Why is this downvoted? My experience leads me to believe the same. It could just be my personal interactions though…

ForeverOk7505@reddit

Can you buy a car from Sewell without it saying Sewell? It’s like carmax I don’t like labels 😳

[-]

SimiShittyProgrammer@reddit

The Dbags leave it on for virtue signaling.

[-]

g0atm3a1@reddit

I bought a new car from Sewell recently and just asked them not to place the dealership badge. They obliged.

[-]

ChrisEWC231@reddit

Comes right off. Any of those dealer names come off. Usually dental floss does it really.

[-]

No_Square_3913@reddit

Those Carmax labels are very easy to peel off.

[-]

PantherCityRes@reddit

Because we got a bunch of d-bags that go to Sewell for their cars and a bunch of d-bags that work for them…

Fun fact: got rear ended, had to have bumper assembly replaced for a 2006 Saturn Vue in 2010. Insurance paid

Huffines: $720 - they could get it in 2 days - knew the exact condition as pulled from a junkyard, refurbed, paint already matched

Sewell: $780, they didn’t know when it would come in, wanted me to leave the car for a week, didn’t know if their supplier would even have it paint matched or if it would be refurbed - but they promised me unmatched service…pfftttt

Guess who Im never buying from?

SadlyConfusicated@reddit

Back in my day no one did this, regardless of what they drove and whom they were. The problem is most of the younger generation and / or sheer lack of consideration and basic common respect towards others and society in general.

It is not germane as to the location (far away from an entrance or not) nor the time of day nor what even could be an empty lot or empty in that part of said parking lot. That'd like saying it's okay for someone to park in a handicap parking space and does not have the legal documentation, privilege AND medical need to do so even if there were 30 empty such spaces.

So yeah it is NOT okay to do this at all. What's my first reaction that I would want to do? Key the car up and down both sides of of the entire offending vehicle. Would I? No. Why? Because I'm a decent human being with values, principles, ethics, integrity and have a common respect for my fellow human beings.

Go ahead and and complain to my comment all you want. I have no need nor compunction to further your backwards way of what you believe is acceptable by your limited view of societal norms and common courtesy and manners. However I will pray for you.

And I pray for whomever the dbag is that parked like that.

[-]

Texadoro@reddit

I mean, at least he’s not taking up 2 spots directly by the door, he looks to be pretty far from an entrance and also this doesn’t look like a busy parking lot with limited spots.

[-]

bananabob23@reddit

More than likely… not sure why it deserved being photographed and shared online tbh

[-]

dasfoster@reddit

It’s still a dbag thing to do.

[-]

melx1599@reddit

[-]

Big_Personality5905@reddit

[-]

DoctorHeaven@reddit

If he’s far from the entrance and it still makes you mad, you have issues

[-]

dasfoster@reddit

Dude. It’s just being a decent and courteous human being. What if while that person is doing whatever the parking lot fills up and it ends up screwing someone over?

Just have some foresight and try and be courteous to the people that have to be on this planet at the same time. That really doesn’t seem like a lot to ask. Damn.

[-]

Rustlr@reddit

Parking far from the entrance in an area with plenty of unused spots is in fact a courteous decision

No one is going to be inconvenienced in this situation. You can drop the crusade, it’s unnecessary

[-]

dasfoster@reddit

No. It’s a dbag thing to do. Period. I can’t fathom why it’s so difficult to just park in one spot. And you don’t know if it did or didn’t inconvenienced someone. I was saying it was a possibility. And why be “that person” if it’s a possibility?

Stop trying to justify being inconsiderate. Damn! I didn’t realize that asking people to be courteous on the most BASIC level would that difficult for some. Seriously. Wow.

[-]

Objective_Smile5653@reddit

That’s not the discussion that’s happening here. It’s you.

[-]

DoctorHeaven@reddit

Yeah but you have to realize people are already thinking about that most of the time. There are pieces of shit out there and there are exceptions. But you can’t just assume things because assuming things is a very frivolous thing to do when it comes to human beings. I’m only defending the argument that you shouldn’t care because you don’t know the reason behind why they’re doing it and also you shouldn’t put any extra stress or effort into trying to figure out if you should care or not. If shit like this bothers a person then theyve obviously never had a hard day in their life and that’s my point. There’s 1 billion things going on every single day and we’re hyper focused on the wrong things. If this person is an asshole then cool. End of story. But everyone’s here just to argue for no reason and it’s really really disgusting behavior. Literally who cares bro? Who gives a flying fuck? Maybe this person is completely in the wrong or maybe this person thought the parking lot was empty enough that there aren’t going to be assholes out there judging him like he’s the fucking devil. It’s ridiculous what everyone’s arguing about here. And the thing that pisses me off the most is I’m over here trying to explain myself when none of this shit even matters. It’s at night and clearly this person made a decision. A wholehearted decision. That’s it. If he’s wrong he’s wrong. If it’s at night and there arent a lot pf cars in the parking lot, then cool who cares? I’m shitting myself how ridiculous all of these arguments are

BetoW46@reddit

The last time I parked like this was a parking lot at Walmart and parked far away from any other cars. Came back and someone keyed by new Datsun 240Z. Learned my lesson.

[-]

SpecialMud6084@reddit

I am very curious as to why you parked like that in the first place. Property damage is definitely not an appropriate scale response but there is literally no reason for this unless you parked while having a medical emergency.

[-]

Reclusive_Orphan@reddit

For all we know, the driver could have been Stevie Wonder.

