I don't know about rude, probably just lazy. On the other had I saw a minivan waiting at the entrance of a full parking lot when I drove through today. The vehicle was in the same spot after I parked about 100 yards away, put on my bow and quiver, and walked back to the range entrance. I think dense and lazy is a better description.

I was with a buddy of mine once and he pulled that parking lot vulture sh!t. I got him back about 2 weeks later. I drove to the very end of the parking lot and pulled in. Revenge was good!

All attention in the world today
All the little girls fillin up the world today
With the good comes to bad the bad comes to good
But I?m-a live my life like I should Now all the critics wanna hit it
They-say it can?t ever did it Just because they don?t get it
But I?ll stay fitted Knew ever committed Now this red cap
Gets a rap from his critics Do we always gotta cry? (gotta cry)
Do we always gotta live inside a lie (inside a lie) Life?s just a blast
Just it?s movin really fast Better stay on top or life?ll kick you in the ass
Follow me into a solo Remember that, kid So what you wanna do?
And where you gonna run When your starin down a cable
of a fu&kin mic pointed at your grill like a gun Limp Bizkit is rockin the set
Its like Russian Roulette When your placin your bet So don?t be upset
when your broke And your done Cuz im gonna be the one til I jet
I know why you want to hate me I know why you want to hate me
I know why you want to hate me
Cuz hate is all the world that?s even seen lately
I know why you want to hate me I know why you want to hate me
Now I know why you want to hate me
Cuz hate is all the world that?s even seen lately And now you want to hate me
Cuz hate is all the world that?s even seen lately And now you wanna hate me
Cuz hate is all the world that?s even seen lately
Does anybody really know the secret
Or the combination for this life and where they keep it
Its kinda sad when you don?t know the meaning
But everything happens for a reason I don?t even know what I should say
Cuz Im an idiot a loser a microphone abuser I analyze every second I exist
Beaten on my mind every second with my fist
And everybody wanna run (wanna run)
Everybody wanna hide from the gun (hide from the gun)
You can take that ride through this life if you want
But you cant take the edge off the knife (no sir)
And now you want your money back (money back)
But your denied cuz your brains fried from the sack
And there aint nothing I can do
Cuz life is a lesson you?ll learn it when your through
I know why you want to hate me I know why you want to hate me
I know why you want to hate me
Cuz hate is all the world that?s even seen lately
I know why you want to hate me I know why you want to hate me
Now I know why you want to hate me
Cuz hate is all the world that?s even seen lately And now you want to hate me
Cuz hate is all the world that?s even seen lately And now you wanna hate me
Cuz hate is all the world that?s even seen lately
Now I know why..Now I know why..Now I know why..Now I know wh...
Now I know why you wanna hate me!
Now I know why you wanna hate me!

RE: The ONE thing I hate!
I was at Home Depot on Saturday. I had one of those lumber carts completely filled with stuff. I wheeled it out to my truck that was parked pretty close to the store. A woman in a Navigator spotted me and sat there with her blinker on. I didn't slow down but I didn't rush either and it took maybe ten minutes to load everything up. I couldn't believe she sat there the whole time! She could have parked across the highway and made it into the store in all the time it took. Unfreakinbelievable!

RE: The ONE thing I hate!
Newgirl, I think I divulged some information of that sort at one time or another here, but since you are new?

Until about four years ago I was a teacher of mathematics. I was department head, classroom teacher, and dormitory supervisor for a boarding high school. I acted much more responsibly than my flippant remarks here might lead one to believe.

I abandoned that in favor of a career in software development, which is my current state of employment. I do not like it. I manage to get my projects finished by deadline, but I?m so bored that I cannot stand it.

I?ve got four and a half weeks of this to go, then it?s a little vacation, then back to the classroom. Now that was a fun gig.

What's yours?

