So I was out driving my SUV in the rain today
I would normally drive the Prius, but I was delivering hot meals to the homeless shelter and really needed the carrying-space. Besides, it's a new hybrid SUV and it gets around 40 mpg.

So I pulled into this parking lot, and the only spot available was kinda narrow because the jerk on the other side had parked right on the line. But I managed to put it in the space and be within the lines on both sides. So I ran into the store to pick up a few things and was on my way back to the parking lot.

That's when this crazy person comes out, screaming about being unable to squeeze in the door on the driver's side. Apart from the fact that this lunatic wasn't there when I parked originally, his car was all crooked in the parking spot - frankly, I was worried that he might have hit my vehicle. I didn't know who this person was talking to, because there was no one else within earshot, but he was apparently having a conversation with SOMEBODY as he got in the passenger side and tried to crawl across the center console. I suspect it might have been a little easier if his pants had actually fit him. So there's all this cursing and shouting coming from the car while he's trying to fold first one leg, then the other, across the gear shifter and the console. I think he must've farted while being totally contorted in the middle of the front seat, because the windows fogged up and it sounded like an explosion.

Anyway, by this time I had reached my SUV, just in time to see the other car come flying out of the parking spot, and its driver flipping me off as I got to my vehicle, as if I was the idiot who had done something wrong.

SHEESH! Some people ....
