What can I say some people will never get the hang of parking. One can only picture this driver attempting to parallel park. LOL

At least you had room to get in the driver's door. I was down at the colony plaza parked prefectly between the lines. Some Ah in 3/4 ton truck pull so close I had to crawl over form the passage side.

Default Entitlements



What the OP captured is "attitude" "Attitude" abounds around here. Its name is "I am retired/old" and hence entitled so don't get in my way. Its evident on the streets, on multi-modal pathways on golf courses in stores and at the town squares. I can do what I want to do, I can go as fast or as slow as I chose and my needs come first

My wife and I were at ALDI's one day cashing out when a woman came up to the cashier set her purchases down and said please check me out. the cashier said of course I would be glad to but please go to the back of the line and the line was indeed way back....that's attitude

A woman at MVP walked up to another member and told him to get off the machine because she needed to use it and stood there trying to intimidate the guy to leaving...that's attitude

Yesterday I proceed into a intersection on a frontage road when workmen stopped me and were redirecting traffic. a guy coming in the opposite direction was trying to make a right hand turn and screaming at me to move but ignoring the fact that construction was the cause....that's attitude

Thankfully most of us leave our attitude at home

Personal Best Regards:

I was waiting to check out at Joann one day, long line. Woman ahead of me is already checked out, takes a sandwich out of her bag, eats it, then takes out a candy bar, eats half of it, wraps the uneaten part and puts it back in her bag and finally picks up her purchase and leaves the store. Wow.

Many times this is where an automobile key provides parking lot justice.

Many years ago during the go-go 80's, I was following my wife's car when a person in a BMW cut her off & almost forced her into a drainage ditch. I waved her on & followed the person into the Madison,YMCA parking lot-out stepped a person wearing suspenders & carrying a gym bag, I said,"do you always drive like that"--He said,"I don't have time to talk to you"

In there era before security cameras, & checking that no-one was around , I promptly cut off all 4 of his tires valves with a pair of diagonal pliers

Guess he had to spend plenty of TIME getting his car towed & tires repaired.

One day this week a guy stopped at the end of a tunnel. He had the tunnel blocked

and interfered with the traffic going by the tunnel. He was talking on his phone.

This is reason number 7 for remaining anonymous on forums.

never heard the phrase "two wrongs don't make a right" or you choose to ignore it. In any case breaking the law for something so small is small minded.
