Haha...totally forgot about this thread. Made it last summer. It was a good laugh reading through the new comments though. In retrospect, I wasn't all that pissed about him parking next to me mostly because he kept his car in good condition and I could tell he meant no harm.

People park like that to line up the car to the parking line; its quite difficult to line up a car without a point of reference, so parking next to someone makes it a lot easier, and you dont have to adjust the car 5 times to get it in an appropriate position.

//thread closed, lol

If they need other cars to help them line up theirs then they need to go take parking lessons. The lot is empty. They can park any where and how they want. Parking next to someone when there are plenty of other spaces is just being an ass, especially when the 1st person has parked the furthest distance away from mall, etc...

Who gives a shit how your truck looks? You may take care of your truck and are careful when you open your door, but accidents do happen. You're increasing the chance of causing a door dent to someone's car when you park directly next to them when there are other empty spaces. And you would be more of an ass when you do something that you know people don't like it.

LMAO! Hey who knows? Maybe it's that guy's lucky spot and you just happened to park right next to it.

Whenever I park far away from other cars there are usually a few others that have done the same, I always leave a space or two between my car and theirs for their car and my car's safety. But the OP's pic makes me want to scream, very frustrating and it isn't even my car.
