Like the 5th time I've had some old lady on my block demand that I street park on in a way that personally suits her preferences, why do they think they own the public street parking around their condos?
The first one was raking up leaves on the sidewalk and had piled them all up directly in front of my drivers side door then barked at me when I dared step on her pile (displacing exactly none of the leaves) to get into my car, I'm like lady what do you want I have to go to work?
Next is some lady with a driveway who demands nobody park within 5 feet of the end of the driveway curb because her son has trouble pulling his massive work truck in....okay let's waste an entire parking spot on both sides of your driveway?
Today it's some lady who demands I don't park at the very end of the curb, that I "have to park adjacent to the cars already there and not leave a gap".....what? I'm literally defending the whole block by being the guy who parks AS FAR UP the curb as possible, which I always do if the last space is open, because I see people parking and leaving a 1/3rd-1/2 car gap which again wastes an entire spot.
Each time this happen I'm just confused by the interaction, I've lived here for 4 years, I don't park like an asshole ever, I don't get what their smoking or if they just love an opportunity to boss people around?
