Evil Lives
We have a local parking nazi inside a mini-strip mall sitch. This man who owns the Westside Market also owns three parking spaces. He's allocated 5 minutes for visitors, to get in and get out. The minute you pull into your spot, before exiting your car, he is SCREAMING at you to make sure your planning to buy something. If you aren't, he berates you like the dirty fuck baby you are while smirking like the rat bastard he is. "Get the fuck out of that spot unless (beat for tonal change) you plan to buy something here."
P-Notz stalks his three spots every minute of every day. He's more concerned about you parking in his spaces than he is with you boosting his product.
Yesterday, we stopped in at Cingular. The lot was slammed. I told Ker to park in one of the Nazi's p-spaces. While getting out of the car, I told him I was coming to him. As he saw Kerri head to Cingular, he snarled (pigfucker). I said, "Breathe, I'm buying something, gaaaaaaaaahd."
I bought a bottle of water, the only thing I'm certain wasn't stocked back in 1969, and went back to the car, assuring him we wouldn't exceed our 5 minee stay in his precious spot. Two other people parked. When one broad told him she was hitting two stores, he barked at her, "You park here for my store only." Pointing to me (we must've hit the 6 minute mark), he waved his arms and wailed, "Get the fuck out of my space N-O-W." I didn't move. One minute later, he threatened to have us towed. I saw Ker making her way towards the car. PS: All of us were kicked out.
He must have such high blood pressure. Even though there is limited parking in the lot, I'll give him that, his eagerness to berate people and incite anger seems to be his primary objective. People are already so pissed off with the price of gas and worrying about losing their jobs, etc. etc. etc. Does he really have to be such a monumental prick? Or, am I being an irrational, insensitive bitch? Maybe I am.

You couldn't make this shit up. Who would want to?
Because that's the second best way to ensure returning patronage. The best way obviously, would be to slap any children or elderly accompanying the customers.
"I bought a bottle of water, the only thing I'm certain wasn't stocked back in 1969"
Oh man, he's the furry luncheon meat-type.
No, no, it's still good. You just scrape off the blue and green off the turkey, heat it up in the microwave, and it will be better than new.
No, that bread isn't stale, it's vintage.
I'd call his bluff on the towing, as it takes the trucks at least five minutes to get to any lot and hook up a car. But he'd probably call them early the next time you parked there, just to be evil.
On the plus side, someone is going to park in one of his spots and walk away. He'll get so worked up that his head will explode like in "Scanners."
I do think he needs a sweet piece of ass, no doubt about it. I wonder when was the last time he got laid? Definitely not in the past 10 years. Right?
MADE ME SCREAM.
Oh, he is so furry lunch meat.
PS: I promise I'll stop saying this soon... I WISH YOU STILL HAD WP. Your comments should explain why.

Liability eradicated completely, I promise.
I am printing a copy from the above URL and keeping it in my car. The next time I run into p-notz and hocks my ass or anyone else's, he gets the lettah.
Grazie toots,

You know, it's great that you're able to recount these tales of madness.
