    Well, that guy is clearly a massive prick, but let’s also talk about how fucking ugly that truck is. I don’t know when everyone decided that land yacht pickup trucks were the bees knees, but they’re not. They’re just dumb and so. goddamn. ugly.

    I don’t actually mind this IF the person parks in the back of the lot. I get that they don’t want their precious hot wheels monster truck to get dinged, but as long as they park in the back of the lot where there’s no other cars, it’s fine. However, this person is clearly an asshole as there’s handicapped spots next to them, so they’re right up front taking spaces. It should be legal to vandalize their vehicle if a person does this.

    My favorite thing is to just leave a note that says, “I’m sorry about the scratch.”

    My move lately has been to stand their windshield wipers up. You’re not doing anything criminally damaging to their vehicle, but in my experience, anyone this self-important will be really bothered by the thought of some random person putting their dirty hands on their precious baby.

      Ah yes, the Categorical Imperative!

        it’s universalizable. I’d be okay with someone keying my car if I purposely parked like an asshole, so it survives the ax murderer paradox

    In the old days, a friend of mine would carry some paper(?) stickers(?) (labels?) that said something like “I park like an asshole” and superglue it to one of the windows of someone parked like this.

    If you wanted to be nicer, you could get some proper pre-printed stickers (most online print/sticker shops should have them) and place them. Wouldn’t cause any damage but would maybe make them think about it a little bit.

    I also saw a post recently where someone replaced all the tire valve caps with bright orange or pink little dick shaped caps. This would cause more inconvenience and embarrassment, but not be damaging or dangerous.

      I knew a guy that had a roll of custom-printed “I park like a jackass” stickers. They weren’t very large – I think they were originaly labels for folders or something.

      But they were on tamper-proof stickers, the kind that were metalic and broke into a bunch of tiny pieces when you tried to peel them off.

      He’d slap two or three of them on the driver’s side windshield and window out of the main line of sight, but you couldn’t miss them when driving.

      They’re a pain in the ass to get off. I know, because he put one on my car that said, “I lick sweaty ballsacks”.
