Angry FREAKING A! Another SCRATCH!

Why does the DMV just hand out a license to ANY IDIOT who walks through their door? Probably the same reason as every other stupid thing in this world, money.

I AM SO PISSED! I parked at Starbucks last night to visit my girl, and the spot I took I thought was primo: curb on the right, a little tight on the left, but usually that's ok, since the driver's door is the one most opened.

Anyway, this morning I noticed a BIG *** SCRATCH! I'm talking over a foot and a half across the side of my bumper, and another about 8 inches under that. Some of it wiped of, but most of it is deep enough it took all the paint off.

AAAARRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHH! If I ever see that SOB POS Buick that did it, he is getting keyed beyond belief. Yet ANOTHER thing I have to fix on my car that wasn't my fault.

Oh yeah, one more thing. There was also TWO MORE inch long scratches under my door handle. WTF!?!!?!?!?

At least my car finally has a name. I'm going to call her "Scratch".

knows how that **** feels....
parked on a street by a friend's house
this spot only was only for one car cuz you have driveways
to the back and front....
* a suburban from NJ decides to block the driveway and parks in front of me, when I went on to the terrace to smoke a cig..thought to myself dang that dude park a lil too close. I decided to go downstairs take a look. the suburban has a towbar sticking out from the rear and put two big scratches that took the paint right off......

*I was already upset cuz one of my rims is bent/i felt like im running into a lot of miscellaneous **** i gotta fix on the car..

*took my alloy bat and gave the suburban mirrorless/dentful/keyed look to it.....

Where I park for work, I have a column(sp) on one side of me so I back in as close to it as I can so I give the spot to the other side all the room in the worls. I still see dumbasses pulling in so they are not even a foot away and leave all kinds of room on the other side. I have left notes on the windshields of a few of the *******s, they don't normally park there any more. It really pisses mr off that people can't respect other peoples property and have to do that. I see dip****s trying to parallel park here in DC that don't use the mirrors, they go until the hit the car then pull forward and do the same there. I was sitting in our company car and some ****head did that to me, I was out of the car and raising hell with the driver. He didn't see me relaxing in the car and I scared that **** out of him. Luckily he hit the front license plate bracket and didn't do any damage. The car is a new Caddy DTS and I take VERY good care of it.
Sorry to read about the scratch and I hope ya find the ******** who did it!!!!

So you're the one who wrecked my mom's Suburban?

It's even worse when you catch your own father who, co-signed for your car with you, using your car as a guide. Amazingly, not a single scratch in my otherwise easily scratched black paint.
