Inconsiderate Parker — Consider This Fair Warning

Posted on November 18th, 2008 by Amy Boshnack

How many times have you gone into a parking lot and been annoyed by a car taking up two spots? Seriously, it makes my blood boil… and I am a relatively calm person. But if I am in a hurry (which is basically all the time) or I have a car load of kids or I just don’t feel like walking an extra two rows, I do consider (but have never done it) running my key along the side of the precious vehicle in my potential spot. Is it really that difficult to get between two lines?

I know some people don’t park that way intentionally — but completely unforgivable are those obvious offenders who feel they deserve to take up two spots in order to safeguard their car from potential disaster.

I’ve found my solution to those inconsiderate when parking their cars. I Park Like An Idiot bumper stickers. Genius!

I have the guts to order them… just not sure I would have the guts to slap one on a car. Would you?

    Are you kidding? I’d order them in bulk.

    I’m down with your cause!I think the sticker should just read “I’m an idiot.” Chances are taking up two spots isn’t the only obnoxiously moronic thing they’ll do that day.

    Jenn B. – What a great idea… I see the makings of a new website. I’ve checked… no one has secured the url yet!

    I have to be honest here. I park like an idiot. I try not to, but sometimes I’ll get into my car to leave, and that’s when I realize I’ve embarrassed myself. Just put the sticker on the window so I can get it off without needing a new paint job.

    Here’s another option. I much prefer this one as there is room to comment!

    Fine, I also like it better because it uses “asshole” instead of idiot.

    If you’d like to add insult to injury, or, rather, insult to insult, I have an extra pack of mini “Hemorrhoid Sufferer” support ribbons stickers. Yours if you want ’em.
