With numerous empty spaces nearby, obviously the person driving one of the smallest cars in the lot* just had to park like this.

And that’s how my LandCruiser got footprints on the center console.

*: also, look at how bloated that Mini is!

It’s not like you’re less off-center than the not-terribly-Mini.

It’s a nearly empty lot, and I was there first. What’s your point?

I don’t give the tiniest shit if he parks slightly off-kilter, but why does it have to be 8 inches from my driver’s door with 35 empty spaces nearby? He could take up three spaces if he wants, without preventing one of the two cars already parked there from opening their door.

I fold people’s mirrors in when they pull this shit, I don’t understand people’s obsession with parking next to other cars when there’s no reason to. It’s like using the urinal right beside the only other guy in the bathroom with 400 urinals

The things I would do to that Mini...like how the hell did they even get out?

I was wondering that too. I’m sure they dinged my door but the paint on my FJ80 is not pristine, to say the least.

...by opening the door and getting out? It’s really enough space for everyone.

How the hell did they even get out? Mini doors are LONG.

Are you joking? Without hitting his door, I could only open my door enough to leave less than 6 inches between the inside handle and the pillar. I am more than 6 inches thick.

I think I probably would have tried to get into my car from the drivers side a few times first...throw that FJ80 door open and show that mini who’s boss.

Also, I’m super jealous of your grill. My ‘97 has the sombrero logo...and its gold, which makes it even worse.

Thanks. There are a lot of chips in that silver plastic, unfortunately, because TRUCK. But the gold ones are looking a little dated.

If I see another Juke parked in a corner from other cars I’ll park a space away from it. It might attract other Jukes.

That’s enough space for non-Americans to get out.

A fat joke. How clever.

roll down the window, and get in “Dukes style” might have to stand on the mini to pull it off though..........

Unless “non-Americans” are all as stretchy as Dr. Fantastic, I doubt it.

here was a classic one which was parked at work this summer:

Honestly, this is actually a scenario where the guy did this specifically to be a dick. And teach you for not being GREEEEEEEN!

Those are some skinny, skinny, skinny non-Americans

I’m sure this fucker posted on insta about how he blocked in the troglodyte driver of a gas guzzling SUV.

I swore I’d never own a beige Toyota with the gold package, but here I am.

I mean, he’d be at least half right.

Now I’m mad. But I’m glad I wasn’t driving the Audi because I doubt I’m flexible enough to climb over the shifter with a lower roofline.

That’s a good idea. Maybe next time.

But it’s not like he backed in either. He put his drivers door to yours, being it’s a longer doored 2 door it was just as hard or harder for him to get in/out I think he’s an idiot.

But the window is on the inside :(

12/15/2016 at 11:30

might......MIGHT JUST, be able to reach the keys into the ignition, and SHOULD be able to reach the window switch with the space thats available.

like i said, probably have to stand ON the mini to climb in though........

NOW if they had a floor jack, they could jack up the center of the back of the mini, and drag it over until they had enough room to climb in.....
