i have and i will continue to in the future.
