    Parking in front of someone's driveway is definitely an asshole move, but so is using parking cones to block off an area on a public street that isn't yours to claim (other than the area directly in front of the driveway). I'd run right tf over those cones and park there just to spite them.

    If it is his normal parking spot, it is not. That could be the only place for his car. Guests can take a hike on a solo erotic journey.

    PS I've never seen any young parking cones. Usually they are old and worn. Mine are bloodstained from using them to kill ducks back in the day.

    Uh you don't get to reserve public street parking, usual spot or not lol

    Please correct me if I'm wrong, because if so I will start doing this outside my house as well. But I'm pretty sure I'm not wrong.

    I have to put cones in front of my house because people think it’s street parking but actually it’s part of my front yard/driveway that I paved and I need that spot for delivery drivers, visitor parking, and access to my mailbox.

    It’s connected to the street, but so is my driveway.

    I even have documents from the city in case I need to tow someone’s car.

    This might look like a****** parking, but it's not. By the time the old woman got to the store I'm not sure she remembered where she was, how she got there, or how to get back home.

    Not even remotely straight
    Not all the way in the spot
    And half blocking the drive lane...

    Oddly enough, 90% of the vehicles here were backed in all nice n neat - but then this guy!!

    Help her out how? She was an old woman, in a beat up vehicle, going to the grocery store to probably spend the last little bit of her social security check. There were 20 other people in that parking lot and store not far behind her. Bloomington is a very interesting place. You go in town around IU and it's very upscale with nice restaurants and nightclubs and stores. Drive a mile or two out of the city limits and you're looking at a pretty economically depressed area.

    I'm surprised I'm the only one that took note of that comment. So what did these ducks do to bring such a fate down on themselves ? Crap in the yard, eat the goldfish out of your pond, rape the wife and kids? And how did you arrive at a parking cone as the weapon of choice?

    Lol, it's called a killing cone. You put the cone upside down and put the bird in headfirst. The cone helps immobilize them, you cut their head off and it helps drain the blood out:

    You pass the attention test! I used to keep ducks for meat and eggs (Gold and Silver Phase Anconas and Indian Runners for those who care). Cones were used to immobilize them, not hit them. Google for pics of how it is done.
    PS the back yard, where they used to be is now so much better for growing things, because of their poop. Years and years of nitrogen rich poopy water.

    Yep. Thank you. Works even better for ducks with their long necks.

    I didn't think you actually chased them down and beat them with the cones, but I was interested to hear the story. Like I said, you learn something every day. Today i learned I'm glad I'm not a duck....or chicken.
