Hate to burst your bubble, but the person you're speaking to is most likely not going to see this. You'd be better off just hanging out at your car and making your threat in person.

If "parking too close" is inconsiderate, what would define "an ice pick would have found its way to your tires"?

Dude, you ain't right. Yes, you were inconvenienced. Yes, the golf cart driver was extremely inconsiderate. But to threaten to damage his cart? That's just wrong.

Ah yes, the ice pick! The symbol of Christmas cheer and Christian love.

We all know your sarcastic humorous style of writing at times and take it with a grain of salt.

Tell us, though, how you managed to get out of that tight parking space without committing a criminal act that could have landed you in big and expensive trouble.

Easy to push it out of the way, we do it all the time in our garage. After all, they are only dinky toys!

I believe my other half used to have a card with an appropriate message on it when someone would park too close at the airport parking garage:cus:.................

Better he uses his ice pick than using his Glock. Just another reason why I won't carry.

Got out but most likely ground some serious flat spots into the tires & the tires on her car are not cheap--different sizes front & rear--rotating is not possible

WOW a rough couple of weeks for you 1st the street legal golf cart now boxed in.....lmao what's that old saying you reap what you sow....HMMMMM
Yep, karma is a bit-h, ain't it? On Aug 5, the same poster griped about a golf cart at his postal station in a post titled Do Golf Carts Have Reverse. He stated he "felt like getting in front of him and making him wait." Wow! Talk about being bitten in the butt! :coolsmiley::coolsmiley:

Well, Chatbrat, sorry to rag on you a bit. Merry Christmas to you and your family from the Sandtraps.

We went down the LSL last night and noticed several cars that had parallel parked on the various streets being boxed in by golf carts that pulled in between them. My first thought was I need to remember to use the parking lots instead of curb parking come winter season. I always wonder what the cart folks are thinking when they squeeze in between two cars.
