    That is like every morning at my local Walmart . . . .
    And in the evening, I swear able bodied folks take their grandparents with em so that they can leave em in the car in the handicapped spot
    IDK if that is preferable than parking in the fire lane :facepalm:

    People are selfish AF, lazy, entitled fucking POS [in general]


    I have a valid disabled tag
    I use it when I need it, luckily I have done enough PT that those days are fewer and further between
    But it has been a long hard road to that point

    Walmart parking lots are worst both handicap an non. Then you have the random panhandler/beggars that sneak up on you asking for money.

    Its rare to not see them here. Ive had 2 come up on me asking for money. Last guy was in his mid to late 20s saying he needed money to go buy a sammich inside. I was like annoyed and confused as to why this person was talking to me. And I said no. Then as im driving out i see him get some money from another guy two rows over

    I haven't seen a panhandler at walmart in a while I'm guessing nobody gives them anything. That or they go inside and shoplift. Could be my schedule and they already got high and are resting up for later that night.

    I do park far away whenever I can (but always in one spot only) and I've still had a door ding on my truck since it was practically new. :mad:

    At the grocery store I go to, when it's drizzling lightly, people will drive onto the sidewalk in front of the doors so their passengers don't have to walk so far in the "rain" to get into the store.

    I usually take the wife's Corolla when I run errands now. I doubt I'd notice if it got another scratch or ding.

    It's only rain. Last week I saw a lady trying to get into her vehicle with the umbrella extend and the door open, don't know how she ever got it closed. I don't think it was even raining in that 10 second time frame. I stopped and waited it was a residential street and she lives their it's not like I can complain about that, I just thought it was odd that she went to all that trouble to avoid a few drops of rain.

    Residential streets and my peave of pick up drivers who don't fold in their mirrors tow mirros or other wise. It's a narrow street you drive a truck yourself and if it's the driver's side you are right there anyway. It's more lazy ass entitlement syndrome. Sometimes it's a work truck, can't imagine anyone too lazy to fold a mirror is of much use on the job site.

    I guess maybe grandparents just want to get out of the house perhaps. IDK but my wife has been laid up the past 2 months, unable to drive until last Thurs but still can't really go to the store herself unless she can carry the item in one hand. She'd want to go out for a ride just to not climb the walls being stuck home.

    Speaking of mirrors....

    I was parked in the spot correctly, nearly dead in the middle. I'm in my truck texting someone and a fellow pulls up in his full size truck with the large mirrors next to me, parking right on the line on my passenger side. OK he had enough room barely to get out and I'm alone so I don't care. He walks to the front of the trucks and reaches out, grabs my mirror, and roughly folds in my mirror...not his though. WTF?!?!

    That's a really strange move on his part. If and only if it's necessary will I move some one else mirror and that's only if there isn't enough room to get through with out hitting it but I'm very cautious and gently fold the mirror.

    Wide open spaces I don't care or even if there's plenty of room for others to pass. This is tight city streets or curvy roads where people always seem to park across from each other and only one vehicle can pass at a time. Really you're doing yourself a favor of preventing someone else from knocking your mirror off. Fire truck and ambulance needs to get through Trash truck any delivery truck all things most streets so on a normal bases. I get that not every can get around as easy most everyone els, so walking around to the passenger side on a oneway might not be doable. When it's a work truck with ladders and stuff on it you can fold in the mirror in and on the driver side non the less. Trucks already sit out a foot or more than most of the other vehivles, you live on the street so you know it's tight it's plain lazy. Maybe you forget or are running in and out, but once you're parked for the night.

    Exactly, it's one thing if you park close as long as you don't ding my truck. But fold in your own damn mirror first, and if you're going to touch mine don't practically slam it. Jerk. I ended up going in the store and checking out first, so went to fold my mirror out and he was behind me waiting. Glared as I walked around my truck and I said "oh sorry you had to wait, I had to pull my mirror back out".

    Narrow streets though yes, it's wise to think about that and act accordingly on your own vehicle.
