Vic is a professional comedian, I’m guessing all his videos are staged. Situations many people can relate to in real life, at least I could relate to. I do a full risk analysis when i enter a car park and choose a parking spot. Drives my wife crazy. Yes generally it is a good distance from everyone else but not too far out of the way. Not unheard of me going back and moving it because I wasn’t happy with the spot I chose.

No one deserves to get keyed!
If you are that upset, then write a scathing note and leave it for the offender or have them towed.
Inconsiderate parking doesn't, ever, justify wanton destruction of property, and if you think out does, then you are no better than a crab in a bucket.

I like Vic, he pretty much describes most morons out there today. Check out the "airplane etiquette" video, pretty spot-on.

Yeah, waste of time watching that video. You have no control over who parks next to you in a parking lot - senseless to get so upset.

Most of his stuff is staged, nearly all in fact. He is a touring comedian that makes more from his YouTube channel.

Heck parked my 3 Vettes and my Pick-up when I was working at the far end of our 800 employee lot! Parked with others who valued their rides! My product manager with his Vette, one of our sharp engineers who restored a Karman Ghia, and a few others. That 100 yard walk IS GOOD exercise! I do the same at Malls BUT never take two spaces and usually next to a concrete island.
The only folks I have park next to me are other Vette's, Porsches etc! Taking up two spaces, even though there is no one around, evokes a "who the hell do you think you are" feeling. Not that a Vette doesn't do that to some degree. Where I live no issue with full lots as "in a big city."

I LMAO !!! But what's amazing is how many people don't see it's a joke! It's true and that's what make's it funny but there's no doubt that no matter where I park my Vette, someone always parks next to me.

Different tack here for me:
...been driving sports cars and high-end car since 1960....... doesn't make me special, nor entitled.
Someone parks next to me - free world......

Previously, I never had a back-up camera in my cars, much less a front camera, too. It has taken me some time to trust both cameras, but I am getting more comfortable with them. Do any of you routinely use the back-up camera to back into the garage? My comfort zone is not there yet for that, but I would like to hear about others' experiences.

Why the hell would that guy in the white Stingray park right next to the Z06? WTF
The guy with the Z06 was obviously parking out there by himself for a reason. 😂
