What a Jackwad!

Mr. PerfectMr. Perfect Member, Moderator Posts: 66,317 ******
in General Discussion
The parking lot at Home depot isn't known for having huge parking spaces, but it was mostly empty. So, when this jackwad from Idaho did this to me, I'm going to broadcast it as far and wide as my influence allows. I literally had to crawl in from the passenger side.  Anyone feel like doxxing?

And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche

    Since I am recovering from knee surgery, I wouldn't be able to crawl across my vehicle to drive it. I'm afraid that when the jackwad returned, he would find his wipers super glued to his windshield. Home Depot sells some industrial strength glue!  >:)

    You should have scrawled “jack wad” in the dirt on his/her tailgate.

    Sorry, Randy.


    There was plenty of room on my driver’s side. You could have just crawled through there.

    As close to the line both cars are, it is hard to say who did what to whom! Don

    I don't see it.  Both vehicles are within the pre marked area of white lines.  Your anger should be directed to the first sentence in your post.

    I always just use a key that doesn’t have a automatic door opener, fits better in my pocket, and the key only can be used on the drivers side door. So I quest I would have had to of waited until the person returned. This is the reason I always carry enough BOND money on me.

    The best revenge I ever heard of was from my ex-wifes sister.  She got blocked in by a brand new Mercedes, she took a loaded diaper and wiped the contents under the door handle.  Brilliant and no permanent harm done to the car !

    Well, I suppose you both missed the fact as a driver I'm not going to park so close to someone so that I have to crawl to the other side of the car to get out.  Maybe you two roll differently.

     Those parking "spots" are just that, small spots for an electric car. Looks like the guy on the left got him blocked in also.

    Strangely, this HD (and all the ones in this area, actually) don't have much for tradesmen hanging 'round.

    To be clear, the guy to the left of jackwad was there when I pulled in. Jackwad purposefully chose the tight spot between us when there were quite literally closer open parking spaces among about a dozen or so surrounding with no cars left or right of open spaces.

    I like the diaper idea. I'm going to start taking some soft dog litter in a zip lock bag for the Jackwads.
    I can park 200 feet away and no one around. when I come out of the store quite often their is a goat houer with goats on one side and a hog hauler on the other side. 
    I'll see if they even notice soft fresh wettable dog poop on their door handles.
    Might be doing them a favor, killing a covid virus. ;)

     Ok then, makes some sense, not by him though.

    One technique I have seen for such occasions is to keep some zip-ties in your car. As you leave, zip-tie a shopping cart to their door handle. It's especially effective for liberals and millennials, since they tend to not carry pocket knives.

    Now that I have armed you with a revenge technique, let me offer some better advice. Just move on. Circumstances may not always be what you think. Could be an old lady who had no ill intent, maybe a mom distracted by a crying baby, or someone whose mind was occupied with the thoughts of the Dad they just lost to COVID-19. In my experience, the path of vengefulness usually leads to ME being humbled and looking like a jack-tail.

    BUT, I'll bet that zip-tie thing works pretty good. Hahaha!!

    I would have just left a note and tucked it under his wiper blade.

    Just the note!  No sugar actually needed!  :D

    It'd need to be a mighty small shopping cart!  Did you see how close together those cars were?   :D;)

    I never park that close to the white line to begin with. I would have found a different space where I could park equal-distantly between the two lines. This is a common problem at the hotel I work at along with the trailer tower or truck or bus drivers that park across 8 spaces. Yes that valve stem tool is very handy to have.

    I normally do too, but I didn't worry much about it SINCE THERE WERE SO MANY OPEN SPACES!!!

    Maybe 35  or so years ago the standard parking space was 10'X20'.  With so many smaller cars being sold back then the "powers to be" decided to cut that back to 8'X18'. With the current interest in SUV's and trucks this should be revisited ;)
