Hood, agree 100%.

The best thing is to park beside them at the same angle anyway, to completely defeat their parking like that anyway.

I've got 3" steel bumpers along my sides. Add to that fact that the natural height of my Jeep means that any pissed off person who wants to 'ding' me with their door is simply going to hit a $50 rail and damage their door.

But alas, I do none of that. While I think those people are idiots, I respect their property and understand that they actually do no harm to me (we have way more parking than employees). Now, shopping malls where parking is a premium, that's a different story.

What really torques me up is when someone pulls ahead to the next space in a one-way angled-parking lot. When they leave, they simply pull out and proceed straight, driving the wrong way down the aisle. If you happen to meet them head to head, they always seem to think it's your obligation to back up and let them through.

Worse yet is when some yahoo pulls so close to your vehicle that you have to crawl through the passenger side to get into the driver's seat. How I have restrained myself from defacing those cars! It would literally take them less than 2 minutes to straighten up so that others aren't horribly inconvenienced.

I would rather the idiot know they can't park worth shit, and go to the boonies than attempt to park in the primo spots or next to me.

I called security once on a person that parked taking up two spaces with a SUV in primo spots, and they told me it was one of the deans. They couldn't do anything about it. This just strengthened my belief in the Dilbert theory.

When I worked for Wal-Mart corporate, we called it the double-loser lot. Come to work late, walk half a mile to the building.

People who park like that make me want to hit them. I can't imagine that I'm the only one, but I also can't imagine that all of the others who feel this way have as much will power as I do.

You should see how effective a key on the paint job can be against idiots like that.

As assholeish as double parking is, keying cars is several orders of magnitude higher.

Taking up two spaces does not justify getting a car keyed. Ever.
