If you actually get upset enough to confront someone about their parking, I think you need to re-evaluate yourself.

I you're upset enough to confront someone about confronting someone about confronting someone, please enjoy your stay on the internet. You fit right in.

It's not a good crap on thread until someone is called a Nazi.

My 4 cents,
1. When I see a cool looking ride of any type parked out in the boonies I will often park nearby, not right next to it. Just so I can get out and walk around it.

2. No one can fix a problem they don't know about. The way the OP presented his issue to the one who parked next to him is absolutely OK with me. Regardless of the bitchy way the woman responded I can only hope the next time she parks that huge van she thinks twice about how she does it.

3. That sticker is horrible and way overboard IMO. If it's an actual sticker and not a card I call the police even though the easy way to handle it would be to just put your ass on the ground. My driving camera records front and rear and saves the five minutes prior to and ten minutes after someone touches the vehicle.

I have zero issues with a prewritten card or note or one written on the spot and put under the windshield wiper. People make a living out of designing and selling these cards. The polite one I like is on Etsy:

Parking Card

4. I try extremely hard to not let my thoughts about assholes and inconsiderate pricks reach my lips but have done [and will no doubt do again] the same thing as the OP when responding to a comment like he got.

So now we have people threatening to call the cops, hit or key other people's vehicles, or pull a gun on them. All over a parking spot. This thread really has devolved.

Nothing like taking your internal rage out on others in legally questionable ways.
sadly people will shoot others for less than a parking space...

Let's talk about fishing.
Did I ever tell y'all about the shark that parked too close to my Gladiator? He was really big and mean. When I asked him why, he bit my arm off.....LOL!!!
Just another internet fish story :LOL:

Very amusing thread. I've learned some things from the concept of passive-aggressiveness. Like the OP ... I also would have been annoyed. But from experience (I'm 59) I realize that these situations are just not worth the aggravation. There is no "teaching" a lesson to other people. The sum total "responsible driving IQ/proper parking etiquette" of most people we spend time with on the freeways, in the parking lots is pretty LOW.

Just let it go and keep your blood pressure down.

But fun thread to hear all the responses was entertaining.
