Have you ever just wanted to walk through the store looking for the ass that belongs to the only car in the parking lot that felt it needed 3 parking spacing to rest in?
Recently on a trip to Office Depot I had just that exact thought..
It was rainy but nothing you couldn’t walk the 20ft or so in without getting soaked head to toe. As usual the lot was packed when I came in with exception of 2 free handicapped spaces. I picked a space parked and made the oh I don’t know 35ft or so hike from my work van to the door.
Walking about the store I gather my supplies and hit the check out line. While paying for my stuff I see a heavy set man walk into the store shaking off the small trace amounts of rain that collected on his person. The man acted as if he was caught in a hurrican down pour of rain and not the slight mist it really was outside. This man was really bugged by the fact he got wet from the rain and made a display of it for all to see as he huffed and puffed while knocking off the rain water. What the hell he was really trying to wipe off I have no clue like I said it was a light mist outside. Not even enough to wet your hair down thanks to the limited exposure.
I remember thinking what an asshole, probably got a spot a shit load closer to the door than most of us too..
I go on about my silent thinking walking out the door to the van and start loading bags. Noticing that the 2 handicap spots directly in front of the door now contain a shit box old 80s cutlass. The cutlass was parked on an angle to take up both spots. Headlights on, engine running, with the back end of the car sticking a good 4ft out the back of both spaces.
A loud grunt causes me to spin my head around at the store entrance. Yep it’s rain guy again pissed off that it’s still wet outside. He walks right up to the cutlass gets in and goes on about his merry way. No handicap permit on the mirror not even a handicap license plate on his car.
I think man what an asshole! Then instantly start wishing I had one of those “You park like a dick” cards or something similar that my Uncle used to carry around in his truck.
Which leads me to You Park Like An Asshole.com what a focking great site! Hit the site up and download one or two of the YPLAASS notices in adobe pdf format. Print a couple out and share them with the asshole drivers you come in contact with on a daily basis.