RE: The ONE thing I hate!
It doesn't bother me at all that people may want to wait for my parking spot. What bothers me is when I wait for a spot anywhere in a crowded lot, and someone comes along a waits next to me, pretending not to see me so they can TRY and take my spot.

I think it was "Fried Green Tomatoes" that had a great scene where some young whipper snappers "steal" the old lady's parking spot! She had better insurance!

RE: The ONE thing I hate!
I criused into a good spot once without waiting. When I came out I had not so much as gotten my keys out and I already had someone waiting on me. I tossed my bag in the truck and walked back in the store. Pissed that lazy prick off. hehehehe.
After a min. or so, I went back out but got to my truck from the other row. When It was clear, I jumped in and took off.

RE: The ONE thing I hate!
To keep the parking lot vultures at bay, I like to walk back to my vehicle down a different parking lane than the one I've parked in. When I get close, I cut between the rows of cars and head out before the parking lot vulture can get there.

RE: The ONE thing I hate!
They are not paranoid. They are possesive. They couldn't/wouldn't share in kindergarten, either. One of those news magazine type shows (60 minutes, P.T. Live or somesuch) did research on the psychology of giving up parking spots. It was really quite amusing. People always took longer to get out of the parking spot if someone was lurking! Passive aggression!!!

Because I don't wanna be part responsible for some rude lazy prick holding up traffic.
With all of us being hikers, I hope no one at this site would ever do something so low as to be a parking lot vulture.

Ah...I get it. So you don't want my spot. But you have a problem if I want yours. Don't worry walkindude: I don't want it. You see, I don't mind walkin', dude.

RE: The ONE thing I hate!
flyguy, yes, they seem to be acting in a passive aggresive manner.

I don't care if someone wants my spot. If someone were waiting for a spot in the lot and didn't pull over enough to let others by, that would bother me.

Come on, cooooome on now, let go of the spot, I SAID, LET GO OF THE SPOT!

skiracer, I think its really that you get lost trying to find your car out there in that BIG parking lot.... so you wander in and out untill finally .... You have found it ! YES its the right car! now you get in and act like it was just to fool the parking vultures. LOL

RE: The ONE thing I hate!
LH, I hope you don't drive around a parking vulture!! That's just asking to get hit by the guy that's about to pull out. Also, it's no big deal to sit and wait behind one vulture but when you get farther down the isle and end up waiting behind another. Meanwhile, SOME of these people getting in their cars are farting around to piss off the vulture and I'm getting more aggrivated as hell in my car waiting for the games to end! Sheesh! I feel better now. :oP

RE: The ONE thing I hate!
Sunshine, I won't wait for spot in front of a store if there are others available elsewhere in the parking lot. If a lot is totally full, yeah, I'll wait for someone that is leaving. Does that make me a vulture? I never hold up others while finding a spot.

RE: The ONE thing I hate!
You misunderstood my question. You said, "If someone were waiting for a spot in the lot and didn't pull over enough to let others by, that would bother me." I was saying that I hope you don't drive around those parking vultures that are *poised* to take a soon to vacate car's spot. That would be asking to get hit by the person preparing to leave the parking spot. I didn't say you were a vulture or holding others up. :o)

Traversing the asphalt pad,
you suddenly become aware of a presence behind.
The slow crackle of loose gravel alerts you
as the theme from Jaws plays in your head.
It's obvious you are not alone
- you've been pegged by the parking lot vulture!

Maybe you guys could leave your car at the mall and walk home. Then nobody would get your spot. You could come back to retrieve the car after midnight when there would no longer be a demand for parking spots.

RE: The ONE thing I hate!
In all seriousness folks, I grew up in the land of full parking lots. I do not mind parking in the back, but sometimes even those spots are all taken. After I?ve been cruising up and down and up and down the lot waiting for somebody?anybody to leave, you betcha I?m going to vulturize your precious spot. As I wait patiently for you to vacate, I would appreciate you showing minimal courtesy and not purposely stalling just because I?m there. Thank you.
