Re: I figured it would happen eventually...
Parking lots are incredibly dangerous places to be! How often have you seen someone just speeding through one, cutting a 45 degree across the lot?!?
A couple of years back I was driving our (now former) '92 Camaro and pulled into a parking lot to use the ATM in the grocery store. I was checking a voice mail on my cell phone so I sat parked for a couple of minutes, just long enough for this old guy to struggle with parking his Ford Mt Everest (or whatever the hell the biggest SUV Ford made was called - may as well have been Mt Everest as it was indeed that big). Yeah, he's trying to pull into the space directly in front of me, and I'm wondering why on earth someone would buy a vehicle that they can't maneuver or park? Really, what's the point? Well, you guessed it. He hit me. Not hard, just a little tap, and fortunately right against the front license plate. Honestly with this car I wouldn't have cared that much if he actually done a little damage, but that's beside the point.
Anyway, I step out of the car and walk up front to inspect for damage, and notice his bumper is still up against our car, so I stand there staring at the guy. He finally steps out of his Monster Truck and says "What?" I came back with "Nice bumping into you to today" in a highly sarcastic tone. He looks at the two kissing vehicles and responds with "Hey, it's not like I hit it that hard".
Huh...what?????? Seriously??????
So I said "The point is to not hit the other car at all" He just sort of shrugged and walked away.
Had this been the Crossfire I might be in jail right now.
