She's just really cold and direct. ZFG about people's "feelings". She keeps facebook around just to troll people on news comments and gets a kick out of making people :triggered:

She'd manage to :triggered: every single member on here into quitting within a day.

She wouldn't care about my involvement here, but I like my safe space.
Sounds a lot like my wife. I often have to remind her to play nice when talking to others. she has very little filter or concern how a blunt opinion may seem to others.

She's a smartass though, and that is precisely why we click.
Every smartass needs a dumb.... er.. never mind

Wife's car got hit while parked at work recently, this is why trying to keep things nice is a waste.

Obviously no note or anything.

Rusty calipers?
Red wheels ?
Curbed to shit tires ?

:thisisfine:

On a serious note can she park further ?
I park 500feet away from everyone else now that I got hit 3 times at work.

I just put those tires on an hour ago, that "curb" mark is from laying on the driveway.

No clue where she parks, but there are dents, dings, or scrapes on basically every panel of the car by now. People are fucking disgusting.

Yea makes sense. I try to not park around “people” when possible or go out of my way to do it. It :triggered: :tits: because now we have to “walk” but fk it.

I have never not gotten a car dinged ... :-/

This kind of crap has been my biggest issue with buying anything new. It's hard to justify it when other people are going to ruin the thing unless you never drive it.

You just have to accept that 12 bucket method and 9 layers of ceramic coating are pointless for a DD. Cars get used... you can do 10 years of DDing and the car will slowly get worn out with dings and damages. Such is life.

Nothing new is “collectible” anyways so :whocares: enjoy it, until it turns into a pile which is a ways away.

I avoid this shit by parking away, but more importantly picking the right spot. One next to a planter, and hugging it so close another 2mm would be curbing your wheels, or a extra wide spot, every lot has a few. Also, I look for one with no trees so the birds don't shit on it.

Sucks man, but it looks like that scrape will likely buff right out.

Speaking of... here's some shit I deal with at work.

First one, I had my Camaro parked in the mostly empty spot and came out to this:

Image

Luckily I backed in.

Next, the black MB is a friends. Doesn't look as bad as it was, but he had to do some gymnastics to get in.

Image

This shit almost makes me not above a good keying or flat tire.

I've seen the goddamned AZNs at work pull in like this and do it 2 ways. A 25 point parking job that still isn't in the lines, or literally pulling in at 20 MPH and cranking the wheel. Where they stop is :thisisfine: to them.
