Parking Lot Morons

Denied.

Obviously there were many that DID need them and she was happy to help, but the lazy didn't get far with her. Same with the drug seekers that memorized all the things they need to say to get pain meds after hours. LOL

My dad's had both of his knees replaced. He asked his surgeon (mostly out of curiosity) if he should park in the handicapped slot since they were usually close to the door since he'd just had surgery. The doc's answer was "Hell no-- I WANT you to walk as far as possible! Park as far away in the lot as you can".

It must have made an impression because my dad worked his tail off in "Knee Rehab School" and was a "distinguished grad". He's in his early 80's now and still walks several miles every day.

His buddy had the same knee surgery but blew off the rehab. He's now using a cane, thinking about a walker and definitely parks in the handicapped spots now!

When you look at all the fine young therapists helping you move your hand over your head and think: I would so enjoy bringing her home, sitting her on my lap on the couch, and READING HER A STORY

So it happened again yesterday. I’m tucked away in a corner. At least 25 empty spaces around me and I get this dumbass in another beat up car.

Buug959 · 09-15-2023, 12:45 PM

I came across this moron while out and about this afternoon. The photos don't show it very well but he could have easily gone about another 3 feet into his space. It still wouldn't have been perfect but it would have been better.

Had this happen to us yesterday. Some ninny in a Cayenne parked like that next to us. The driver was either quite skinny or climbed out the passenger side as they, miraculously, didn't dent or scratch my wife's car.

IMHO, it's all because they come in from the wrong angle and are too lazy to straighten-out.

Yes, how hard is it to back up and pull in so you are straight and not at an angle?

Lazy and inconsiderate.

I swear I was in the old thread when I posted this. . . I think.

Car-Addicted · 09-18-2023, 02:30 PM

I'm starting to feel self-conscious. The other day I pulled into a parking space in my Tacoma from a odd angle due to construction truck. I hopped out and noticed I was not in compliance with the parking police so I hopped back in and corrected my egregious violation of the parking code.

Hope no one had their iphone to record my transgression.

So the Minister of War & Finance and I go to dinner tonight at a nice little restaurant near the lake.

It's *always* crowded, so parking is at a premium.

And we saw this.

I could.... maybe.... MAYBE understand if it was a McLaren, 911TT, or even an M2C (

), but.... it's a COROLLA.

The driver took out three..... THREE parking spaces when the restaurant parking lot was almost full (I'm counting it as three because if you tried to park to their right, guaranteed that you'd get hit when they tried to back out).

Niiiice.

Didn’t grab a pic, but I had a guy decide that of all the vacant parking spots, the one right next to me is the best one. Hey at least it aint a flapper, it’s a pretty nice Merc S.

On second thought, parking next to a fellow nice car is a way to get both of you protected from beaters isn’t a bad strategy at all I guess… in case a beater decides to take up the vacant space next to you

DubaiRich · 09-20-2023, 12:55 AM

That's a pretty clean Corolla!!

My Publix has a few one-way parking lanes with angled spaces. It not uncommon to see some dipshit perform a cha-cha-cha so they can back into a space.

Goddamn lazy mf'ers.

Not sure when this happened, as I make a point to park far from the crowd. Most likely occurred in my apt building parking garage, but don't have any proof.
Result from an unknown encounter with a parking lot moron
