Pics?

No they snagged the bombshell before I could. Luckily no damage to the car that I've noticed. More upset that someone would even attempt it

Does anyone else get annoyed when they get to work early, only to see one of those coveted corner spots taken by the same white Honda civic? I mean I know I shouldn't hate, he cares about his car too, but for the love of god can't you at least keep your car clean? A dirty Honda civic always taking one of those few spots is like a smack in the face! Anyone else? Or am I just a terrible person

No your not terrible. I have a similar situation in my parking garage. Its a race to get there early and grab the best corner spots on the top of the incline.

I used to get so mad because 50% of the garage would be empty but every level would have someone parked in the good corner spots.

I finally gave up on it and now drive to the freaking top (11-13 floors) and most people are too lazy to park that high up. I get the corner spots up there!!!!

I am not the only one with the this thought process regarding my cars. First, the dirtbag that parks next your car at the end of an empty parking lot. My car is not co-dependent, thanks anyways. Second, the prideful 2000 corolla owner that believes his car deserves the corner spot. Actually you can put that wherever you want and nobody will hit with reasons unknown. Third, one shoulder never have their car hit by a shopping cart, other person rubbing against , or any other object. It is absolutely absurd! If I had the time I have always wanted to sit in my car and wait for the idiot that parks next to me in a desolate parking lot. And just ask his/her reasoning to park beside me with all the vacancy. If someone dings my door and I can catch them negligently walking away. Fists of fury my friend! It is not petty to approach the shithead, it is petty to walk away after doing that to someone's ride!

They still have my car. Im going over it with a fine tooth comb when they are done. Hopefully no other damage occurs.

Have them get you a new bumper and tint for free.... You could go to a shop that more careful than that....

I consider people who park parallel are better driver, and being in front of them means they can see my car clearly.

Best advice in this first world problem thread.
