This year there does seem to be more stressed responses being noticed. Not sure if they are from new community members who haven't yet let go of their daily work mentality which might have been filled with lots of stress filled situations, or if it's from long time residents that are noticing the growth and more traffic or ???
Doesn't matter what, it's just wrong to be so uptight about parking spaces. There's always another one to be found. This isn't downtown LA, New York, Chicago, there's lots around and generally a place to park a car or cart.
Since it's the holiday season, and that alone can put some people "over the top," I'll give them any space they want. It's not worth spoiling one's day about something that's really not significant. However, if they intimate they are "packing a piece," my cell phone dials 911 immediately and then I snap a picture. I'm pretty good with that phone camera if I do say so myself...
