Rant!
I do not know where to start! I took my car to the post office today. Saw a very good parking space and just pulled right in! I came out and this guy in a Mustang was behind me. He got out of his car and started yelling at me! He said "They make parking space lines for a reason!" Being very rude! I yelled back at him, I know I shouldn't have. I guess this car gives me empowerment! 
I did not know what else to do! The guy was either jealous or he needed a life or both! He obviously was not very well dressed!
OK! I AM DONE! I hope this does not get locked!

If you parked in more than one spot, then you were asking for that!!!
Sounds (from your explanation) that you did indeed take more than one spot..

Maybe he was just having a bad day and took it out on you. Whatever. Bad moods can be transferred, so just shrug it off and don't let it bother you -- otherwise you're going to have to carry it around all evening.

I take 2 spaces every time I go out. Since they have door dinged all my other cars they deserve to lose a space. It's the same people losing the space that will be shoving their door into yours. Screw them.

When her said they make lines for a reason ...
You should've said, "They make driving schools for a reason too ... go attend one so you can learn how to park"...
or.... You're just mad because your wife made you buy that instead of this.
Of course, if I was you, I'd be saying this as I drove away at Mach 2.

Maybe he was transferring his anger from some other Corvette owner that misparked somewhere. Go figure, don't even give him the time of day. By the way, good for you for standing up for yourself. If you weren't in the wrong, you should have let him have it. Paul

Hey Daphne,
He was probably mad 'cause you beat him to that particular spot and he couldn't think of anything else to say. Good for you for standing up to him.
