A couple of weeks back a friend of mine was parking while someone slipped in and took her spot. She confronted the lady and to tell her it was her spot. The old lady stated she did not understand english. Pissed off , my friend left and found another spot 15minutes later. Yesterday my friend noticed the same lady had her signal for a spot so she swooped in and took it. The old lady comes out of her car yelling (mind you in perfect english) “WHat are you doing? I had that parking spot… yadda yadda yadda”. So my friend was like “Oh now you speak English, when its your spot…” The lady goes back into her calls cusses a bit and leaves. This morning my friend’s car was keyed. Obviously it was her; but it wont be enough for the police. ANy suggestions on how to handle the situation?

Okay – that’s just weird. If you see a burning bag on your stoop, why would your first instinct be to stomp on it?
Okay in all seriousness.
Let it go. There are more important things in life to worry about then a parking spot.

You have trouble finding parking spots in Greenwood Heights??? Wow. Who knew?
My husband’s preferred method – which is subtle yet effective – is to leave a note on the offender’s windshield, held down with a brick.
Usually works.
chicken…she comes out the door, sees the burning bag and stomps on it. Go back to your cricket game. 🙂
Back in the 1980s in Chicago I was dating this Mexican guy and he asked me to drive him somewhere so he could take a baseball bat to someone’s windshield who had been giving him trouble. I did. Boy was he grateful that night!!!!!
Angel R. where are you these days?????
“fill a paper bag with dog poo, set it on her stoop, light it on fire and ring her doorbell.

Although I’ve often heard/read about this, I’ve never witnessed it myself.
How do you get the poo into the bag (can you train your dog to aim well)?
Also, what happens to the bag? Does the bag burn away leaving the residual poo on the stoop? Or does the poo also burn, giving off noxious gas?
An uneducated Brit wants to know!
Good heavens! That’s my hood! I’ll keep my eye out for old ladies bearing keys with an evil eye 🙂

“the old ladys car is, but its a Volvo”
Oh forget it then, I don’t have a Volvo, but a V _ _ _ A!
