"Reserved Parking" brought to you by an idiot.....
my favorite thing is to pull my piece of crap car in next to people who are over the line on their driver side. i pull into the spot as close as possible to their car and then i hop out the passenger side of my truck. its easy for me to slide out on my vinyl bench seat, and its worth it because seeing people in SUV's trying to climb across from their passenger side so they can get in and move their car out of my space.

I used to own an apartment building, and when people parked like that I'd park a dualie crew cab with a 44-foot gooseneck in front of them. They'd have to come see me to get out. Pretty much didn't happen a second time. If it did happen again, I'd have it towed (which was outlined in the lease).

My flatmate and I used to own an early eighties Escort Estate which didn't have a single undented panel. The front bumper was so battered it was actually behind the headlights. It was awesome. G reversed it backwards into a lamp post one morning and we couldn't find a new dent in it. People would move out of our way when we piling down the motorway and we had right of way at most junctions.scan wrote:At one time my dream car was a 70 Chevy Nova with pushbars, primer grey paint, and severe denting, just so I could see how many empty parking spaces I'd have around me when I got back to my car. Ah, the days of youth.

One morning there was a Saturn parked about 8" over the line in the garage at work. I parked next to them, perfectly centered. When I left that evening, the Saturn was gone and a note was under MY wiper: "Thanks for parking so close, jerk!"
The most extreme I've ever gotten was when I drove a crappy full-size Jeep Wagoneer. I parked on an inside-corner spot, and when I came out one evening some yahoo had parked their Yukon Denali XL in the spot 90-degrees to mine...and had their rear hanging about two feet over my spot:

So I backed my Jeep up to the wall, put it in drive, and rammed 'em.
No joke. I then managed to jockey out of my spot. Turned out I nailed the end of their bumper and didn't even dent their shiny Denali.

I had someone park in front of my old 88 lincoln town car like the guy in noodlenoggins picture, except he was not 8 inches over he had his frond door handle lined up with the center of my hood just like a "T". I was with some friends and waited areound for a bit as the parking lot was for a club and was very buisy, after about 20 mins I was sick and tired of waiting so I threw a sweatshirt between my bumper and his door and started pushing his compact 4 dr civic with my beast untill I had enough room to get out of the spot (about 15 ft) I didn't do any damage to his car but the guy was probably pissed when he came out lol.
My 3 dream machines when I was young and just started driving were my 88 towncar, my primer/ powder blue 87 chev 1500 with open ended headers ( ripped off exhaust jumping train tracks) and my Pos green/ red primer 85 S-10 with a piece of wood for a bed. There were some good times in those things as I did not care what happened to the things as long as they got me to work
