      I know it’s probably wrong to laugh but I had to! I hate when people do that! Don’t they notice when they get out of their cars and if they do it on purpose, shame on them!

      HA! Awesome pic! I was at the hospital the other day taking Little One in for a follow up post surgery and someone parked like that!!! I was shocked! At the hospital?! It totally screwed up everyone else’s parking jobs! I ended up having to park on the street. No fun!

      I wonder if I could take that picture and have it put on post-its? I’d be too chicken to actually do the chalk…but slapping a post-it on a car? Not a problem!

      Thanks – this totally made my day!

      Wow.
      I saw a guy park like that during Canada Day celebrations.
      Not cool.

      Wow, that took some guts to do! Bravo to the one with the chalk!

      LOL! This is so funny! Thanks for hosting and enjoy the rest of your Wednesday. I am now a Follower of your Blog.

      Okay, Yes, I will remember to have chalk in my car for the next time I see this. I know right were it will be too (at my church) hahahahahahaha. Thanks for hosting!

      I hope the driver actually saw the note 😉 Great job. People like that totally deserve it.

      Clever chalk idea! The nerve of some people amazes me – I’d be so embarrassed to park my car in two spaces. :p
