  • Excuse me for not teleporting

    The kids and I went to Costco today to pick up a few things we needed and of course graze the yummy samples. Even though it is the weekend we actually had a nice time and even managed to get to the checkout with no waiting. Upon exiting to store and loading up the car, This EW decided she wanted my parking space. I don't blame her, it is a prime handicapped spot right in front. However, she pulled up so close to the back of my Durango I couldn't back out. So I waited for her to back up. One of the Costco employees even told her to back up because the way she was parked she was blocking them from getting the carts up to the building. She finally did move, and the carts were rolled past the back of my car and up to the building. As soon as they passed she pulled right back up behind me. Then she had the gall to honk her horn at me for not teleporting away immediately. That was when I decided I needed to go wonder around the liquor store. I turned off my engine and went back inside. As I passed her she started ranting to her husband about the crazy lady and what was my problem. I smiled and took my time wondering the store.

    You win the internet today. I've never been a parking lot vulture despite my occasional leg/foot problems. If I can walk a 1/4 mile to the entrance, able-bodied EWs can.

      When I lived in a different town I was at Costco, had just gotten in my car and turned it on, but I didn't have it in reverse yet. I hear a honk and realize the honk was directed at me! I was so angry I turned my car off and just sat there until they gave up. This was NOT a great parking space. It wasn't close to the entrance, and the lot wasn't that busy.
      Replace anger management with stupidity management.

        I once walked out to my car at a mall and there were a couple of guys with a HUGE box on a flatbed behind my car. They were trying to figure out how to load the box into the side door of the van that was parked so close to my car that I couldn't open the driver's door.

        I suggested that if they moved the van out I could get into my car and drive away, leaving them the room to load the box up. Got a dismissive hand wave in reply. Not a problem, grabbed my phone, took pics of my car and the license plate on the van and went back into the mall to get some lunch.

        I don't know what happened after that. There wasn't any damage to my car, so I didn't care.

          I kind of envy your "F*** you and the horse you rode"-attitude. I wish to learn that so my bloodpressure would not be world champion high jumper always when something like that happens. And it happens!
