One thing I learned a long time ago: if you don't expect anything good from people you don't know you won't be disappointed.

I understand that it's not intentional but most of the time it's because of people not being aware of their surroundings. Similar to drivers that text or are on their phone, but that's a whole other post and that pisses me off too. What really rustles my jimmies is when people intentionally do damage to cars and have no respect for other people's things.

OK, that's it. Rant time.
Ready? I was sitting in my car waiting for the wife to finish work. Some guy, maybe in his late 40s gets out of his $1000 shitbox and opens his door onto mine. It wasn't a hard opening just a bit of a clunk. Now, I know accidents happen and I don't take particular care of the outside of my car, just a wash every now and then. I wasn't mad at him opening his door on to mine; what really annoyed me was the blasé attitude he had. No apology, just a "Hey, do you want to swap cars ha ha ha?"

GM had the right idea with those Saturn plastic door skins.

Unless you live in cold climates! Sombody backed into the side of my wife's Saturn when she was driving by during a really cold day. A light touch that may have scuffed the paint and left a small ding in metal caused the whole quarter panel to explode. Plastic shrapnel everywhere. I guess there is always a compromise.

Just today, saw a very new Lamborghini Haracan Spyder parked in a local supermarket car park. The car park is on a slight slope and I was watching drivers, shoppers doing their thing and notice a guy unloading his shopping into his beat up SUV. Unattended trolleys have a habit to roll away downhill and finding expensive things as bump stops! Yep, it rolls away and comes to painful stop against the Lambo! Och!
