I approve. Through I probably would have moved when she asked, and then the second time maybe not. She should try a similar tactic with whomever is parking in her spot.

Sucks when it happens, but revenge isn't the answer.

Haha yeah. And now I'm gonna go get drunk and laugh about it with my friends.

To elaborate, she was parking in my spot for the entire first month I had my apartment. Once I got a parking ticket for parking in her spot while she was in mine I started getting a little irritated.

Happy Birthday, @SuperBastard

Eat a lot of cake, not cock.

Agreed. It was a huge dick move not to move your car when she asked, imo, but I wasn't in your shoes. Maybe she'd been parking in your space for months. Maybe you'd tried everything else you knew to get the point across to her to stop parking in your damned space. Whatever. Moral of the story is, she made her problems your problem, and you made your problem her boss's problem, who probably made it her problem in return. Way to go @SuperBastard -- and happy birthday.

Just stop talking to me. You're worthless. Literally. And yes you only contribute antagonism and you're not "calling me out on my bullshit". You're just trying to start shit. And I'm not the only person you've done this with.

Wow, way to project there buddy. I've read all your posts, they contribute nothing to the topic and are wrong all the time. Lengthy paragraphs and big words don't make you appear any smarter. You might as well just say penis or something like some others here.

I'd say you did the exact right thing and I'm proud of you.
revenge is the correct policy? for shame...

being nice might not have worked in this instance, but it doesnt change the fact that punishment isnt the best solution. to this or anything else on earth..

i dont even have a car or a driver's license or job to go to, so though your excuse may have worked for them, it wont on me..

I don't think of what he did as revenge so much as I think of it as a bit of tough love. Sometimes the best way to show someone how they are wrong is to let them see exactly what the receiving end is like. One doesn't need anger or malice to enact this. Sometimes when a person sees what it's like in another's shoes, so to speak, they realize how wrong they were and correct their actions in the future.

Regardless if he had "revenge" intent or not, this same effect plays out nicely here and I bet she doesn't do that anymore or at least thinks twice before doing it.

Sometimes you must act out to accomplish a goal. Sometimes being nice isn't the best way to accomplish a goal.

You can let people walk all over you or you can choose when and where is appropriate to stand your ground. He stood his ground. Nothing wrong with that.

that wasnt the case though according to what i read..

Slightly different, yes, but a similar kind of inconvenience. She was perfectly fine with rudely inconveniencing people, thinking nothing of the effects of her actions. When inconvenienced herself, perhaps she rethinks her actions.

She was not harmed. Nor was her property harmed. She was merely inconvenienced.

It's not like he damaged her car or something, which would have been over the line.

I do wonder if the same bandwagon would show up in this thread if the tenant who keeps stealing your parking space was a dude.

But, then again, could be the same or similar-- the set of reactions in this hypothetical situation. Does make 'ya wonder, doesn't it?

Could apologize. The itch was scratched-- sometimes scratching itches cause wounds.
Metaphors aside, never really hurts to say sorry. Who knows?

Then again, it could result in you getting stepped on some more.

Happy Birthday.
Don't forget that it's almost the end of March in a couple weeks.

I think the general tendency is to assume other NGers make poor decisions. As for why that is I can't really say.

Apology doesn't seem like the right choice. It doesn't appear that she's suffered any lasting consequences, so by not calling the cops and getting her car towed like my landlord promised her would happen I think I actually did her a favor, even if I was a dick about it.

Happy Birthday.

Thanks man.

Beta would have been saying "y-yes sorry I parked in your way" and moving immediately, finding her car in my spot when I got back from classes, and saying nothing about it again. It was maybe kind of juvenile to tell this story on the INTERNET, but you ever just get steamed about something and need an outlet?

My weekend was awesome though.
