Default car painted

so i'm in houston visiting my cousin for the weekend, and the apartment complex has a small, gated parking area. he tells me that i can park in this one particular spot, that it's kinda like a "community parking spot" that visitors use all the time.

well, we went out yesterday, then when we came back around 8-ish pm, one of the other tenants sees us coming in, and is like "hey, is that your camaro?". i was like "yeah". then he says "man, did you see what happened?".

so i turn around and look, and there was a note under one of my wipers that says:

"this is not a parking spot.
guests should park in the street or risk being towed."

then after they put this note under my wiper (it looks like a girl's handwriting), they took some copper-colored spray paint and sprayed it all over my windshield.

luckily, it was only on the glass, with just a bit on the plastic side moulding at the driver's-side edge, and i was able to scrape it off with a razor (but i'm still gonna have to hit a pressure-washer car wash to get all the loose overspray off my car....).

seriously, wtf?

there was no sign anywhere that says "no parking", and as i mentioned, it's used a lot for visitors to the place....even the landlord OK'ed it.

but i tell you what, if i ever find the little **** that did it, i'll wring her ******* **** neck

yeah, it was definitely regular paint....when i was scraping the paint off, it was pretty thick in some places, and was hard to scrape it up....it was definitely no friendly joke.

it's really shitty, because it had to be someone that lives here in this complex, the place is really small....there's only around 12 - 15 apts in the whole place. we've talked to a few people, ones that my cousin knows fairly well, and we're pretty sure it's not any of them....there's only a few apts that he doesn't know the people, he's only seen these folks in the parking lot, but he doesn't know which apt. they live in.

and it definitely has to be a girl, i just don't think the handwriting could be a guy's writing.....and seriously, who the **** has copper-colored spray paint, other than some artsy type?

peope are such ******* ********* these days, they got huge ***** when they think they can hide behind anonymity, and that they are "entitled" to something, even if they're not. i guarantee you they would not have the cajones to do that and leave their name, or do it in front of someone.

i mean, it's not like i was going to leave the car there for a month or something, it was only going to be there for a maximum of 3 nights....a simple note saying "please move your car, we don't like you parking here" would have been enough....i would have moved it, no problem. but they had to resort to being a crazy piece of **** and vandalize my car for no reason at all.

but that's fine, if they wanna resort to that type of action, i can, too. just lemme find out for sure who it was....i'm the nicest guy in the world until you cross me, but all's fair in love and war, i guess.....

My thoughts exactly. Park there again, with an "OK" from the landlord, and I'd wait around. You know they'll do something again.

When they mess with it, call the cops. They think a parking ticket is bad, try vandalism...

well, i'll be leaving houston today, i was just visiting for the weekend.....so i won't have the time, and don't have the necessary equipment to do something like that.

plus, i dunno if it's worth it to use my car as bait like that....you never know, they could just nocholantly walk by on the side of the car that doesn't have a good camera angle and key the **** out of it, or something. my insurance currently won't cover that, and besides, i wouldn't want to have to go through all the hassle of being without my car for a while, since it's my DD.

now, if i had some type of shitty beater car that i didn't give a **** about, i'd be up for something like that, but i don't...but you know, i've kinda halfway been entertaining the idea of getting me something like a jeep wrangler or something, for a DD & off-road fun car....maybe if i can find something for cheap enough, i may do just that....

anyway, i filed a police report, so if anything at all is found out about who did it, i will be pressing full charges, and i will **** their world up real good...they wanna be stupid, they deserve something like this on their permanent record....from that point on, they will have just narrowed down their choices for job opportunities by a lot.
