34. A Winner Is You

34. A Winner Is You

It would be insulting to those of us who park properly to describe what we see in this picture as 'parking.' This isn't parking, this is just leaving your car in the middle of the road, and walking away. You could fit two motorcycles side by side in the gap between the car and the pavement! To make things worse, it must have been left like this for some time. If it weren't, our revenge artist wouldn't have had enough time to devise their punishment.

Someone - probably someone who lives very close to the badly parked car - has taken the time to snap a photo of the vehicle, run inside, load their chosen photo editing software, add a rosette, and print it out. That might seem excessive, but parking jobs this bad deserve the reward that comes with them. We only get better at things if people give us feedback, and this super sarcastic feedback is precisely what the driver needed.
