May I suggest a delicate business card of anger in place of the actual practice of keying said car?

I know that I take extra care to park to give the maximum room to people on both sides, and when I'm in a hurry it's the fear of keyers that makes me take that extra second or two to straighten it out.

The only parking job I'd say actually deserves a keying is the obviously intentional diagonal parking job, in a place/time where it's clear there will be limited parking. I'm talking full-on two spaces at 45 degrees, in a small parking lot or at Christmas time or something like that. To me, the dick who thinks that's going to keep his Hummer from getting a scratch should be proved wrong. Not that I'd do it myself. But if I were, that's who I'd get.


Do you live in DC? It's impossible to barely get out of the car when parking at WF or TJ; if you live in the city you know you're going to get a little dinged. I can't believe people are so riled up by these minor injustices. And, no, I don't drive a massive SUV and I'm a considerate person.


It's one thing to get "dinged" by the door that someone opened when you parked too closely. It's an entirely different story when someone gets out of their car, takes their key and scratches the length of the car.


That's my point. I'm not going to key someone's car even for a "ding" let alone parking askew as some pp's have confessed.


Oh OK. We agree then.

I'm so glad I don't have this level of anger. That's gotta be no way to live.

I don't understand. He was fucking HER -- why would she be pissed at YOU?


Obviously the lover found out that the guy was married ... he probably lied to her. Isn't that generally the story?

One time someone smeared gum all over my passenger side door handle for (presumably) parking too close to their car. Admittedly, I was pretty close--still room to open doors/get in car, but had to do it carefully.

What frustrated me about it was that I had to park like that because when I arrived, the car parked to my left was already moved over pretty close into my spot. I parked equidistant between the two. When parking in a tight, crowded garage, this happens sometimes.

I felt it was a pretty shortsighted, narrow minded, and immature response to a pretty common life situation.

No, I'm not that angry. OP please get help. You could land in serious trouble if caught. Do you do this in front of your children???

Maybe you should take your own advice and just "get over" the scratches.


His "perceived" injustice translated into real money for me. So, no! I'm not getting over it any time soon. I didn't cause any damage to his property. Nothing I did was illegal. Can't say the same for him. I wish your car gets keyed horribly so you'd understand my point. You should be ashamed of yourself.
