Parking Lot Jagoffs

Another Plethora of #PeterParker Jagoff Parkers

Peter Piper Picked a Peck of “Peter Parkers” for today.  And you don’t have to sit them on your window sill with your TA-mate-AHS to ripen through the night!!   They are ripe and ready.  The inbox, Twitter feedFacebook and feeds have been full of  ’em!  So let’s get at it cuz, as my dad would say, “Christmas is coming!”

The compact car occupying two Compact Car Spaces comes all the way from Hawaii!!  Clearly this driver has special awareness challenges.  We heard this person sometimes is caught standing half in and half outside the shower at home.  And all of this talk about COMPACTS, reminds us of a cool COMPACT joke..

Two blondes are walking down the street. One notices a compact on the sidewalk and leans down to pick it up. She opens it, looks in the mirror and says, “Hmm, this person looks familiar.” The second blonde says, “Here, let me see!” So the first blonde hands her the compact. The second one looks in the mirror and says, “You dummy, it’s me!”

Then we have this one….

Our SJU, Special Jagoff Unit, was on this and found out that this was an airplane pilot’s car.  He’s used to running the nose up the center line.  We also found out that he was assisted with parking his car here by a guy in an orange vest, headphones and two real-long orange flashlights.  Supposedly one of those cool little baggage-hauling vehicles came out too to help load the groceries.

But WAIT….we got us a curb-hugger in Squirrel Hill.  At first we thought it was sad that someone didn’t even feel a huge bump as they parked.

But then our JSGU investigated this one too!  It turns out that this car is a stick shift with a bad battery and alternator.  So it needs to get a run down a slope and popped into gear to get started.   Rolling off a curb is a good start.  Therefore, after parking and turning the ignition off, the owner apparently gets out of his car, walks around the back and picks the back of the car up, with one hand, and PURPOSELY places the car on to the curb.  (For Realz! )

And then look at this…

We didn’t even have to write anything for this one.  See the email that came with it:

This woman always parks in some dumb way in our complex. Judging by the fact that the entire passenger side of the truck is damaged, I think it is safe to assume she doesn’t know how to drive a truck. If you cannot drive a truck, do not buy a truck! That’s what I always say. Apparently she cannot be bothered to line up with the truck next to her, so people are forced to walk in the mud or brush against her dirty truck.

Oh, and here’s the other thing… the spot on the other side is the Handicap parking spot. Good luck getting through here, disabled senior citizens.

A Bike Parking Jagoff! #PeterParkers Get Better and Better!!!

Ok….. had a post about Girl Scout Thin Mints ready to go for today and then BOOM….Breaking Jagoff News from the Settlers Ridge area of town!  HOLD THE CATHOLIC SCHOOL MIMEOGRAPH MACHINE!!!!

Now, we have posted tons of Parking Jagoffs  here (we call these people “Peter Parkers) but this one is cutting edge jagoffery!!

Surely you have this experience in your parking career…you scurry around a busy lot, you see what looks to be an open spot in the distance, you speed like a “bat outta hell,” to get to that open spot annnnnnnnnnd…. there’s some dinky little car in the spot that you couldn’t see until you turned into the spot at 40mph.  Something that looks like a roller skate with a gas tank.  AHHHH fooled! So you angrily back out and look for another spot.

So the bicycle in the photo above didn’t necessarily take the last spot but…. the fact is ….it TOOK A SPOT!!!

Here is the tweet that came with the photo,

Leaving your bike in a parking spot – Is this a 3rd parking jagoff for the day?

So……  either a cycler plopped their bike there OR someone’s minivan got home with a load of Settlers Ridge Giant Eagle groceries and one less bike hanging on the family bike rack.   Whom on the family of stick figures, decaled on the back window of the minivan, will be without their bicycle???

Well, we sincerely doubt the latter scenario cuz, how in the world would a bike INADVERTENTLY fall off of a bike rack of a moving vehicle and be perfectly centered between the painted lines?

Hey Bike-Plops (how about THAT one?), you don’t need to plop your bike in that spot cuz you feel inadequate for riding your bike to the store… it’s the trendy thing to do.  Don’t worry, someday you’ll have a big-boy vehicle and be allowed to park in the big-boy spots.  Maybe some day you’ll even be able to wear big-boy UNDIES too!!

But for now, can ya please use the racks designated for bicycles..otherwise cleverly known as BIKE PARKING RACKS?

The only GOOD news about your bike parking, with the horrible parking we have seen from Pittsburghers, the fact that your bike is in between the two white lines, probably means not a soul, not even a granny that sits on 2 phone books to be able to see THROUGH the steering wheel, will run over your bike, Ya Jagoff!

 

Thanks to @Will Reynolds Young for being our Honorary Jagoff Catcher today.

Will was on FIRE this day… submitted a total of 3 Parking Jagoff posts within 12 hours!!

Parking Jagoffs From Perth to Pittsburgh!

 

While the “Head-up-your-arse“ parking issues continue here in Pittsburgh, it is great to know that we are not alone!!  We call these people “Peter Parkers.

The photo at the very top comes to us aaaaaaaaaall the way from Perth, Australia.. via a Perth-based-Pittsburgh-fan.  And the second photo comes from the Cranberry area, which takes about as long to get to as Perth, from Downtown Pittsburgh, during the evening rush hour and more than 14-19 snowflakes fall on Interstate 279.

So in the top photo, our Aussie friend seems to have found a person that is under the impression that their TRUCK is a SMALL CAR!  Since it was not apparent to this driver that the wall clearly “Small Cars Only,” we chose to highlight it with our Jagoff-estrator technology. Gawd knows, those dark letters on a light wall are pretty hard to see.

We think this driver needs to get an appointment with our favorite optometrist, Dr. I. Lidd, for one of those tests on the machine they put up against your face then mess with your mind by sliding all the lenses in front of your eyes at a rapid fire pace and asking, “Which way is better? This way? Or THIS way? Number 1 or Number 2?

Then the Cranberry Character…. just in case the issue is as unclear to YOU as it was to this driver.. we pointed out his “Trifecta of Jagoffery,” once again, with the Jagoff-estrator.

Hey Mr. Down-unda, otherwise known as Mr. I-don’t-really-Four-wheel-As-a-matter-of-fact-I-hate-it-when-my-shiny-truck-even-gets-a-little-bit-dirty-But-I-bought-it-to-overcompensate-for-OTHER-small-things-in-my-life, no fair considering your kids’ Hot Wheels toy cars, that are jammed underneath your seat, as a reason to park in that spot, Ya Wanker!!! (Australian term = to Jagoff!)

And Cranberry Character, those lines underneath your car are supposed to be a point of reference… and we don’t mean as a CENTERING LINE like 747!

Put your car in ONE SPACE unless your a stepladder sales rep and had to leave room for unloading your 10, 12 and 18 foot step ladder samples, Ya Jagoff!!! (Pittsburgh term  = to Jagoff)
