In major cities, there is irregular hours buses and subways (Quite frequent in my case). But of course, smaller cities don't always have that chance.

I'm glad my street doesn't have many driveways and most people park on the street, despite some being idiots when doing so. Also glad I don,t have to use a car in the city.

But Brik, that was a great move blocking them from getting out. He might have gotten out but now he might think about it twice next time he parks there.

Still a huge douche though...

In Boston the trains stop at 12:15. Whenever someone tries to extend the hours, the cab unions pitch a fit. It's disgusting.

Anyhow, tonight they parked on the unshoveled side, at an angle... One car taking up two spaces. Fuckers. But still, I'm in my own spot, so I'm happy.

Yeah, I'm sure it is, but even people who live in cities with no irregular hours public transport, like Cardiff (which is a medium size city), don't seem to realise that the people who work at their beloved 24 hour shops and bars have to get home too.

Of course they don't. Worthless peons can walk their asses home.

Brikar here's a thought, get a big box of nails and tonite before you go to work, scatter them all over your side of the driveway... let your roomate in on the plan though. After spending out a few hundred dollars to replace tires full of nails, they may think twice about parking on your side again.

Also, I'd start taking pictures of their cars parked on your side, even when they park at an angle making it difficult for you to get in/out of your driveway and tell the landlord that if he doesn't do anything about it you'll put your rent into an escrow account until he does.

Last night, our side was clear. Hopefully, they got the message. I don't think we'll be putting nails down, but we already talked about telling the landlord we'd withhold rent until something is done. If it happens again, we're ready.

It makes me glad to be living in a house with a pull through driveway and no neighbors with shared parking.

Mind you.. I don't have a car..

Fucking asshole neighbor left a note on my windshield today saying that if I parked in his lot again, he'd tow me. "This is your only warning," it read. Seeing as how I wasn't in his lot, I wrote him a nice note in reply. "Dear asshat, I was not parked in your lot. If you have my car towed, bad things may happen. Don't be a dick. XOXO, your neighbor." Going to give my landlord a call tomorrow, I think, since this guy's douchebaggery directly effects everyone that lives in two of his properties. If a nice cease and desist letter doesn't change his mind and my car still gets towed, maybe he'll let me borrow his lawyer. Since I'll be taking photographic evidence next time I park near the line and there are multiple people in the complex who actually HAVE had their car towed for no reason, I'm sure I could convince him to settle. And since not having a car could potentially cause damages in my job hunt...

If that doesn't work, maybe his car's tires won't have air in them the next day.

Pathetic. What you need to do it blow his car up.
