If someone went nuts and assaulted someone over this I'd understand why you're so upset. But this started as a simple gear grinder when it happened again to pylon.

Here's pylon's original post that started this tangent:

There wasn't a car in any direction for probably 100 feet. I come out, and there is a rusty, beat up, POS late 80's, powder blue Thunderbird missing a hub cap parked right next to me.
Not the end of the world, but when you see a relatively nice car, parked all by it's lonesome, in the middle of nowhere, it is kinda an unwritten rule, and mutual understanding that it's usually a car guy, just trying to avoid a door ding or two. Probably just someone RL trolling, but it's just one of those things you don't do.

So let me get this straight: his car
did not get dinged by the other driver, and yet this somehow still upset him because apparently everyone is supposed to be aware of an "unwritten rule" and have a "mutual understanding" that if someone is parked near the back of the lot they're a "car guy" and you're supposed to respect their space (more than you do other cars?) and not park anywhere near them? That's a load of BS right there. As long as I'm fully within the lines of my space and don't ding other vehicles, I'll park wherever I damn well please and not think anything of it.
