Parking garages here piss me off
Oct 21^st, 2009 at 2:35pm

Who the hell thought it was a good idea to make all the parking spaces Prius sized so they can cram extra spots in these garages?

One of two things will happen:

Someone will park too close and shave some paint off my door getting their fat ass out of their car

OR

Everyone takes up two spaces and completely defeats the purpose of the dumb ass spacing anyway.

Off to the body shop I go! %$#+

I have a Pacifica for a company car and spend a lot of time downtown. That thing fills up 110% of those spaces and I'm just waiting for my first key or major ding. How bad is the estimate?

I haven't had my car whacked yet. I am waiting for it. Just wait for them to start making Smart car sized spaces ugh.

Sorry to hear that. Let me know if you want some help, I'd be happy to help out with it. I've had a lot of scratches on a lot of sports cars, so I have some skill with it.

Just pisses me off someone could be so careless to leave that big of a gash. Thanks for the offer. Maybe the next one!
