When I was checking out in the check out line, I could see my bike thru the front window, and what did I see ? A guy in a black BMW pulled in behind my bike, got out and pushed my bike up on the sidewalk, and parked his Beemer in my space. Before I could get my change and get out the door, he had walked away and vanished inside the mall. So I put my package in my saddlebags, put my helmet on and planted my size 10D boot right in the middle of his driver side door. I got on my bike and slowly rode away. Justice is sweet however fleeting. XS
Some people hope that eventually, people get what they deserve- I tend to take things in my own hands and ensure that it gets taken care of that moment! Wish i were there to lend you my size 10.5's!

On a nicer note- if i were in a better mood- i would have left a note on his windhsield nicely explaining how it isnt correct to touch someone's elses stuff and that you hope he doesnt do it again ( and i'd take the air out of only 1 of his tires).

*chuckles* well, I wont advocate it, but its still funny...... Yuppy in a beemer....

if it had been a smaller car and you have access to friends..just pick his car up and put it between a couple light poles..... A beemer might be a tad difficult, but if it had been a VW rabbit or soemthing.....

I woulda waited myself....

I can chime in on a couple of points...

1. Parking close: At my job there's a "cool" parking garage and an "uncool" parking lot that's farther out. 90% of everyone will take 15minutes motoring around the garage for a parking spot on the 5th floor roof, out in the weather anyway. I park out in the "uncool" lot in about 2 minutes, and take the same amount of time to walk in as it does from the garage roof.

2. Parking Lot Justice. Shame on you, man. Shame on you.

That said, when I drove a crappy Jeep Grand Wagoneer (1/2 ton w/woodgrain) I was parked in the "cool" parking garage, and some nozzle parked their Yukon Denali XL so that about 2-feet of their rear was blocking my parking spot. ( Picture it as an "L" where I'm parked at the base of the L and they're on the upright of it) I backed up to the wall, put it in "D" and gunned it. *WHAM* (I then jockeyed back and forth and managed to squeeze out of my spot.)

This reminds me of a good joke.

What's the difference between a porcupine and a BMW ?




With a porcupine the no funs are on the outside. :laughing:
