Parking lot herd mentality

[Dartswinger70]

My wife didn't believe me when I told her about the stupidity of people, until one day when we took my Dart to a home renovation store. I parked as far from the doors as I could, dozens of spaces open between the front of the store and where I was. We were in the store for about half an hour, and when we walked out there were no less than 8 other vehicles crowded around the Dart, and still dozens of empty spaces.

I too have come back to my vehicle and found some asshat parked within 2 inches of my driver's door more than a few times.
Can't fix stupid.

I had my Dart in primer mid 200s. i parked far away in a parking lot, came out and a guy and his kid was tanding there oggling over it. i had to listen to "i had a Challenger back in the day..." "man this is neat, I havent seen one in a while..." etc.etc. It was ok but after a while I had to cut it off i said "well, I a have to go nice talking with you..."

speaking of idiots you do realize that vandalism is a criminal act. do unto others exactly as you would want done to you was clearly not in your upbringing. but what i really want to know is why did your dad have to crawl thru the passenger window. the trucks i'm familiar with have doors on each side?

[/QUOT ..I don't remember all of the details as I was only 9 years old at the time. I just remember him talking about it, was he in the wrong, very much so. I would never do anything like that.

I learned decades ago driving crew cab dooleys to park taking up 2 to 4 places, it works. But I parked way out in the lot and walked.

If you ever go to do bodywork on them, you'll care.

I know, that's why I don't plan to. When I get my dream cream-puff 1967 Riviera or Gen 5 Viper I'll park far away and either put out cones or park in the middle of 2 spots.

Besides that there's weather, bird ****, gravel on roads, jealous jerks... I'm not ready yet to own a pristine car and worry about all that. I just wanna drive.

Guy looked at one of my cars I "did" and says. "I see some filler YOU did not GET perfect!!!!" I said "I got rid of all the rust, got it straight and smooth enough to suit MY ***, and I drive it so it will never stay perfect IF I made it perfect to begin with!" You want to own it?, then you buy it and YOU make it friggin perfect!
