When someone parks like a complete asshole with a spot open on their driver’s side, I park like an asshole right up next to them so they have to get in another way. This teaches them not to park like an asshole so they don’t bother others.

I guess I do the opposite, I rarely see cars that are parked badly, So I'm not worried about that, but when I see a spot open next to a driver's side of a car, I purposely don't park there because I want to leave that space open for their comfort.

Is the opposite specifically giving asshole the space or specifically giving good drivers the space? Or is it giving absolutely everyone space and not caring how badly they park?

What I mean is this, when I see an available parking spot but it's right next to a driver's side door of another car, I leave that spot alone and find another spot.

I already told you I don't encounter "asshole" parkers very much. And if I do, I park extremely far away from them and don't let it bother me.

Gotcha. Thanks!

You assume they are an asshole when they could just be having a bad day, a lot on their mind, and were focused on something else more important in their life than parking straight.

And quite frankly, even if they are an asshole who the fuck are you that you have any right to "teach them a lesson."

An eye for an eye leaves the world blind.

Who the fuck are you that you have any right to teach me a lesson?

What you're teaching them is that everyone's an asshole.
