Question Would you use these?

Found this funny and thought about how many times I would have liked to left something like this: KindOfRude.com applies hotel door technology to parking lot etiquette

Hell yes! Happened to me Saturday night. Had a big SUV hugging the line next to my driver's side door, I could barely get in. Too expensive for what it is though, I'd rather make my own.

I solve that problem by not parking within 50 feet of anyone, my cars are those lonely ones you see parked out in the wastelands at Walmart. The only way to keep them "dingless" is to get as far away as possible from the unwashed masses, those tags are interesting but they'll lead to a vandalized car or punch in the nose.

Very hard to tear.

I just don't understand how it can be so difficult. They go to the trouble of painting the lines on the pavement for you. All you have to do is hit the middle of the spot (I'll see that again...).

Lazy people park as close to the store door as they can get.
If they're lazy they don't care about their own car nevermind yours.

I'm parked in the far wastelands 50 feet or more from 843de

Yes! I would so use some of these. And for S&G's I would do it to some police cruisers.

I just took a look at KindOfRude.com's door hanger.
>a buck a whack seems expensive for something the rude pr!ck will just drop on the ground a drive away.

My solution (if I felt compelled to teach lessons) would be large blank stickers that I could write on.
Maybe 6" diameter or bigger.
Write I PARK LIKE AN *******! or something like that in black Sharpie and stick it on the driver's side windshield.

Fun for family & friends!

OK Mowgli, its 805 miles from Kannapolis to Clinton, allow another four feet for adequate door clearance when opened....and I think we're both safe from giving each other door dings.

Now its just the rest of America we need to worry about.
