I just had to run to the bank real quick on my motorcycle, and I noticed that a prime parking space was sort of available as an @$$hat's G35 Coupe was sitting across two parking spaces. Not perfectly across them but at least the full tire width over the line. I pulled my bike in on the passenger side and set it on the kickstand. Perfectly in the center of the space.

I just walked away from the bike when @$$hat and his girlfriend walked out of the bank; so, no photo of the hilarity, but the girlfriend had to ask him to pull the car forward into the space more in order for her to get into the passenger door.

He left in a bit of an irritated sounding manner. The poor guy's plan to keep his car totally safe was ruined. I would bet that he was really pissed at the girlfriend as she slammed her door shut.

Throughout the whole thing I just stood with my back to them at the ATM 10 feet away. Priceless.

The car looked about like this, but it had the badges removed.

I understand your reasoning behind what you did, but why not just let the guy be. Clearly if he did what he did, he's not so different from us jalops. He just changed to protect his car from the mindless soccer moms determined to ding everyone's doors.

Because the reality is that it was right next to the ATM, and I did leave plenty of room between my bike and the car. I didn't do anything to impede their access. I could get off on the side of the bike near the car, and there was no issue at all. The girlfriend just didn't think she could open the door wide enough.

Also, there are only three ATM parking spaces, one of which is handicapped. So, I didn't have many options.

Also to your point, which I understand, we as enthusiasts should know better than to take up multiple spaces regardless of the love we have for our machines. We are a civilized group and we should all abide by modern societal conventions when possible.
