You see a beautiful car parked away from all the other vehicles.. - Page 12

In my college years I would have found a curb or an island. But the older I get the less lazy I seem to be. Even if I have to walk all the way back to the store I'll walk it back.

Not saying I think less of the people who DO it...but I don't feel like I personally need to be doing that to others or the poor guys having to play rodeo round-up for these suckers in the rain and cold.

Who leaves their shopping carts in the parking lot and who puts them in the return?

I always put mine in the return, more for the benefit of the guy who has to come out and bring them back in, than for the people in the lot.

I park my bike in the cart return. Fuck your carts. They need to be on the lot damaging hoity toity fancy ass cars.

I ALWAYS return the cart. If a store has no place in the lot, I'll walk the cart back to where they keep em normally.

I put carts in the little island so they don't roll towards someone's car, but why should I walk them all the way back to the store? Stores have employees who do that. And they're hourly, not salaried, so what do they care?

The guy who got ragged on for over a year because he turned every thread on TWF into a story about him.. I could go on. I wouldn't be the one to cast the first stone if I lived in such a shiny glass domicile.

Edited to remove a touch of douchiness.

The last three cars I bought were hit in a parking lot within a year of owning them. The latest one within a month. These cars are far from fancy but it's infuriating that some dumb ass will damage it and then run off, No matter what the car is worth. This summer I was actually in the car when it got hit. The damage was borderline invisible but since the stupid bitch and her loser Boy Friend were complete assholes about it, I was sure to get a new rear bumper installed and painted on their dime.

Since then I sometimes park farther out than I have to. I dont take up 2 spaces or any of the other shit that everyone got into in this thread. Repairing that shit is expensive. With all the salt around here a simple paint chip can turn into a lot more in a hurry. I figure not wandering around the lot for a close parking spot is rewarding enough to justify parking a little further out anyway.

I can still see the humor in parking next to someone in the back of the lot though. Most people who would do that are not that likely to be the ones who accidentally ram their door into yours etc. I would probably just laugh
