Considering the severity of the “offenses”, this may be one of the most ridiculous threads of all time imo. :D

Parking is at a premium, especially when the snow birds are here. Nothing against them whatsoever; I’m glad to have the crowds and revenue injections! However, I see way too many idiots that cannot parallel park to save their lives.
It's a chain reaction from the original badly parked car IMO.

The only problem I can see with a parking encirclement (whatever that is)is somebody would be told to park in the corner, and spend hours driving around confused.

Grumpy online personas

I always think of online forums like this as places where too many people feel free to act like they never would if they were sitting in front of you. I agree that the people I meet in person seem to try to live up to the ideal of America’s Friendliest Hometown, for the most part, while too many folks online seem to be determined to make it America’s Trolliest Hometown.

I think the white lines were painted after the car & motorcycle were parked.

Who cares how anybody parks. :1rotfl:

Pay attention to what's really important.

NOPE. Dog poop threads have this beat by a mile.

If that is something that REALLY bothers you, I think you have deeper seated issues to resolve. We don’t know what was there before, and maybe the car parked that way because what was there before was hanging over. Then the motorcycle saw a space and fit in. Just shake your head, call them silly and move on. You can’t let every little thing ruin your day, you will live a miserable life with the glass half empty. Kinda like road rage, someone cuts you off, does you wrong, if you get angry and push back, now YOU are stooping to their level. Again, shake your head for their ignorance and let them be on their way. You’re now free to go about your journey without aggravation and let the a’hole be on theirs. Life is too short to sweat the small stuff.
