Post your angry parking pics!
on another note a real parking thing that makes me angry is people that leave their dogs in the car for more than an hour on extremely hot sunny days for more than 20 minutes
i went for dinner once and parked next to a poor dog with one window down less than a centimeter on a hot day... when i left a which was few hours later car was still there... the dog owner came back with his windshield wipers ripped off with a lovely note left on his windshield

Another one....
So I walk out to my car, and turn the corner from around another car and see this:
Yeah, it's basically blocking me in. In pure truth it isn't, because I could, being careful, squeeze my 8 between the bumper of the ******* in front of me and the van to my left. The top picture is a bit deceptive in the available distance. The van next to me is too close for me to be able to rotate the car much until I am almost at the bumper of the Nissan.
I get out though. Carefully, and with my skin hanging from both cars.
And yes, all the cars directly ahead aren't supposed to be there either, clogs the lanes, causes visibility problems, accidents in the parking lot are climbing because of this, but nothing the company is doing is getting people to stop.

I don't know that people would see them.

Yes it is. I actually hate to park in populated parking lots, because, people don't care about their cars, and how would they care about some others ? I am angry now, when I remember how was I sitting in the car, grandpa parked, opened the door, hit my mirror, and just continued to walk. Other time my mirror was popped out of the place, and the guy next to me was with BMW X5, I don't know how does he not take care of his own car by don't watching and hitting me. Also there are various scratches on the doors from other people opening their doors. I am so angry now about mentioning this, that I can't write more.
Ordinary people look at cars like a way to transport, and that's it. When I buy an 8, I will buy another cheap car only not to worry when I go to shopping or something else.

If everyone cared for the value and appearance of their property the way we do, then we wouldn't feel a need to try to protect it from the ignorant, jealous, or jackass people parking in the same lot. We aren't going to 'worry' about our cars just because you parked next to us. We are simply trying to protect something we care about, that even on a simple base level is a large financial investment.
WHY wouldn't you do the same?
I like it when people with expensive cars park next to me, because I know they will be careful around my car. That is all I ask. If you want to beat up some door panels, do it to your own car.
I can't fathom a mindset which would encourage me to take actions specifically to cause pain, discomfort, or loss to anyone without any other purpose other than their own personal humor... and am saddened that someone who is willing to do so is on the boards with us.

oh lord this thread reminds me of my First night in maryland when we moved here...
We went to Walmart and got some stuff, we're loading stuff in the Trunk when this car pulls up beside us, and 2 women on Passenger side open their doors and slam them into our new SUV There was plenty of ******* room for them to get out, but they just had to Extend their doors ALLL the way open, ****** ********... and walked away without saying **** with us standing right there.
I was in shock. Took a picture of the license plate because it was to dark to see ****. thankfully no marks.
I would have said something, but Im this tiny lil buck 120 girl, and those 200+ pound black girls are scary =P

haha This is not the first time I've heard a white girl say black girls are scary.
I take up 2 spots at work in the back of the parking lot. One day it was so busy the entire lot was full when I got off. I found a note saying, "Why u park like this. u an *******". I laughed

Typical. Notice how the side of the truck is all banged up. I had just looked through this thread yesterday, so I was extra pissed and had to take a few pics. The parking lot was mostly empty too as most of the businesses were closed.

Aipex-
In your second pic I think that the driver of the Tundra and the blue car in the background have the same blood line because they both parked like ********....
hopefully there weren't any dings

what half assed insurance is she using? Every auto insurance i've ever owned had a 30 day clause for new car purchases. Call them within 30 days, car is covered as soon as you sign the contract for the car.

I have a **** load of angry parking pics.. mostly involving corollas (my most hated car)... I'm sure people will find it amusing. I'll put them all together and post it here ahahaha 
They just love to find me and park REAL CLOSE beside me... even when I am the furthest spot away (I have a proof of this one)

Luckily I don't have any worthy pics yet *knocks on wood* but there are risks with this car I will say.....Out of the local grocery store the other night, I parked 3 spaces away from other cars and there are plenty open spots all over. I walk out to find a lady parked right up next to the passenger side, making it difficult for herself to get out. No dings or hits after checking but still, begs the question why?
