I know what you're saying - it doesn't come easy working at Staples either, but the logic that you used to park the car doesn't work imho

No one wanted to park anywhere near him, and I guess he parked that way because he didnt want to get the car scratched. What a loser.

Had an idiot at work with a big suv all ghettoed out who would do the exact same thing parking longways across more than 3 parking spots in a prime area. He always came in early and got the spots first so me an another guy just started parking alongside his front and rear bumpers leaving no room for him to forward or back without hitting us then we would hang out in the break room after work for about 45 minutes just to piss him off. He would get hopping mad yelling at us everyday saying he was going to call the police. We just sat there and laughed at him. took him about a week to get the message. he parks way off in an empty part of the lot now.

the point is you'll get your car scratched up one way or the other eventually. if you care about it so much, don't buy a new car!

I always love these threads where people come on for sympathy, and all we do is tear them a new one :D

There's no excuse for driving - or parking - like a complete moron.

If you don't want your car to get scratched, put a cover on it and leave it in the garage, then get someone else to drive. Your car WILL get scratched sooner or later, deal with it.

Damn... what a way to end an amazing day at the park trying to get things working again.

New host and both pictures

Oh yeah... don't forget to consider the shadows in both pictures.

My opinion...

something tells me your still in your teens

I have to admit that you are double parked. But in response to Vadatajs' quote listed above-----

Vadatajs: You little f$cking chickensh$t! It's people like you who have no respect for other people's property. Property that they work hard for, paying the man before getting paid themselves in order to buy themselves something nice. But oh no, you liitle f$cking $assturds have to go and do something as cowardly as keying someones car. If I ever catch someone keying a car they will be in the damn emergency room getting my left foot removed from their ass, and my right fist removed from their throat. You gutless asswipe.....if you had any real balls you would meet the person face to face and tell them that you don't agree with the way they parked....yeah right...you'd probably piss your pants before you had the nerve to do that.

When you get your Z8 and park it like that, I will only think you're an asshole. When you park your chevy like that, I think you're an asshole, punk-kid idiot.

WTF is everyone's beef over it "only being" a Chevy? I'd rather drive my car than a POS Ford, Dodge, or some foreign car. Don't like the way I park? Too bad. It was originally something to ask a mere opinion, not an all out bash me, what I drive, or how I chose to park my car. To the people who agreed with me, thanks... Everyone else... you better believe if I were to ever catch anyone (including people on here) mess with my car, you'd have a 19 year old punk giving you a tattoo of Easton right across your head. Just my two cents. I'm done with this.

Actually I don't think one person agreed with you, and if you tried to give me a tattoo of Easton across my head I would give you a piercing of Hydra-Shok IN your head.

I agree with the majority of the folks that you brought this upon yourself AMD but I have no idea where the over-the-top hostility is coming from. I've just gotten a new car too, don't cars in black look great? Always loved the look of the new Cavalier, especially the updated 2000 model, but there was no way I was going with a domestic this time around. :)

AmusedOne has some good tips on keeping your car ding-free that I've been unconciously following myself. I've never seen a ticket given for parking like this and I'm guessing if you parked way out there, there wasn't really a reason to give a ticket since there must have been a gazillion spots free other than the one immediately beside you? Sounds like that cop was being a bit anal, so my condolences.

BTW, try using one of the links in my sig for picture hosting. :)

Good you got a ticket for being a jerkass and parking like that. If I walked past your car and saw it parked like that I would have spit on it and kicked your door.
