Today, I was finally given a parking spot at work. It turns out to be between an expensive sports car that never parks straight and a giant truck too big for its space. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I had to come to terms with the truth that I'm absolutely terrible at parallel parking. After three failed attempts, I finally gave up and parked in a spot labeled "No Parking" just to make it stop. Of course, a car pulled in right behind me and blocked me in. FML
Today, I thought I'd found the perfect parking spot at work for once. Turns out, it was actually perfect for the parade that was scheduled for later in the day. My car got towed to make way for marching bands and floats. FML
Today, I was parking my car outside of my apartment, but the big truck next to the spot went over the line. I squeezed in anyway. Later, I discovered the truck had left and someone keyed my car. They left a note saying, "Good parking job, asshole." FML
Today, the last parking space outside my work was tiny but I tried to parallel park there in desperation. A school kid saw the whole attempt and sarcastically clapped me as I gave up and drove away. FML
Today, I'm so bad at parking that I saw the guy next to me openly cringe as I pulled into a spot. FML
Today, after I arrived at work, somebody crashed into my parked car and left a big dent. The impact pushed my car up onto the curb and I got a parking ticket. FML
Today, I found a parking spot in front of my work. I parked and another car pulled into the spot just in front of me. The next thing I know, the car in front backs up and slams into my car. Turns out she didn't notice the fire hydrant next to her spot and screamed at me cause I, "stole her spot." FML
Today, I had to drive through a parking lot that they fucked up so bad that you have to put your car in reverse to go around it. I have to go there 6 times a week. FML
Today, when leaving my apartment, I instantly noticed there was a giant dump truck in our lot, which turned out to be directly behind my car. After making a 20-point escape from my parking space and getting to work late, my roommate texts me, "DUDE guess what I got last night." A giant dump truck. FML
Today, I walked to work. I later discovered that my husband had parked my car in a no-parking area. My job is towing cars. I had to tow my own car. FML

First world problem if ever I heard one. Grow a pair and ask the sports car to park properly maybe?

just get there first OP. they can't park on your spot if it's already taken!
JJ_86 22
But what if they cramp up OP's car. (s)he surely wouldn't want to even scratch an expensive sports car.

If OP parked first the fancy sports car would most likely not mess up its parking job

*too On a side note, congrats for your new parking space and on properly using "its"!

That's if the sports car is parked tilted tail end away from the truck. Otherwise, he has no spot at all.

I hate those ******* tools that park their fancy cars all crooked cause they think it makes them entitled to it
foxwasalamb 24
i dont know, if i had a Bugatti id park however the hell i want to
mageepaigeee44 15
Then you'd be one of those "******* tools"

Don't be that person

They park crooked because they're attempting to avoid getting door dings and dents from bad drivers in the parking lot. They should just park farther away but I can understand why you'd want to avoid damage to a panel that could cost a huge sum of money to replace. Doing that in an assigned parking situation is still a huge dick move though.

Guys, I work at a supermarket. I got hit, and the driver just decided that he/she wasn't mature enough to face the consequences of their actions and left. Mind you, a rear bumper is not easy to replace. Now; say they hit the rear fenders. You can't just pop those off. All the sudden, you've got a massive bodywork bill, or rust forming. Rust is car cancer. It spreads and makes the vehicle unsafe. And repairs on an sports car? Well, depending on the type, those parts might not be mass produced. Look, I love my car. It's my baby. So I get trying to park in a way that makes it difficult to get hit. I always take the spot at the top of the huge hill. Carts don't roll uphill, and it's a corner spot, with a very gradual curb, so I can get a good distance from the other spot.

It's my Civic duty to tell you that they need to give you a brake.

I never tire of a good car pun!

Teach the guy with a sports car a lesson and bump into his car
burninsnow 23
OP would probably lose the parking spot for that.

and nice new insurance premiums.
ninjuh_wingman 29
That's a great idea if OP wants to pay a ton of money to fix their car as well as potentially get sued and have to pay for the damage done to the sports car.
that_band_nerd 22
Why not just have OP try and get there before Fancycar McDouche? Then he'll learn to park straight and OP will have his space.

It's funny how most of you guys look down on those who park wrong, but consider it 'okay' to dent or scratch their car for payback. What a way to scoop down to their level.

I've been told by parking enforcement that if a car parks bad it's their fault when someone hits them

Note on sports car: "Park straight or I get the keys out"

Talk about one being a douchebag, and the other just bring too wide. /:

Or talk to both of them perhaps. Try and appeal to their better nature's...

I drive a pickup, and I know that truck drivers problem all too well! I'm sure they feel bad, I know I do when I take up two spaces, even if by a little bit. Maybe try leaving a note on the sports car? It may not work, but it's worth a try.

Park it like it's hot!
