Does this piss you off?

The other day i was at the store and of course with a brand new tundra i park way out.....and still even tho there is tons of parking spots people still park 2 inches from you! So i was loading some stuff in the back of my tundra and this young girl pulls up 2 inches from me and swings her door open and nails my tow mirror!! It just left a small scratch but i was parked out as far as i could go.....there were 40 other parking spots and still she had to crowd me?

I have given up. I still park way the heck out, and people like to park right next to me. I also hate when people park really close to you and then squeeze out, and instead of walking along the side of there car they rub up against mine. Woman are the worst, and they have left plenty of nice scratches with there purse.

Here is a tip....and I saw this one with my own eyes and it taught this lady a lesson. Two woman pulled in next to me. My truck is Dessert Sand Mica, and it was extremely dirty because I hadn't got the chance to wash it. The color doesn't show dirt at all. Well the woman who was close to me, tried to pull that crap where they rub there purse and there body all along my truck instead of there car, well this time they got there lesson. All the dirt went all over there back...I heard the girl b*tch and get all mad. I just laughed to myself. She rubbed the dirt that was on her arm on the bed rail to get it off. It wasn't helping all the crap that was on her pants.

Just something I noticed. I love how people think it is acceptable to scratch up someone else's car because it is a truck, instead of scratching there own.

I used to live down a dirt road and I rarely washed my previous car because it would just get dirty the first time I left the house. Well, one evening I was at Wally world and when I came out I saw where someone had written "wash me" on the back window and on the side doors. I washed the car the next day and guess what.....where they wrote "wash me" was scratched into the paint. That really pissed me off. Why can't people leave stuff that isn't there's alone. Or walk along their car, not someone else's.

That is what you call “Murphy’s Law”. It drives me F in nuts! It is hard enough trying to drive a bigger truck around a shopping center with tons of insane people as well as tons of other vehicles, so we park far out so that we don’t inconvenience other people as well as keep our trucks from getting all banged up. In a case where I have to park close to other people I try to take down their license plates just in case I come out to see the paint from their vehicle on smeared on my mine and they have done peaced out.

I dont want to sound like an ass but I can tell that at least %70 of these problems are originated from women. Everytime you see a woman with a big SUV, GET AWAY FROM HER!!!!.
Cell phones are also a BIG issue in the streets. I Never use the phone while I am driving, and the few times I do I use my bluetooth.
Everytime I go somewhere I think more about where I am going to park than anything else. It's sad but people have no respect at all for everybody else's property.

A couple days ago the same thing happened to me, I parked in a nice spot and a really "big" lady parked right next to me as close as she could, wtf. She had like 10 parking spots all around. She was driving a tacoma that was so fuc*ed up everywhere (bumpers, etc). I was watching the whole thing from inside the restaurant. Her big ass could not fit thorugh the door so, there go with the fuc**g door wide open next to my truck. Then her 4 kids (savages!!) getting out...

A lot of people seem to do that. One lone truck parked in BFE and they have to park next to it. Maybe they think I am in their spot. Maybe they have a herding instinct and think there is safety in numbers.

Some a$$ did that to my old car. They wrote "Big Pimp" on my hood. probably a friend who thought they were funny. Well it never went away. People are stupid, and deserve to be beaten down some time. I kind of wish I saw them doing that so I could have made them pay to get it fixed.

I know that feeling. No offense to anyone, but girls and trucks are a bad combination. Don't get me wrong, I love a beautiful woman in my truck just like the rest of us, but it is such high maintnence. They have trouble getting in and out, they scratch the door up with there purse getting in and out. My girlfriend has beautiful long legs, and when she crosses her legs in the car she gets her feet or dirty shoes all on my dash. When ever she gets out of the truck, she slides her but out of the seat, so her blue jeans leave a blueish tint on the edge of the leather seat over time.....oh...and they insist on eating and drinking in the car. And I am the bad guy if I tell her she can't. Example...I will be careful when opening a Dr. pepper can so it doesn't spray anywhere, but she will just flip it up and it sprays on the center console. I am sure there are some french fries still stuck between the passanger seat and the center console.

So you ask....why are you still with this girl.....? Because she is one awesome girl, and if this is the only problem I have with her....that and she is a horrible cook so I end up cooking all the time, then I would consider myself a lucky guy.
