Simple, if you don't park like a twat Yogi won't tag your car. Kinda like like if you don't speed you won't get a speeding ticket etc etc etc. Is is vandalism? Yeah I guess but I can see how someone would get pleasure out of it. Toilet papering someones tree in their front yard is vandalism as well as littering but the cops would hate you for calling them over that as well. I mean it would take time away from busting Curtman for drug possession and all

Yogi Yogi: DrCaleb DrCaleb: I'd consider it vandalism too. I work hard to keep my car shiny and scratch free. I didn't let the dealership put stickers on my car, why would I be OK with some asswad doing it? I also 'work hard' to keep my vehicle 'shiny & new'. BUT... should 'you' DECIDE to make me a 'victim of your inconsideration' you should expect to be paid back in spades! That's got to one of the dumbest things you've ever said. Some guy parking like an ass doesn't give you the right to deface his car. What is the price for a door ding, assaulting him? Frankly, your crime (and it is one) is worse than someone parking like a tool. Two rights don't make a wrong...

BUT... should 'you' DECIDE to make me a 'victim of your inconsideration' you should expect to be paid back in spades! As for 'scratches', there are none. Albeit it takes about 1/2 hr per sticker and all your fingernails to remove.  I've never been an inconsiderate parker. I am the guy who will park at the far side of a lot (between the lines), just so no one is tempted to give me door dings. Yet, someone still manages to run a shopping cart into my door, or use the trunk of my car to set their bag of groceries on while they open the trunk to their rust bucket. I've even had to repaint doors and hoods from 'cool' folk who like to just lean their ass against my car, and let the brass rivets from their jeans dig deep into the paint. As for your stickers, you have absolutely no need to stick anything to my car. As much as I hate people touching my car, I could understand putting a note under the wiper if I parked badly, but I have no tolerance at all for anything that someone may consider harmless that cause me 3 - 4 hours to buff out of the paint. And peeling a sticker off the paint of my car, regardless of the method, would cause visible scratches.

Thanks for pointing out the site. Poor parking is sort of a pet peeve. I can park my crewcab dually longbox properly so it's no excuse for anyone with similar or smaller/shorter (which is effectively everyone else) not to be able to do the same. The Impala on the other hand goes to the back of the lot!

commanderkai commanderkai: Thanos Thanos: People would most likely park better if the stalls hadn't become so goddamn small. Even for a regular sized car they now seem tiny. Like it'd kill these stupid shopping centres and other places to give an extra foot per side. ....I drive a huge vehicle (1990 Cadillac Brougham)..... PIMP DADDY!

Hah. I drive a Saturn. I like to go "Look what you just did!!!!" and then pop it out and laugh! One girl hit the front near the bumper and while she was fishing for her insurance I stuck my foot in and popped it back into shape. She just about shit when she looked again and there was no dent! My other vans a $600 POS. Dent it and gimme $100 to STFU and not call ICBC. Just don't chip my minitruck, or I'll go all "careful with that axe, Eugene" on you.

I inherited it from my Sicilian grandfather when he died. You can literally fit four adult bodies in the trunk You should see how the US Border Patrol searches that car like crazy when I bring it across the border.

If you think it does no damage to put it on the windshield, I invite you to look at all the gouges on my drivers side front quarter panel at all the scratches deep in the paint left by all those well meaning people putting flyers under my wiper. They just have to drag their zippers and crap all over the paint.

Once I sent an employee out to paper the High school parking lot during Grad. I happened to look out the window and saw this guy look at the flyer, and start walking across the muddy soccer fields towards our store. When he came in the door he was screaming about how dare we put something under his wiper he should beat the shit out of us, then tossed the balled up paper at the kid who did it. I came out of my office and told him to get the fuck out of my store and never enter it again or I'd call the RCMP and charge him with uttering threats to my staff.

herbie herbie: Once I sent an employee out to paper the High school parking lot during Grad. Ahh, you are one of 'those'. Just a question, not meaning to be confrontational - something I've always wanted to know: What makes you think that kind of advertising has any effect? Truly, I am curious as to the thought behind that sort of advertising, because I see it often, and I also see the parking lot full of paper that people then throw away. I'm kind of like the guy you experienced. I would shit up and down anyone I caught scratching my car for the sole purpose of giving me advertising I don't want. Just like I do those poor door to door salesmen.
