we left the hitch on the back of my friends truck in hopes of accomplishing this agianst his neighbor. the alignment with the hitch would have holed his rad.

shame was that his dad got tired of banging his shin into the hitch before the event could occur.

The windows were down on his Tahoe and he had his wife and two little kids with him so rather than answering him, I turned to the kids and advised them to not grow up to be like their daddy who everyone laughs at and has no respect for (wife is now cringing & sliding down in her seat with a “here we go again” gesture). I then told him to move his truck and wait for me to inspect my car & give him the nod that it was OK to leave. I told him that if he left without my permission, I’d call 911 with a hit & run report & mention that the driver strongly smelled of beer (which was true)

LMAO frickin' awesome! Do you happen to still have any pics of the raving idiot?

Yeah when I run into idiots like that I'm often worried they'll pull a gun on me, that's just the personality type to do that. Reminds me of one time I was going to University and this guy in a black half pimped-out, half riced-out Vitara (I've spoken about those before) was absolutely livid about the fact that I nearly exited a roundabout before him. Either that or his own total lack of merging skills (an epidemic in this country) but I guessed the former. He continued to drive in front of me, drifting in an out of his lane and apparently trying to pass in dangerous spots. Later I got an opportunity to pass him so I shot past him quickly and left him in the dust, phew.

I figure this asshat is headed to the clubbing area south of the University where he will get E36 M3-faced drunk, take some fat ugly skank home (or to the nearest bathroom/wooded area) and not remember anything by the next morning. By now the guy rolls up behind me as I'd been sitting in a line of traffic for a few minutes. Well he has to go through these lights to get to the clubs, and he didn't run into me, no big deal. Oh crap, HE'S FOLLOWING ME INTO THE UNIVERSITY. WTF? This seems just like the kind of person who would threaten someone with a gun because it gives him more sexual satisfaction than he could ever get from his tiny penis. As soon as I got past the speedbumps, I flipped on the high beams and pulled away from that guy so quick his little brain probably couldn't process what happened.

Here is an artist's depiction of what he was probably thinking.

"Uh, where'd he go George, where'd he go???"

He pulled into another parking lot on the side. I parked the AE92 in a dark corner behind a construction vehicle and went to class. Phew.

I keep saying I'm going to put my sister and her boyfriend's parking jobs on that site. For some reason I still haven't done it. I'm so lame.

in my younger and more vulnerable years, i was parked at a restaurant in maryland, which was next door to the liquor store. i came out to find an intrepid parked up against the back of my truck and a bystander said he hit it pretty hard and ran into the liquor store.

being probably 20 at the time and angered from previously having a dump truck literally tear a 4 foot hole in the side of the bed of my truck while i was in the store while leaving no note, it was not in the best interest of someone to hit my vehicle in a parking lot. i put it in reverse and backed the truck up onto the drunk's hood about 2 feet. not something i condone, but i'm hoping he learned not to hit anyone else's crap anymore.

Waaaay back when, when I got my first new car (1977 VW Rabbit) I took my girlfriend out to dinner and parked at the far end of the parking lot, surrounded by a sea of empty parking spaces. When we came outside after finishing dinner, there was a fairly new Cadillac parked right next to my Rabbit. We were the only two cars on that end of the lot so it's not like there was nowhere else to park.

As I approached my car, I noticed a large dent in my previously pristine passenger door. Yep, the Cadi driver had smacked my car HARD with his door.

I carefully opened the car door for my girlfriend and let her get in. After closing the door, I somehow managed to slip and my foot mysteriously went up into the air, about midway up the Cadi door and about an inch farther in than where the door skin had been. OOOPSIE!

Reminds me of a time about 2 years ago when I had my 1989 Civic Si. Really my winter beater car with over 189k miles. Met my wife and kids at the mall. This being around Christmas time parking was scarce. So I finally found a space for my wife to pull in and I went looking. Found a spot, but the car owner decided to park over the line so far that the inside shoulder of the tire was parked over the line. Since my wife & kids was waiting for me, I pulled into the space. My passenger's side was literally about 3" from her driver's side door.

We did our shopping and ate lunch, came out about 2 hours later and walked my wife and kids to the van. As I am I see a person trying to get into that car that couldn't park. So I head over to my car and see it's a lady trying to figure out how to get in the driver's side door.

She starts to get into the passenger's side door and climb over the center of the car. While she is doing that I unlock my door, get in and pull away. Noticing her stuck and staring at me bluntly :)

Not that I would never condone this, but if vigilante justice is your game and somebody damages your car you can do something very simple:

If the car has a "springy" antenna, snap it off then proceed to flick the small ball (hard as you can) at the end of it into the window of your choice you'd like to break. Be pleasantly suprised by the results.

didn't read the rest of the posts, but you should have went back in, asked who the @$$hat was with that car, and you and your friend should have given him a swift kick in the sack.

There are few problems that cannot be solved by a suitable application of high explosives.

No, democrat talk would be everyone deserves a 3 series, regardless of their education or finiancial status. Furthermore, if you have one, as a gratitude for being able to prosper in this nation you should have to give it to some one who doesn't have the same advantages as you. You know, like a work ethic.

The republican take would be if you have a 3 series you should be given a tax break that can be passed onto the owner of a Honda. After all, you worked hard and enjoyed that car, why should you be punished further? Let someone else pay for the roads that can't afford or doesn't have the drive to get a 3 series. Unless they drive a "domestic" car that was built in another country, in which case, they should recieve tax breaks for shipping jobs overseas.
