No longer the big city
Monday through Thursday, I pick up my daughter from preschool around noon. Every day in the parking lot (regardless of weather) the same three people take their minivans or high-priced SUVs and park ... in handicap spaces.

One lady who does this leaves her two kids (can't be older than 3) and stands inside while watching her kids through the window ... a good 50 feet away. She laughed one day about parking there, saying "Well, if nobody else is using them I guess I will."

Is this an acceptable practice? Surely this lady is just plain ****ing lazy, right?
 
My wife would take pictures of the cars and give the pictures to the police.

I'm too lazy too care about the lazy ****s in the handicap space.
 
True stories: Bar owner buddy of mine and his wife are known for being lazy. They go to bed one night and, being lazy, they have their lights set on the Clapper. Diane turns to John and says "Turn out the lights." John says "It's your turn to clap."

Diane tells John he has to cut the grass. John, being lazy, would rather pay someone to cut it. So while she's out for the day, he has someone come over and cut it. She comes home a short time later and he sprinkles water on his forehead to look like he's sweating. She kisses him when she gets home, stops, and says "You lazy ass! That's not sweat, that's just water. You didn't cut ****."
Next time he has to cut the grass, he mixes salt with water so he's not busted.

I'm an asshole.
You know you really are an asshole! Shut up and sing the song.

I can have my lazy moments... and I would never park in a blue space.

One of my favorite, favorite songs of all-time. Better than anything ever released by Britney or Christina.
 
speaking as one of the handicapped among us, those who park in handicapped spaces unjustly are below scum. >:( >:( >:(

when i catch one in the act, i rip 'em a new one and warn that the next time i won't be so nice. >:( >:( >:(

that is all.
 
Oh, you don't want to know ...

- I've been in my apartment for seven weeks and haven't called the waste company. My trash -- in a can, of course -- is just sitting outside in the cold of winter.

- I had a P.O. Box and didn't check my mail for two months (seriously). I knew I didn't have the money to pay the bills that were coming in.

- My car last had an oil change 5,500 miles ago.

- Sometimes I have days off and don't have any plans. Why shower?

- A relative called to wish me a happy birthday, but I forgot to call him back. We haven't spoken in two years. Obviously, I'm not proud of this.

And the kicker ...

- I once racked up an overdue fee of $75. The library was across the street from the office.

Yeah, I'm one helluva catch. :D
 
On behalf of my paraplegic wife, I say **** these people. In the ass. Then in the ear. With a John Holmes-sized, razor-studded dong.
Asked the wife how she reacts. She said she's pretty understanding, unless it's raining. Then she wishes the wrath of god on these dicksnorts. And, if they're parked too close to the wheelchair ramp, she'll just make her way up as best she can -- and if she scratches their car with her chair in the process, that's just too bad.

When I'm with her, though, my car doesn't have a handicapped sticker or tag. So I'll park wherever and push her around. Way we figure it, my legs ain't broke and she doesn't have to walk anyway.

You can actually go a couple thousand more most likely, depending on the age of your car.

I bought a new car (2007) one year ago this month and the manual says oil changes should be every 7,500 miles.

No where in the manual does it say every 3,000 miles. I think that's a number for the oil change companies to try to get more business.

I'm not sure if that applies to my ride, a 2000 Cavalier with 190,000 miles.
 
You can get away with 5,000 to 7,000 if you do a minimal amount of city driving.

Stopping-and-going frequently? Making a bunch of 0.6-mile trips? I'd say get it done close to 3,000.

It's not like this is a small parking lot that fills up and you have to park on the next block. And it's not like this broad has a van full of kids. Two kids. Two. Once to surprise my daughter I brought her brother (still not 2) during a downpour. Handicap spaces were plenty, but **** man, how the hell can you park there while being able bodied and not be a lazy *****?

Oh, and she leaves the van running. With the kids in it. Standing 50 feet away inside.
 
I've never parked in a handicap spot, but I've often used handicapped stalls in the bathroom. In fact, I seek them out. Lots of elbow room, you know? My question: Is this worse/better/same as parking in a handicapped spot? I really don't know.

If it's the only open stall, I say use it. If there are other open ones, I'd stay away from the handicapped one.

I was in a packed airport bathroom a couple weeks ago and I saw a handicapped gentlemen waiting to use the handicapped stall. He seemed to glare at the guy when he finally exited, but if it's the only stall in a teeming airport?

You don't get fined 500 bucks for dumping in a handicapped stall
 
I have a handicap pass for a knee injury and I don't even use it because I feel like some old lady might fall and break a hip because I couldn't fight through the pain and walk 30 more feet.
