the thread with the F250 trapping the MR2 in prompted me to do this. I know you all have pictures of some of the worst parking around. Let's see and shame these mouthbreathers who should be on the bus and not behind the wheel of a car.

This was like this when I went into Traget and still there when I came out. it is a tight parking lot, so I do not know how it managed not to get hit in the meantime.

Local guy. Saw him someplace else, and a chatty friend commented on his truck. His reply solidified the fact that he's a complete douche-nozzle.

For some reason this style of parking was very common when I was going to community college.

I took this picture a couple of months ago. There were 6 handicapped spaces at the front with lots of room. This bozo takes two close spots. E36 M3 head!

A possible defense of the original post could be that there was a full size pickup parked in back of him, scratch that, her when she went to park. My F350 extended cab 8 foot bed takes up way more than the length of a spot. I always try to park by backing in and have the rear of the truck hang over one of those grassy areas, but its not always possible. Sometimes I have to park in a regular spot. I'm not going to leave the back end of my truck hanging out into the lane, so the front inevitably hangs 2 to 3 feet into the spot in front of me.

Its become popular for shiny happy person teens to drive grandpa's car for the parking. Typically its the pants falling down crowd, if you can confirm it in a case like this, let the air out of all 4 tires and hope grandpa is still alive and well to tear him a new one.

Speaking of parking lots and grocery stores, can some of you lazy berkeleys actually put the carts back in the corrals properly? Not just sort of aim them in the general direction?

Honestly, every time we go grocery shopping I end up pushing all of the carts together into the corral because they are all piled up into the parking lot and it bugs the crap out of me (I don't have OCD! But that paint over there is peeking a bit....) Takes a few seconds to do, but why do I feel like I'm the only one that does this?

Costco is horrible about this. Look you pushed the berkeleying thing all over the store, with ten tons of E36 M3 in it, is it really that hard to push it into another one when it is empty?

Oh and don't get me started on the berkeleyers clogging the aisle to get their samples. Are you hand-cuffed to the berkeleying cart? Leave it over there and walk over to get your sample.

Lazy berkeleys the lot of em!

I try to always do this, too. You're in my part of the world; I dunno if you shop at Fred Meyer, but they've ruined me by having two sizes of cart and only one corral... I don't want to stick my small cart in after a big cart... Leaving the best option to not hose the cart jockeys to set it alongside the corral?

What were you saying about OCD?

Sorry, this quote is KILLING me.

I hear ya though about the carts. When I was younger my parents would push their carts all the way back into the store. Their opinion on the corrals: "You're just creating more work for someone else".

I use corrals. I figure that's why they're there, but I wont push my cart into a mismatched cart... that would be (wait for it.....) "Just creating more work for someone else"!

Sorry for the O.T., back to parking
