I probably would have done that now, bu when I was young I saw an exact same thing and I just laughed and kept on walking. Youth doesn't care.

This happened to my wife and I today when we were in her Murano.
We made a quick stop only to come out and see this when there were
No other cars parked to the left of us!!

Saw these two when my wife and I were leaving the food king today.
I just don't know which is worse? The guy who takes two spots or the
One who runs in to the cart?

In a previous life (i.e. before I owned the Z), that space next to the Mercedes would have been calling my name. I would have parked within inches of their passenger door, been very careful not to touch their car when exiting mine, and left them to assume the worst when they saw my parking job (hoping they actually cared about their car).

Is it just me, or does it seem like the average owner of a Mercedes Benz couldn't park a bicycle, much less their car? Haven't determined yet whether it's just stupidity, or truly an apathetic / I'm better than you kind of attitude.

As for motorcycle parking, worst I've ever seen was a guy who parked his bike in a normal parking spot, sideways, at the very end of it.

Full parking lot, looking for a spot. Hey, there's one ... you have got to be ******* kidding me...

As I was leaving work... Would hate to leave the office after a long day at work only to find I have to climb in over a transmission tunnel.

Hes blocking the entire aisle or driveway whatever you want to call it. This is near the front of the lot too, not even in the back of the lot.

This thread (and the way people park pretty much everywhere here in Edmonton) inspired me to make a big stack of these at the office the other day.

This JackA** decided he was going to pull his bigboy truck up on the snowpile and park. He spent ten minutes trying to dig himself out, luckily there was a truck driver making a delivery that had a shovel. I just sat back watching that right side rear tire spin and spin and spin. Dude was a total redneck; full on duck dynasty beard, dark blue mechanic style shirt, had to get a little old semi driver to help shovel his butt out.

Can you put up a pic of each individually? I'm going to throw a stack in the glove box.

If you are so inclined, you can buy sheets of pre-scored business cards and print your own. Most word processors have templates for making business cards (eg, OpenOffice, Word). Use a laser printer if you don't want the ink to run when it gets damp.

Yeah, the supply room in my office has none of that. I was looking to do this for free.

Use the templates and print on the heaviest paper stock you have handy. Cut with scissors or a paper trimmer.

Or better yet, go with Haboob's idea and order 'em from Vista Print.

I grabbed them all off google, just search 'parking cards asshat' and you'll find a ton to pick from lol. I made them in publisher with the business card template, printed them on heavy paper then chopped them up en masse with a big arm cutter.
