I've always found that "F#%$ OFF" seems to work well.

I think I know how you feel. I would've been so flabbergasted at his tirade, I would've been taken aback as hell - and likely yelled back. But that kind of confrontation always upsets me afterwards.... so unexpected. I probably would've cried once I got in my car, hehehehehe. I dunno - people's overt, mean-spirited rants get to me... and bug me afterwards.

And peeps, you know how it is - you can pull into a spot and fit perfectly fine between 2 cars and they may not have been centered themselves, throwing the whole row off. I'm thinking she didn't take 2 spots.

Are you saying, NOT in a parking spot???

I think you are but just don't want to just come out and admit it...

If that's true, you got what you asked for.....

IF you were parked in a parking spot, normally as any one should, then forgive me, BUT I have a bad feeling you were in the wrong and KNOW it......

I am fine, just trying to get the girl to say what she did.

Sounds to me as though she's beatin around the bush and not wanting to admit she did wrong......

I don't care what you drive, if you're gonna park in a NO PARK zone, then cry when someone says something about it, then too bad.

I don't need to chill, I am having fun with this thread watch you girls get upset..

You GIRLS need to CHILL

Not getting upset, she SAID she parked next to the curb - why do you have to keep doubting her?? Now run along and go play with yourself.

Diva, honey, don't you worry. The guy must have had a bad day (the ole Vette vs. Stang complex, more than likely). Still, this guy had no right to be so freaking rude to you. Glad you stood up to him.

And, VG: I love your new WTF Kitty avatar.

Default Similar story...

Stayed at a hotel in Ft Lauderdale a few years ago. Right at the oceanfront and marina. Parking lot was all clearly marked with lines...the very end spot of this lot was about 1.5x the width of the normal parkig space widths. I got lucky to find that spot open and parked there (nice and centered between the line and the curb) for the night.

Next morning, there is a note tucked under the windshield wiper that stated "next time you take up 2 parking spots, your car will be towed".

Even if I had parked right next to the last marked line, you wouldn't have been able to fit a golf cart next to me and the curb, much less another car. I highly doubt it was the hotel that left the note, just some idiot who couldn't find a place to park.

Blo_ Me is one of my favorites too, especially to a stang owner.

Way to stick up for yourself Daphne! Any man who does that to a lady deserves a little attitude adjustment.

Where are you Diva, go ahead and tell your girlfriend and all of us just how you parked....

Obviously illegally.......

You got most of what you desrved, just not the ticket.

Funny that you actually post here that you are upset someone called you on your wrong doing.

And VG, you don't seem to have a clue, just sticking with the girls...

Why don't you PM your friend and ask her about her parking.
She'll tell you she was wrong. She can't do it here. This post has gotten too long now....

Good bye

PS I like Mustangs too......

OK! I AM DONE! I hope this does not get locked!
Um, this makes absolutely no sense at all. It has been asked previously but I don't think you have answered. Something about the way you parked obviously set this guy off and you must know what it is. The way it reads is that you parked in a "very good parking space" and this guy goes off on you when you come out to get in your car about parking space lines.
