I crawled in and moved the Vette, my son backed his work truck in next to the guy's passenger side with about a 1/2 inch clearence. I parked my wife's car on his driver's side with enough room for him to just barely be able to get in his pickup. Then I rolled down both passenger side windows on my wife's car.
Oh, I forgot to mention that my wife doesn't go anywhere without her extremely possessive German Sheperd Dog.
We watched the fun from the restaurant. He was still out there when we came out. We didn't even give him a chance to say anything, just walked to our respective vehicles, got in and drove off.

If I park way in the back of the lot where there is lots of parking spaces, and someone tries to fu@k with me by parking to close.
Here is what I do. I always carry a valve stem remover. I will remove at least 2 of his valve stems. No damage done. Big inconvenience.
Then I get the hell out of there.
I did it once, but not when I was driving the Vette.

One time when someone parked too close to my car I left a note on his windshield as follows:
"Thank you for parking your car so close. Next time leave a can opener so I can pry my car out. A$%holes like you should take the bus!!"
