Really Specific Rants: People Who Drive Fast Past Me in the Parking Lot

That’s the part I don’t get; everyone is all about the kids these days, but then they tear ass through parking lots like they don’t think there’s any chance there’s a kid walking in a Walmart parking lot.

No, strike that - I do get it. Their kids are in their minivan, and to hell with the rest of the world.

But why would you return the cart? Just push it up against the car next to you! Everyone else does!

Shit, what about assholes who illegally drink drive? It’s a personality trait: the rules dont apply to them.

Well at least they’re keeping it in the parking lot, amirite?

Duuuude, I totally got thish… I illegally drink drive alluh time no problaaaaay-mo, mon, jes’ chillllll…

In a packed parking lot you almost always have to back out blindly. I go as slow as possible to give pedestrians and drivers time to react but I still have idiots honk at me as they fly past instead of sacrificing 5 seconds of their lives to let me out. If I’m the one with the right of way I always watch out for parked cars and give people room to back out.

And these people will often sit there idling for one or two minutes to save themselves 10 seconds of walking – brilliant.

As long as you use all five fingers when you wave.

Well that’s a more succinct reply than the PM you sent me calling me sanctimonious.

Any reason you didn’t dare to say that in public instead?
