Im Albanian, came to London for a week to visit my brother and other friends I know. I went to Currys in New Southgate, to check what they sell there, when all of a sudden I see this civillian parking like an idiot. I mean okay you coukd have taken 2 spots not a big deal, but 4???
We albanians are crazy drivers but not this crazy lol.
So my friend came over to visit yesterday and parked perfectly legally on the street. No driveways or garbage cans blocked, totally legit spot.
When we walked back out a few hours later this guy who lives in the house right there was red face screaming at us from his porch. He was literally shaking lol asking if my friend "actually lived on this block" and saying it’s a common courtesy to leave spots open for the people who actually live at the house.
Then he threatened to call code enforcement to get the car towed if we ever park there again.I thought street parking was a total free for all as long as you have a permit? Is this a real unwritten rule people expect you to follow here or did we just run into a crazy person who thinks they own public asphalt?
NoNot gonna name the exact block because I don't want to dox myself but let's just say it's within walking distance of a very popular grocery store that charges $9 for a single piece of cheese, and the houses here all have those giant Victorian porches. Anyone want to guess which part of midtown has neighbors this entitled?
At this point she was still in the car. But she did fully park and exit the vehicle
In addition to the bad parking the driver couldn't even be bothered to help load the groceries.
They must have pulled up right after I got into the store. There was a ton of free spots. I couldn't get into my car without the door tapping their car. I'm not climbing through the passenger because of Aholes like this.
Granted this definitely isnt the worst ive seen still pretty horrendous
Because what the actual fuck???
I've got a coworker that drives an F-150 and constantly parks over the line on the passenger side forcing nobody to be able to park next to him. It's a large truck, but not large enough that he can't fit in the lines, it's deliberate. Our parking lot has PLENTY of empty space for him to take up 2 spots further out, but he refuses to park there. We've tried leaving notes on the car, but not only did it not help, we were told by security that we aren't allowed to do that.
I'm looking for some clever ideas to call him out/piss him off/make him park normal (that don't involve putting anything on his car). There are cameras.
We've tried parking super close to him, thinking it'll work, but he tends to arrive before most people and stay later than most, so it ends up being pointless.. (Side note, he's also the type of dickbag that doesn't wash his hands after using the bathroom, so he's doubly hated by most)
Clearly, morally handicapped.
