I do this too, but because i do a pretty shoddy job at parking, so i'm afraid of dinging up my car on someone elses.

But to add to the discussion, my mom was once bitched at by someone the same way luke did. Except she was in the parking spot simply to quiet up my little sister for a second, and parking in the middle of the parking lot wasn't ideal.

I think having their car towed and them paying a large fine is a good enough punishment.

And the money from those fines should go to helping disabled people

A little intense in the execution, Luke, but I do appreciate the sentiment.

From the bottom of my crippled heart, I thank you.

really if you guys became enraged by this you should come to Greece.

I see people parking on the sidewalk atop of THE FREAKING BLIND PATH.

you know. It's floor tiles with bumps on them so blind people can feel them and walk on it to be safe. AND PEOPLE FREAKING PARK ON THESE. I want to break the car's windshield every time I see that.

Just help the local blind people by installing sharp spikes on the end of their canes so that they accidentally impale the tires that are in their walking path. :lol:

Ok, not really, someone's innocent ankle would get stabbed.

Meh, I take fat jokes all the time, In fact, Usually people that come at me with a fat joke usually leave flabbergasted or completely owned.
Example: Fat joke guy) Hey fatass
me) ITS A THYROID PROBLEM
Fat joke guy) And what are you taking for that...(cut him off)
me) PIES!
IT was funny when it happened. He was confused as hell, Basically the formula for Win is,
Offense, Stereotypical answer, Stereotypical response, Unexpected Answer, Funny look.

In an alternate Universe:

HEY THERE NEIGHBOR-EEN-O! Whacha-whacha-what do YOU think YOU'RE doing?

Huba-Buba Whaaaaa?

I said what Whacha-whacha-what do YOU think YOU'RE doing? You and your Chinese phone book are just going to leave the cart blocking a handicap spot?

Dur. What?

Can't tele-tubbies walk fifteen flopping feet to put away a cart? I mean look at you. You need to jazzercise you squeaky french door!

They got people who get paid to put the carts away.

And people also get paid to make "double pits to chesty" commercials. Is that an excuse? (At this point I see her son in the passenger seat, completely starving). What kind of example are you setting for your son? And look at him! Look at your turd burglarizing son! He's got potential to be a center in the NFL, and Deal-A-Meal could improve his chances (At this point the kid, who is probably 12-14 eats a Snickers).

You mind your own beeswax!

And you go enjoy a low calorie milk shake for lunch and have a sensible dinner 5 nights a week, and start a new life full of taking pictures with newspapers by PUTTING THAT DING DANG DONG CART WHERE IT BELONGS.

With pleasure! (kicks the cart with such force it lands on the store's roof) Did that fill you with delight?

What would fill me with delight is if you either learned about responsibility by reading Spider-Man comics, or if I could watch your family engage in a game of Twister.

(Gets in her car and gives me the black power fist)

NICE EXAMPLE YOU'RE SETTING FOR YOUR FUTURE HALL OF FAME NFL CENTER SON!

(son rolls down window, gives me the thumbs up, and opens a roll of mentos).

Good work man - I'd never have the balls to do something like that even if someone was doing something really anti-social such as that. Hopefully it will be the defining moment in that kid's life where he realises he doesn't want to grow up and be a fat, lazy slob like his mum. You never know, you could have changed his life for the better! :lol:

No, I don't. You're right. If my wife were in a wheelchair and I saw some fat lady hogging the spot I'd probably be a little rude. But I would like to hope I'd have the tact of not screaming at her in front of her kid.


EDIT: And I don't want to get in an internet forum fight. I shouldn't have posted anything in retrospect and I won't be posting anymore. Pacem faciam; silens ero.
Hey man, no offense taken.
