Isn't it bad for suspension to park like this (for extended periods)?

Probably.
Again- IDGAF. It's a 12 year-old car that if it died, I would have no remorse

Nice! Jeep guys seem to do this quite a bit where I live

Shouldn't be, it's probably worse on the anti-roll bar bushings which will be under stress. The springs being springs will spring back into shape.

My first Volvo had a bent spring from the previous owner leaving it parked on an angle for too long >.>

It's certainly possible but it'd have to be a very long time. Like months or years unless the spring was already fatigued from being old.
I'm just talking about coil springs, I have no idea about the other types.

I've been barking up the "new car" tree for quite some time but my wife still won't let me until this thing dies

Headgaskets will make their departure soon enough.

When we were both poor a few years ago we decided to pay to get the head gaskets, timing belt, water pump, and thermostat fixed instead of buy a new car.
Since then we both have gotten better jobs and can now afford a better car. I redline this thing almost 20 times a day, hoping to break something but my latest UOA has Blackstone saying it'll last forever... shit.

That reminds me of the time I drove my Grand Cherokee into a big pile of snow, because it was there so might as well.

Kind of how I feel with this car. It's a tank and I've tried to kill it, but it won't die so... whatevs.
