Are you kidding me!? If you ask a stupid question, you are going to get these types of replies. Like I said before, when I see someone who parks on the line and takes up 2 spaces I think "wow, what an asshole" and yes that includes you.
I'm not even going to comment on that...I think that asking a question to get information in order to have better knowledge on what to do and not to do next time around is wise. Questions are made to be asked and you can give what ever answer you want. However, if the answer is 2 times as stupid as the question, then what have you done answering it...other then aggravating me?

When I asked it, it was legit, I was trying to figure how bad perceived was the parking in 2 spots buy the folks on this forum (which to my knowledge are representative of a respected class in society) so here I am just a newbie trying to see what is right or not. I could be an asshole and shit talk back, but where would that bring me? What would it do for the good of this forum? Nothing.

On that note, in the last 2 days I have been called an asshole more often then whole 23years of my life so I think I get the point: No 2 spots!

Thanks

Your question is similar to asking if it is ok to drive on the left side of the road or do you think people would mind if I sat with my windows down and blasted my radio as loud as possible? You are asking a question that does not need to be answered. Your question annoyed me because I see people do this on a regular basis. It's a !#*!$&* car man!!! Get over it.

You're on these forums why, again?? I thought people that frequent forums of any type are exceptionally passionate about that particular subject/item.

pretty weird post. I just park in the biggest spot I can find or far far away from everyone else or If I can find other nice cars. In this day and age...being that it happened to my lexus....jealous people like to KEY peoples cars or smash em up a tad. So if someone is that d-ck enough....sees you parking in 2 spots with your pretty little bim bim....they might take it upon themselves to do something stupid. I dont take chances anymore My last car was keyed beyond belief....but that was by a chick

Man I wish people would read before barking...

1- Some other members of this forum said that they did or still do park this way. Your question comparaison makes no sens, you are comparing oranges with condoms.
2- Obvisouly you need to define what hell I need to get over since I said that I will no longer take two spots because of the helpful coments I got.
3- If a question annoyes you, dont answer it!
4- And at the end of your post you say "I see people do this on a regular basis" you should go up to them and tell them what you think see if you have the balls.

C'Bimmer calm down!!


Nice comment GT Premi...love it
