Ignorant, inconsiderate and arrogant!

And here's some male bad parking to counterbalance that:



Being an inconsiderate sod who can't park is not exclusive to any gender. Neither is using the "I'm only going to be a minute" excuse.

How do you know who parked the white car?

There is nothing wrong with how the white car is parked, assuming it isn't owned by George Osbourne's driver

OK, I have to ask. What white car? Oh - I was looking at the wrong photo - ignore me.

And had it been a 6 foot builder I bet you wouldn't have said a word.

You don't know me, but I would have said something to the builder as soon as he barged past me, long before the parking incident.
We do however get a few tradesmen in that little shop, and I have never noticed any bad manners from them.

thats not parking. Thats loading

Exactly, and there is a guy in the back of the truck, so if anyone comes along he can jump down and move it.

There's a 'regular' at our local (gastro) pub that insusts on parking across the dropped kerb outside the door (pedestrian one - not a driveway). The abuse you get when you ask him to move so that the 20 stone male wheelchair user can get out of the road is unbelievable.

Last time I asked if he would like to lift the chair up the 6 inch kerb instead of me.

Sure you can, it's not on to threaten to put a man in hospital either, especially over a parking dispute.

My comment was based on the first incident in the shop, when she barged past me, elbowing me out of the way. It looked as though she already had a strop on and was going to take it out on the first person she saw.

I shouted at a man who was letting his dog foul the pavement and didn't bother picking it up. I was on my bike though so I just rode away before he could do anything.

I once picked it up and followed them home and smeared it all over the car handles of the cars on the drive and the front door. The rest went through the letterbox.

People can react vey strangely when you catch them out doing something they know they shouldn't. I once returned from two weeks' holiday to find a woman from three streets away with her dog on my lawn, letting the dog do its business. From the state of the lawn, she had been doing this for a while. I got pretty cross, and ended up by asking her how she would feel if I came to her house and did the same thing on her lawn (I didn't have a dog at the time, and would have needed to perform the task personally). She went utterly mental and accused me of all kinds of perversions and insanities, and then backed away like I was Hannibal Lecter. She didn't come back, though.
