Ticked Off Vic is pretty funny. This is all staged for his You Tube Channel but it's dead on. Check out his other videos. The one about toilet paper is pretty good too!

Vic is pretty funny. I usually park my old station car next to a Vette as a courtesy - my old car will protect one side at least. I was confronted once by a guy who was visibly annoyed that my 25 year old car was next to his Vette in the "back nine"...I pointed to the "My other car is LT1 powered" stickers on the side windows - usually the Vette guy will see that and understand immediately. This dude asks "what the hell does that mean"? I got in my car and left him standing there....

Someday, soon, Vic is going to stroke out.

Right on camera. That one may go viral.

Until then, the rest of us will continue to park out in the north 40 and come back to someone parking right next to us.

We struggle on!

He is absolutely right. The F-Head who parked next to him is a complete ******* and he did it on purpose.

Why? Because...people. That's why. You have to assume at least one jokester is going to tweak you nose if you park way out like a sore thumb. So don't do it, paak ya caa next to the others as if it were an ordinary car, it's ok, and you won't stroke out like Vic.

I think the Vic just saw a car all by itself in the back 40, parked right next to it, and made the video as if someone had parked next to him while he was in the store.

Staged.

I'm sure I'm the only one who thinks this.

It bothers me too as I try to park away, however thankfully not as much as it bothers Vic.

If there are a ton of empty spots all around yet parks next to the only other car...Yes, an *******.
