I need to buy a wheel boot on eBay....

Swoop · 06-19-2007, 07:52 PM

So here's why:

My girlfriend, myself, and the little girl she babysits are pulling into the parking lot at the mall. We are about to pull in but there is a car backing out of a spot which inhibits be from pulling completely in the lot, so I wait patiently while he backs out. Meanwhile, there is another car in the parking lot waiting for the spot. Also, I should mention that the street I'm kind of halway in is part of the mall street and is not busy.

So while we're waiting there a little itty bitty car behind me begins honking like crazy and I motion to him there there's nothing I can do while we wait for the gentleman in front of me to back out. "This C U Next Tuesday" behind me tries to squeeze by me on the right (and I mean squeeze inches from me and from the curb) while I kind of pull in his way a little more and honk at him to let him know he's an asshole. He then pulls straight into the spot that the other guy was waiting for. I am furious at this point, not because I wanted the spot, but because the other guy waiting didn't really stand up for himself. I begin to flip out a little and pull over a little and wait for him to get out so I can stick my foot up his ass. Meanwhile, while I'm waiting many cars begin to pull behind me and in front of me so I become the asshole now and have to move. I try to go around the lot as quick as I can so I can lay into him, but by time I get back to him him and his fat ass g/f are heading into the mall. I scream to him " are you retarded?!" but all he does is turn around, smile, and flip me off.

I swear, had I not had the kid in the car I would have been down his throat so fast, but in the end I'm stuck with my panties in a bunch while he waits for karma to give him the HIV.

Regardless, I really want to buy a Wheel boot, like what you get for parking illegally and not paying your fines, and put it on people's cars that do stupid ass things like this.....What do ya think?

chbrules · 06-19-2007, 07:55 PM

NoTrash · 06-19-2007, 08:05 PM

FOUND ONE http://www.autosportcatalog.com/inde...d=3373&sc=3364

chbrules · 06-19-2007, 08:07 PM

Found it!

chbrules · 06-19-2007, 08:11 PM

You know, you could simply buy one of those big bicycle locks with the big metal bar on them.

Or you could just buy a really fat chain gauge that would be super tough to break even with a lock cutter and slap on a huge masterlock on it.

If they're too dumb to see it, it'll destroy their wheel well.

Man, we're evil.

Autobot · 06-19-2007, 08:17 PM

oohh i like i like

Just don't think I could ever do this to someone, Karma is a bitch, EVEN IF they deserved it

magmd · 06-19-2007, 08:17 PM

Just carry a huge knife....slash the tire. Just make sure he does not know where your car is parked.

iatacs19 · 06-19-2007, 08:19 PM

Swoop, let it go man.

Some people are just assholes, don't waste your time or energy on them.

I hope you had a good time at the mall though, it was hot as fuck outside. You guys get some smoothies ?

Swoop · 06-19-2007, 08:34 PM

nah, went last night....had to change the battery in a couple watches and the gf had to get some stuff for the kid....Ohhh, I want a smoothie now...

Swoop · 06-19-2007, 08:36 PM

I would really love to do this sometime, but you have to be very leary of who sees you, not leaving fingerprints on it, where surveilance cameras are, etc...otherwise you're Fuct!

iatacs19 · 06-19-2007, 08:38 PM

Jamba Juice!

karliejai · 06-19-2007, 08:39 PM

pop his tires is the cheapest way to go... hell... pop all 4 of them...

btw, thats a cute little drawing =)

TiAg335i · 06-19-2007, 08:48 PM

Lol, similiar thing happened to me today, except it was an old man, I flipped him the bird and I'm pretty sure he saw it.

chicagolab · 06-19-2007, 08:48 PM

In Chicago many residential highrises and other buildings have large orange stickers they stick on the driver side window warning people to not park in unauthorized spaces. These stickers have strong adhesive and are tough to get off, they never peel off in one piece and they are pretty big so they are annoying enough to block view out the window.

I propose getting these type of sticker and imprinting your own words for idiots like the one you mention. e.g. WARNING The driver of this car parks like an A$&hole!!
