Snowflake vibe. Toughen up buttercup. Would you have taken the same stance if the driver was a 6'2" 250 pound dude that looked like he could wreck you?

Probably not. You saw a weak old woman and decided to plant your flag on your freaking parking lot slot.

When someone does this to me, I fold in their mirror. I really enjoy it when it's their pax side as they usually don't notice it until they start to back out. There is really no reason someone shouldn't be able to park between the lines. On the flip side, when I see the A-hole with the Beemer take up 2 spots in a busy parking lot, and I'm in my 2000 Nissan Frontier hooptie, I'll squeeze in to the spot next to them.

Have had my fair share of parking etiquette failure incidents, never thought the need to post about it on the internet.

....that's not remotely what happened.
My opinion to that statement is that you're nuts.
You were not there and you are not correct. I could give a ____ about your opinion!

She actually came out of the medical clinic and I saw her walking towards the van as I was getting into my Jeep. I asked her politely why she would park so close to my Jeep when there were so many other empty spaces to the left of her van. She bluntly told me that she was a caner survivor and that she didn't hit my Jeep. I told her I was sorry that she had been ill and to please leave a bit more room between vehicles next time. She actually got nasty with me about telling her how to park so I told her to go to hell and left. (I know I should of not said that but up till then I was more than nice to her!)
Almost dying of cancer doesn’t give someone a license to be a complete deuche! IMHO

Again, I was very respectful and would of asked anyone why they parked so close. I really could care less who or what size the person is.

Or do I need to get your permission before I post about something to be sure it meets with your approval on what is read here?

She said she was a cancer survivor and really seemed fine. She was actually younger than I am, probably in her 50's. Nice shot with insults.

@Phil_R I personally like to leave little messages on windshields, usually very respectful things such as:
“You park like an a$$hole” or “fabulous parking job, retard” sometimes I get a little creative and end up with a “f*** you and the car that brought you here” or “you park like your fathers pull out game... g** awful”

That being said sometimes I can be petty and I enjoy every minute of it. What’s life without a little confrontation?
should print some of these and carry them with you.

I was referring to her being the deuche.
If your account is accurate than she was definitely the one out of line. Asking someone not to park so close shouldn’t trigger such an over reaction on her part. What the hell does her surviving cancer have to do with how she parked the van? Rude lady.

@No Quarter I'm with you on this one...

Maybe go out and use that rig for what it's built for... you'll be better off.

I'm out here bashing my shit off of rocks, both bumpers, both sliders, all 5 wheels and one fender have had direct contact with some gnarly ass granite and others are so concerned about door dings that they need to confront a female about where she parks.

Sometimes you have to laugh. I park in the spot the farthest away with no one around and come out to find someone in the space next to me. Don't really understand, maybe they think their car gets lonely.
Depending on the vehicle I don't mind them parking next to me or me parking next to them when I'm in the last spot with a sea of open parking closer. Leave a decent amount of space and a spot between if possible. We're both out there to not get our vehicle F'd by the average person so it's safe to assume both of us care enough not to do it to each other.

Yeah, I get it. Doesn’t really matter where you park, they’ll find you.
You're parked next to the cart corral at walmart... I'll park in the grass before parking there. The automotive area/gardening is usually relativley close to the entrance but nobody ever parks there because they don't realize it's the same distance.

Thanks Chris. Sorry for the misunderstanding. I seem to be taking a lot of arrows here because of my post, so I thought that you were joining those unhappy forces! Appreciate your clarification!