[-]

DoctorHeaven@reddit

I don’t park like this but who cares? Who knows what reason they did this for? To say there’s literally no reason to do this unless is just controlling. Everyone needs to relax. No one on the planet is this high maintenance and controlling except for the people on this reddit

[-]

Additional-Sky-7436@reddit

Dude might have just left his cellphone or someone and ran inside for 2 seconds.

[-]

I can tell by looking at that spot. It’s the LA fitness lovers & Greenville. Right across from the entrance.

[-]

Reclusive_Orphan@reddit

I've heard that a lot of entitled types who park this way have been taught more respectful parking procedures at the Roofing Nails Under Tires Institute, held after dark 7 nights a week in most cities where Home Depot stores are located.

[-]

mika_sa17@reddit

Just curious, is this by Greenville and Lovers??

[-]

TheElDoradoHacker@reddit

I’d never do this. But there’s so much open parking and it’s nighttime, who cares.

[-]

CatteNappe@reddit

There isn't as much open parking as you might think. You are looking toward the side lot of an adjacent business, that granted doesn't get much use at any time of day. It's used mostly by delivery trucks, and maybe some employees. The parking action is behind "you" as you look at the photo, and it can be pretty busy especially later after work hours.

[-]

DoctorHeaven@reddit

You literally cannot see 90% of the parking lot are you smoking crack?

[-]

CatteNappe@reddit

I can see 100% of the parking lot when I am there, and I am there often, at various times of the day and evening.

[-]

casiepierce@reddit

Can you share where this is?

[-]

CatteNappe@reddit

This is the east edge of the LA Fitness lot at Old Town Shopping Center, at the corner of Lovers Ln and Greenville. What we are seeing in the photo is the drive up pharmacy at the Tom Thumb grocery next door.

[-]

kitsunegoon@reddit

Society could be better if we are more principled. It's like running a red light when no one is around.

[-]

TheElDoradoHacker@reddit

Not the same, running a red light and being wrong about no one being around could cause death

[-]

kitsunegoon@reddit

Would that make it ok to run a red light if you were 100% sure no one was on either side? My point is that it's such a minimal inconvenience to not be a prick.

[-]

MarkOfTheSnark@reddit

Yes that would make it ok lol

[-]

kitsunegoon@reddit

I mean you could also just park your fucking car like a normal person

[-]

MarkOfTheSnark@reddit

I was talking about the red light thing, dumb dumb

[-]

kitsunegoon@reddit

Ok so you're always running red lights when you know there's nobody around? No right? The fact is that the benefit of 20 seconds of your time is so marginal that it's just not worth it

[-]

DoctorHeaven@reddit

You’re wrong. Everything about what you said is wrong and everything about what you think is wrong. You’re completely wrong. You don’t know the reasons behind why people do things and it’s none of your business. 10 people can park their cars like this and if it’s away from the entrance then there’s no reason why you should care. He clearly doesn’t want anyone to hit his car so it’s not douche bag behavior. You’re the douche bag for thinking he’s a douche bag for no reason. And if you run a red light that’s been faulty and glitching and it skips your light then you’re not an idiot or a prick for running a red light or skipping a red light. You’re not breaking the law you’re just breaking a code violation on the road. There’s literally nothing wrong with skipping a red light if no one is around. And if you think it’s wrong then you’re just a really really weak human being and you deserve to wait at the red light for life.

[-]

TheElDoradoHacker@reddit

If I run a red light and I somehow could know for 100% certainty that no one was there, who am I being a prick to?

[-]

kitsunegoon@reddit

I mean if I saw someone running a red light and even if he didn't endanger anyone, I'd think that's prick behavior. It's more of the discipline of being able to resist doing something like that. Plus this type of stuff is learned behavior, and just like one person driving in the shoulder makes a bunch of other people attempt the same thing, I think it's bad to encourage that.

In context, this bmw parking like this is prick behavior because you don't know if the parking lot could end up filling up or not.

And at the end of the day, it's really not a big deal to just park like a normal human being.

[-]

Txcavediver@reddit

lol Karen. Bet you are a fucking blast at parties, running around with coasters and shit.

Y'know what? If someone at a house party used coasters, they'd be way more chill than the dude who parked across two spots with his bmw.

I told him next time, take two spaces.

idkimn0tcr3ativ3@reddit

So many people are saying this person is the asshole, but have any of you stopped to think that maybe this person (and many others) park like this bc of all of you careless assholes that door ding other people’s cars bc you have no respect for other people’s property?? I get that sometimes it’s an accident but most of the time it’s just carelessness. Some people have nice things and want to keep their things nice but unfortunately have to deal with other people who don’t know how to have nice things and even those really petty people who harbor hate towards those who have nice things and intentionally go out of their way to damage it and don’t even get me started on y’all’s bad ass kids... So maybe taking up two spaces to protect your vehicle is a bit of an asshole thing to do but on the scale of assholism, who is really in the wrong here??? Y’all have a blessed day judging others.

I fear social media has reprogrammed our brains to look for things to get outraged by.

It’s nighttime, there seem to be plenty of spaces, they’re in the back, no one is being affected or harmed - it’s not something to waste emotional or mental energy on.

[-]

The_Firing_Line@reddit

Every time I see something like this, I wonder "hmm was there a reason for this?". Immediately, I see a big concrete obstruction that would block the driver's side door, so they obviously couldn't part normally in that spot.

I'm not saying there weren't other options. I'm just saying to think about things like that. Don't just assume people are garbage.

I enjoy it anyway.

[-]

this-aint-my-main@reddit

You're actually a pretty bad person if you find joy from causing others pain, regardless if they have nice things. You should be a cop tho, they love arbitrary applications of justice. Then you can cause way more property damage and you'll be legally excused of all the consequences (as long as it's in "the line of duty"). They need some more sociopaths like yourself
