“I guess I’m a bad parker,” says Renee in San Antonio — but really, how bad does a parking job have to be to inspire this kind of blind rage? Especially when the scene of the crime is the parking lot outside a big box store like Best Buy, not some precious residential block.
P.S. If you’re thinking “PMS bad,” next time I escape from the kitchen, I might have to give you a barefoot kick to the crotch.
![Dear Asshole, Next [time?] you get your fat inconsiderate ass out of your piece of shit, take a look at the impeccable parking job. Its [sic] underdeveloped people like you that make the rest of the world wish for an apocolypse [sic]. thanks!!

I’m on team note writer here. People don’t leave notes like this when you are a little crooked, you must have really parked horribly. If you did and you are too lazy to fix it you deserve said note!

In the interests of a fair and balanced report, you really should have taken a photo of your parking so we can tell if this is unreasonable or not.

I hope you are a woman because they are the ones I like to bash the most. If you were a man I would have to accuse you of being a stupid immigrant, which isn’t quite as much fun, but close.

I thought it was starting with an instruction to get out of the car. “Next, you get your fat, inconsiderate ass out of your piece of shit…” I was so confused. Why would she be writing this note with the driver still sitting in the car. Then it dawned on me.
The missing word in the first sentence, the missing apostrophe in “it’s,” and is that a period after “its”? All of these things put me firmly in the corner of the bad parker. No matter how poor the parking job, this writing is worse.

Team Note-Writer. I’ve had to climb in the rear passenger side to get to the driver’s seat too many times. It’s enough to make me wish I hated my car enough to scrape the side of the bad parker’s car. People who are too stupid to park inside the lines and too entitled to fix it deserve to hear about it. I’d leave my number though cause I’d love to have them call at me so I can yell directly at them.

“Underdeveloped”? Is that like an A- cup size?

I had someone park crooked next to me where their front bumper basically touched behind my front bumper making it impossible for me to backup without hitting their bumper. There was a car in the parking space in front so I couldn’t pull through either. Luckily, my bumper is an all metal cow-catcher or roo-bar so it won’t bend and I just backed up and cracked the other bumper in the process. But if I had a regular car and it was expensive, I’d be stuck there.

It’s the THANKS at the end that I like.
Just adds that little extra bit of something. Like frosting on a turd cake.

Um, impeccable usually means great, or flawless, right? So, this gay man was really happy with the fat ass’ parking job? What’s with the hostility then? I’m emotionally torn.

The thing that gets me is that apparently all women have a husband (who can incidentally control all comings and goings by nature of being a husband). “If you are a woman” versus “If you are a married women”
Honestly, “You park like a schmuck” would be plenty of comment–the rage-fest is something else again. (And the handwriting looks very girly to me, too).

The writer is obviously female and she’s pissed that someone else stole her bad parking thunder. Jealously is one of the main reasons we bust out the “fat inconsiderate ass” insult. I prefer “fat dumb ass”, but to each their own.

Hm, I’m giving this note a solid D. The insults contained within are so cliched and unoriginal that the note writer would’ve been better off going with a simple “LEARN TO PARK, ASSCLOWN” than attempting to be clever with this mess. I mean, insulting one’s weight/appearance, insulting the quality of their car, the whole “YOU’RE WHAT’S WRONG WITH AMERICA/THE WORLD” thing, and any sort of sexist/racist/religion-ist (By the way, is there an official word for that yet?)/whatever-the-fuck-generalizations-you-care-to-make-about-whatever-group have all been done to freaking death. I was disappointed by reading this note. Would I be a hypocrite in saying that recycling trite phrases in a pathetic attempt to be witty and insulting in an original manner is what’s wrong with America/the world? Note Writer, if you have two neurons to rub together, you can do better than this mess. Of course, that is assuming that you do have at least have two neurons to rub together. (OH SHIT, YOU SEE WHAT I DID THERE? GODDAMN.) In any case, this scores an F for creativity.
The total score is brought up by the handwriting, which I’m giving a B+. It’s pretty legible, although I’m sure the end of the first paragraph doesn’t say “It’s underdeveloped people like you that make the world wrzle for an apocalypse.” The note writer also seems to have forgotten to use a necessary comma and an apostrophe, and maybe a period (although it may be so small I just can’t see it).

In my experience, the shitty park job is highly correlated with huge mother SUV with a turning radius measured in parsecs. The people who drive them often point them in the general direction of a parking space and seem satisfied when they’ve converted 90-degree parking into 45-degree angle parking.

This most certainly was a woman writing this note, and I dare to guess she knew the parker was a woman. She was so riled up by this because I bet someone has done the same thing to her before. She was so excited she forgot to write “time” after “next.” Hope she got all of her aggression out on that one. Her husband must love coming home to her.

The note is horribly scrawled and the petty rage contained therein leaves a lot to be desired. I would rule against the note writer save for the fact that Renee didn’t opt to include a picture of the parking job in question. This leads me to believe that it was an epic parking fail and Renee is lucky to get off with a pissy missive.
You “guess” you’re a bad parker, Renee? I think we both know that you’re the Osama bin Laden of bad parkers.

I think the bigger crime is the way this note is written. I have no clue what that first sentence says…….this definitely inspires grammer-rage in me.

This is a woman writing this note. I’m surprised that it’s even a question, what with the bubble letters. I’ve always thought of this as “rich bitch” lettering, no “average” person writes this way. (Smashed up angry, bubbly despite the rage displayed.) So…. this is an entitled bitch, who is angry that someone else behaves the way she feels only she should be allowed to do. That’s my psycho-logic to it, anyhow!
And the best part is, you can revel in the fact you made her this mad, with your “fat ass” plunked right down in “her” parking spot. She’ll tell all her friends about it over a cup of Starbucks at the gym. It’ll be the topic of the day!

I have left notes for similar atrocities. But the parking has to be really bad. Like the pickup that parked in four (yes, four) parking spots in a supermarket parking lot or the little Honda that thought the lines meant “this is where you put your tires”. There is a site for this kind of thing. They even give you little print-out papers to keep in your car in case a situation like this arises.

Even though I have never met Renee, nor do I know anything about her, I wholeheartedly agree with the letter writer.
Renee is a horrible HORRIBLE person who deserves to burn in Hell and be posted on http://badparking.wordpress.com/

I like how this is tagged under casual sexism. I don’t disagree that that’s what it is, but I like to imagine the labels for the other types of sexism.
Overt? Direct? Aggressive sexism? Amateur, pro-am, and professional-level sexism? Is there a level below casual that’s kind of like half-assed sexism done by a stoner who can’t be bothered? Disengaged, unmotivated sexism?

Parking confession: This week, when it was pouring rain, I actually considered stuffing a sweatshirt under my t-shirt so I could park in the expectant mother spot in front of the store.

I’m honestly surprised at the level of offense in the comments toward the ~misogyny~. Usually people don’t seem to get offended here. I thought it was funny, especially in a “u mad” way, and I’m a woman. It’s clearly a woman who’s writing it too, even better…

Shame on his caretakers for letting him out on his own. He probably shat his diaper and had no one to clean him up.
