Default i hate people

Went out to my car this morning, and noticed that on the driver's side of the rear bumper, there is a big 3"x6" black mark where some dumbass hit my car while parking, repeatedly. I just had that repainted like 3 months ago, what the ****. I'm so pissed off right now, I really hope it will buff out.

Man, that really blows. I often park way out in the parking lot to avoid crap like that, especially being that all my vehicles are black and show every nick. But, inevitably, some ***-clown will park three inches off my fender. What is wrong with people these days?

thats my montra. friends think its wierd, but i won't park my car unless theres an open handicapped spot just for that reason (and yes, i have a hanger, and its legal). i can put my tire right on the line for the unloading area. so i don't have to worry about door dings. but if had to choose between bad knees and door dings, i say screw my doors.

The average person is an undisciplined and disrespectful SOB - that's for sure. I've seen the hit-and-run thing happen WAY too many times to trust anyone, anywhere. Unfortunately it seems that no matter how much precaution you take, there is always someone stupid enough to **** things up. I wish it were different...

I think it probably happened in the school parking lot. I'm going to park even further away from now on..

When ever I try to park by myself I always find people parked right next to me when I come out. It might sound rediculous, and my friends don't even believe me, but it is true. One time I was going to starsucks with a friend I had not seen in about 5 years. I parked way away in the parking lot with three empty spots on either side (not exagerating). I told him, "You watch. When we come out there will be someone parked right next to us on either side but no one in any of the empty spots." We did not even get into the store and someone had parked right next to me. When we came out sure as I am typing this that both spots were filled next to me and no one in the other spaces that were empty when we came in.

Howeird - you know I'm nuts so this may sound like fun one day:
Take your car out 'errand' running, park in a spot, wait 5 minutes until someone parks next to it, move it to another 4 car open parking place, repeat.

I wonder if people will 'follow' his car around the lot?
