altercation with 4wd owner in carpark

[danny_galaga]

grrr. just got home. i went to a shopping centre (mall in the US i guess). from the road i could see 3 spots next to each other in the carpark. this is the point where if i dont see those (which is where i normally park) i'll park in the carpark of a smaller shopping centre across the road. when i get there though i see a big 4wd has just parked ACROSS those 3 spots. there is in fact room for about 3 and a half normal cars so i decide 'stuff him, i'm going to park in front of him. this is how those spots normally are:

                                          l l l

this is the richard cranium:

                                           __

after i parked:

                                          --- l

now, in his defence there are no markings to say which way you are supposed to park, but EVERY other spot is parallel. he was just getting out when i parked and he said 'hey, i hope you're not going to leave that there' to which i replied 'yes' and he asked how he was supposed to get out. i told him it looked easy to get out (it wasn't but it could be done) he said what am i supposed to do? drive up the gutter?
'yep', i answered. 'it's a 4wd drive isn't it?' he threatened that he would hit my car to get out. at that point i should have written down his rego of course but i just walked off and muttered 'half wit' hoping his wife would hear. that ruined my time there of course. i had a quick lunch and got what i had to get. i also got a cheap note pad and a pen and wrote him a letter to stick on his windscreen:

"there, you see!not so bad after all!! and now you've gone and embarrassed your daughter for nothing (he looked about 45, wife maybe late 30s. hehe).
 seriously, if you're not crash-hot at parking,etc you should consider getting a smaller vehicle. It's not like THIS one has ever been off-road, has it? It alarms me how many senior citizens drive such large vehicles nowadays.

have a nice day    "

when it came time to leave i was feeling a little nervous. im not very confrontational (except on BYOAC in the safety of my own home  ). would his 4wd still be there? would he be a psycho and actually be waiting for me to return? did he make good his promise? well, got to the spot and he was gone. damn! wasted $1.20 on pen and paper for nothing (i'll leave it in the car for next time). i had a quick look over my car. no obvious damage. i felt vindicated though because in his place there were two normal cars parked the way i reckon its supposed to be.

now i know quite a few of you guys drive big vehicles. surely you take it on board that its going to be harder to park? and you wouldnt deliberately take up the room of 3 cars to park it? if it was me i would park my 4wd in that empty park across the road i mentioned. if i had a 4wd, i would use it for 4wding ( ) and have a normal car for shopping. that sort of arrogance is like harley owners parking their bikes on the footpath...

I park how i want and where i want..

Normally, in a single parking spot like everybody else..

Well, when i was in college and high school i used to take up 4 spots in my 78 chevy shortbed truck

So YOU were the guy I often purposefully parked next to with my '78 Impala piece of crap and purposefully opened my door as hard as I could into your nice paint job!  Nice to see idiotic youthful things weren't just confined to me!

Now I'd just use my snowplow to move your piece of crap.  People tend not to see anything going on when they see Robin Hood riding around in a plow truck.

Danny, I've got something you can print a few of and stick 'eim in the glove box.  I'll post it in the fort for you.  It's much nicer and somewhat kid-friendly, or at least will make the kids of idiots like that guy ask to see the picture of Mickey so he's got to explain why he can't show 'em

Your plow, wouldnt of hit my truck, nor would your doors ding mine.. Lift was high enough you couldnt touch it..

And FYI, i parked like that because i could, and knew nobody would NEED those spaces while i was there..

lol, ding my car doors.. id of ran your shitbox over..

I park how i want and where i want..

Couldnt have.. i parked on end caps, thus id of backed out or pulled out forward..

well gee aren't you just the smart one...

[SOAPboy]

No, i lived in a redneck town with extreme low maintanance roads.. and a damn good chunk were clay roads..

But, hey go for the cheapshot dick joke, you only make fun of what you envy..

Nice story danny

Altho im liking this soapboy drama better hehe

U know your story sounds so american u been hanging out on this forum to much 

Come back to the dark side...... to the aussie side   

[Bones]

A real man would have unzipped and pissed on his front wheel then and there.

[markrvp]

Careful Danny, Soapboy thinks you have a "purty mouth."  He may want you to squeal like a pig. 

[Crazy Cooter]

I would have blocked him in completely.  Of course I am confrontational .

When he talked about hitting my car I would have told him: "Not if I hit you first.  Besides, I have your plate number and could use the money and a good laugh when I stop by your house tomorrow and arrest your stupid ass in front of your ugly ---smurfette---."

Heheh.  Of course my language wouldn't be quite as toned down, but you get the point.

[Santoro]

Spitting on the windshield is my revenge of choice, especially when I have a cold.

[ChadTower]

Wusses.  You block him in and then spit on his wife.

[Zakk]

Yeah, I'd have no problem doing something to a car parked like a jackwad.  In fact, I have the perfect anti-soapboy device.  

