Well today I over slept because i my alarm clock stop working all of sudden after a trip to teh wall. So i take my car to school today, and im it was convinient to see a person leave their parking spot just about when im entering the campus lot. Then I proceed to my class that had an exam waiting for me, but I studied ok and it was a breeze. So I was thinkinh to myself "hmmm I feel pretty good today". So when I walk to my car to go home, I see an older generation thunder bird parked crooked. his rear passenger side is into MY side of the parking lane. Then I look at my rear bumper and I see little white lines thats residue of the bumper clash it had with my car. And to top it off, its parked so close i cant get to the drivers door. So, calmy, I open my passenger door and reach into my glove compartment. I get my valve core remover and use it on the front passenger tire and the rear drivers tire. Then I hopped in my drivers seat thru my passengers side and drove off. Harsh? yes. Do i care? probably not

Isn't that considered a...confession? Damaging evidence against you? An incriminating statement?

yes.... if i said which school i went to and I reported it, which i did not edit: i dont get why people have that kind of paranoia about posting in forums. whens the last time you heard someone got busted for something they posted in an international community. I mean NICO is well-known, but c'mon.

Much better than the last revenge you posted. I hate people that don't bother to learn how to park. I frequently leave notes instructing them to educate themselves in the art. If someone bumped my car though, I would definatly do something similar.

I definatly would have left a note though, so that the person KNEW that it was a direct result of their carelessness. That way they might think about it next time.

There was some punk at my high school who drove a Chevy Metro. He'd just park wherever there was room...meaning pretty much in the middle of the road if that was close to his class. One day I was heading to my car for luch to find this damn blue metro parked BEHIND my car and the one next to me. SO neither car could move. I have three friends with me, and after a few minutes, the owner of the other car shows up. He's got two people with him. Guess how many people it takes to lift a Chevy Metro... Four. So the five of us have no problem. We carry the car over to some trees and place it between them so there is no way it can be driven out--they are about 5 inches away from either bumper.

The car was there for a few days.

Don't get me wrong...I could care less. It just seems kind of...stupid to openly admit committing a crime. It's more of a character thing. I've spent my time on the other side of the law and the statute of limitations are up on most of my activities...I still wouldn't brag about it. You never know who's listening.

I have done worse, accually my friend did it. I had a person hit my civic and drive off before. I was at the local college when I had my maxima scraped. I confronted the driver after the incident. The scrape was right on the side of the front bumper of the persons car. They denied it. I wetsanded it and polished it out. Saw the car a week later at school, same car same scrape on the bumper. My friend got out and decided to use a screw driver to brighten up their paint job.

Core tools are great!! The shop i work at we do this all the time. Air is on tap, so it's not much of a problem to correct, but still fun to see guys get pissed about it. (we only do this to employees, the real pranks we play on the customers!)

I have a bunch of cards in my glove box with instructions on how to park a car. They're quite obvious and insulting. I very much enjoy leaving them on people's cars. Of course...when I go to walmart in the '04, I always go way out to the end and take up four spots crooked so I don't get dinged--but that's WAY out there, where no one else goes anyway, so I don't think that's as bad. I'm not causing any inconvenience to anyone, or damage to their car.

HAHAHAHHA about the metro story, I had a real similiar experience. Me and my friends were out in the night and we see this meto with the doodooest parking job so we picked it up and dragged it to the other side... next morning, he got a ticket for not moving his car for the cleaning. (NYC has the law where you cant park in that side of the street during certain hours and days of the week for cleaning.)

I try to do the same thing, but it never really works. Even if I take up 4 spots, some dumbass will park parallel to me. Like there was a parking space there. When I saw this, I was like "WTF?". People are idiots.

I need to get a valve core remover. I usually just push the little button in the valve stem to let the air out. Takes awhile, but it works. If the person did something really stupid (doesn't deserve a liscense) I will take a wire end cutter and cut the valve stems off.

I used to drive this ****box 91 buick lesabre... it had a big steal bumper on the front.... well anyway i used to live across the street from a high school, and im parked on the side of the road next to my house, in front of me is half a cars length of yellow curb and then my driveway. behind me is lots of other cars. i came out this day to find another car parked me in, he parked on the yellow curb, and half his car was blocking my driveway!!! yeah, i put that big steal bumper to use!!!

i didnt take a pic at the time, but i found this pic to illustrate teh example, thats my old buick on the left, imagine it parked where that big van is, and then someone parking infront of me. i couldnt get out, so i forced it, it was kinda fun.

*pic was taken as i just pulled in the driveway the day i bought my prelude.

I actually got mine at walmart. It's tiny. Literally fits in the palm of my hand. Has like 3 threaded ends on it if I remember correctly. Just insert into valve and twist!

...Not that I've ever done it or anything..
