Asshole at the Y a couple of days ago.
Edited on Tue Apr-13-04 08:05 AM by TXlib
I went to go work out at 5:30 pm. Parking lot was PACKED FULL -- unusual for this time of year. There were almost no spaces; people were parking illegally in the aisles.

I saw, amidst the crowding, a Ford F-150 parked in two spaces. The driver deliberately straddled the line and took up two spaces. Not surprisingly, the bumper was decked out in conservative republican stickers.

I was SOOOOOO tempted to key the paint of the truck, which appeared to be brand new.

Instead, I noted the location and tag of the vehicle, and complained at the front desk. I offered to take the manager to the location of the truck to see why I was so upset. He came with me, and agreed that parking that way when the lot was so crowded was utterly inappropriate. Unfortunately, they don't have a towing policy, nor do they record in their member profiles info about the cars members will park in the lot, so they had no way of connecting the truck with its owner.

So, next time I see that shit, I will key the asshole's paintjob! :grr: :mad:

On Edit:
Y'all should know me well enough by now to know I am (mostly) all talk! What'll happen is I'll imagine keying the paint, and then I'll piss and moan about it afterwards.

1. Vandalism is not the answer.
You catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.

</advice from dear ol' mom>

19. You can make good use of all those DU stickers you get
during donation time.

But then again, they could trace that back to our website and poor Skinner will get a lawsuit.

No, find some anon. liberal bumperstick that is not associated with our website. That'll do the trick!

20. Thanks
I've never had the guts to do it, but I think it would be a lovely parting gift for some jerk in the handicapped lane, too.

May be time to get the printer fired up after all. :D

9. Merely loosen the valve stems on two or more tires.
Edited on Tue Apr-13-04 08:00 AM by TahitiNut
No permanent damage ... just two flat tires.

13. Vandalism would make you feel better...but how about
parking behind his truck in such a way that he can not pull out of the space. That way he will need to find you to leave, and you can discuss it with him.

14. Nah, just stick a MAXI-PAD on both bumpers....
that'll turn him green for months.

Get the HUGE old fashioned ones, keep em in the car, for just such occasions.

18. That's sort of the idea behind keying.
Except without damage to your own car.

If I had a piece-of-shit-mobile, I might do that.

21. Have a few bumper stickers made up that say...
"I drive a big truck because I have a small penis."

Stash them in the glove box for occasions such as this,

See how long it takes him to figure out why people laugh at him when they drive by.