I used to keep them in the glove compartment.  You take normal everyday kid's jacks (the metal ones) and cut the 'balls' off of them.  Now the good ones are made out of a tough steel, and are hollow inside.  If you grind the tips down on an angle, you have very efficient tire-puncture devices.  The poke into the tire and let the air out through the hollow part of the jack.  The best part, is if you paint them dark brown or black, and poke them right under the nook of the tire, the driver will never see them.  Oh they might not puncture all the tires, but put 3 or 4 under each tire, and you're sure to wreck something.  

Of course, these probably wouldn't work on the "I've got 14" treads on these tires that have never been offroad" variety of vehicle, but for the majority they are perfect.

You sound like a 12 year old..

As much as i hate when people do dumb ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- in public parking, ---smurfing--- with someones car is going to far.. If you were local, id honestly knock your ass out if i saw you, damaging someones 10,000$+ car because you couldnt get a parking spot is retarded..

Pathetic little punk..

Last time I had heard Soapboy was a punk who worked at a game store.

If I heard incorrectly I would be willing to retract my gamestore punk comment. But it sure sounds about accurate


This post is so going to hell anyways. Why not just put it out there.

Wait a sec, so the post gets left where he threatens to kick ---my bottom---, but the posts where he gets royally owned get removed??

you're my kinda man! years ago, a guy i used to work with employed me in his new business- property maintenance. he was a good man, but somehow ended up employing a few dead-beats (besides me). . one dude was such an asshat that one day me and a few of the guys decided to teach him a lesson.the guy was supposed to be doing quotes and stuff and earning his salary. all he ended up doing was sitting in the office watching the clock and taking home material for his house. so just before knock-off time i went out to his van while the secretary distracted him. i then drilled a total of about 30 screws into his tyres...

he found them when someone pointed out he had something in one of his tyres. he was livid! too bad. he complained to the boss who listened patiently. later the boss came to me and said with a grin that i shouldn;t do things like that. hehe...

Just at the right place at the right time.....

Oh boy Danny.

You wrote him a scathing note. OMG. I hope that ruined his time there too.

OH my. I hope you felt better. Big old Senior citizen told you bad things and you put a sticky note on his truck when he wasn't there. 

Big mean guys with thier big ole mean ole 4 wheel drives.

what'choo talkin' bout Stingray.

[shmokes]

Fredster, he didn't leave him a note; the guy was gone when he came back.  Do you ever actually read entire posts or are you too busy coming up with responses?

Frankly, on when it comes to mindless vandalism I'm with Soapboy.  ---smurfing--- with someone's car goes WAY too far.  But people who take their cars out into society but have no consideration of other people in that society deserve reprisal from those people.  If you deliberately take up three spots in a packed parking lot you're asking for your vehicle to be keyed.  There's no reason other people should have any consideration or respect for your vehicle when you use it in a way that shows utter disrespect and absence of consideration for them. 

Anybody with half a brain knows that they are far more likely to get keyed or get their tires slashed or something to that effect if they do stupid ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- with their vehicle such as parking it across multiple spaces.  Don't cry about the consequences of being an ---uvula--- after acting like an ---uvula---.

[fredster]

Shmokes,

Are you ever not a twerp? I guess not. (I hope the work outs have been good for you. )

Danny wrote him a note to insult him.  Whether or not he delivered it, he just wrote a note to him and it upset his delicate system so much it ruined his outing.  I thought it was funny.

Mean old men and their big cars.  Gotta write a blog post about how bad they are. 

[DrewKaree]

Other than the Fredster part, I think this is a record for the most points made by Shmokes that he and I completely agree upon.  One point was differing on levels of that point, but I'm gonna claim it, darnitall.

I've got a 4wd, and a plow.  I'm purposeful in where I park precisely because I know what an inconvenience my vehicle presents to others.  While driving, people freak out because evidently someone has given them the impression that owners of trucks have no consideration for others and are likely to run into them due to their asinine behavior.

[Zakk]

Frankly, on when it comes to mindless vandalism I'm with Soapboy. 

Look, you and soapboy have to stop going out vanalizing together.  It's just not right and his mom keeps calling me asking where you two have got to.

(I tell her you're up to no good, and it just tears her up inside!).

_{BTW careful, soapy likes to ambush.}

fredsters just upset that i called someone HIS age a senior citizen  . thats really pissed me off. i think im gonna stick a note to fredsters truck...

[farmecologist]

Ha! Thanks guys..this was a very entertaining read!   

[ChadTower]

Bah.  Do that to me and I'll drink some really sweet Koolaid and then piss in your tank.  Is it enough?  Don't know, do you?  Feeling lucky, punk?

[fredster]

I'm really glad that you feel better about the whole thing and got it of your system Danny.
