Parking Thanks for your considerate parking; a can opener helped get me out, done without scratching or marking your car, you ignorant lout.

Hobbo's Poems 
LOL I remember being about 7 months pregnant and when I came to leave work, somebody had parked so close to the driver’s door of my car, that I had to get in on the passenger side and clamber over the centre consul. It wasn’t pretty. Once I had backed out, I left a little note under the windscreen wiper of the offending car to notify them of the inconvenience they had caused me.

As Mr Wilcen rightly comments, there are some ignorant people.

In Spain, it is common to give ‘besitos’ (little kisses) to cars which are parked too close…or just parked at all really 🤣

Also they don’t teach you to park when learning to drive, and they don’t always ask you to park during the test. That’s how I passed 🤣

You learned to drive in Spain? 😀 What a great cultural introduction!! 😀 When we were in Paris, the road rules I learned there confounded me. It felt like I would never get used to it. But I suppose one does, given enough exposure.

Well we ARE talking people. (Dogs don’t park cars.) People are inconsiderate idiots. This humor quickly turned into a bit of bile. A bile-smile?

So I guess it doesn’t have to be a clever title, Hobbo, just the one that intrigues me. And yes, I got a good laugh today. I think everyone can relate to this one! Funny poem, but not so funny when it happens!
