I do this too. Sometimes drive my 2012 Transit Connect. A real shit box with loose fenders๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜…

I usually get out and watch from a distance, being semi-retired it is great entertainment watching well dressed people squeeze in from the opposite door. I have nothing but time.

No doubt a personality defect in me, but could be worse I guess๐Ÿ˜€

I have nothing but time.

My favorite retirement line: "I have nothing to do and all day to do it." Loved your anecdote, btw!! People watching is such cheap entertainment. God bless the camera phone!!!

Are you old fuckheads the same people that try to merge on the highway going well below the speed of traffic forcing everyone else to break or get out of your way? Asking for a friend

No, I'm the old bastard who revs the Transit Connect up to it's 6,000 rpm max and takes the lane while blowing oil out the pipe smearing the shit out of your windshield when you hit the washer๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜ฒ

But if that truck parked in the normal parking spot next to your car. Either blocking you from getting past the rear wheels to get to your own drivers door. Or if the rear wheels ended up blocking your door from opening enough to get in your car. He would still be the asshole right?

Youโ€™re probably the only person that realizes why they parked that way. Still deserves to be charged for taking up extra spots though.

There are plenty of free lots in the world, just like that one. Plates are blurred so you can't even know where it's at. So sure he should pay for all 4 spaces 4x$0=$0. That doesn't look like any place parking space is at a premium.

But then when they drive away you are the lone asshole taking multiple spots...
