Parking garage was practically full and that bonehead (👍) is so special he decided to take up two spots.
It’s all about him!Brian, I am reminded of how a guy that I knew in the early 1970's handled seeing people taking up two parking spaces. I saw him do this stunt numerous times in restaurant and mall parking lots. He was a work colleague and several of us would meet for lunch or happy hour each driving our own cars.
He drove an AMC turquoise Gremlin. He would park his car in the area on drivers side of the offending car just as close as possible, sometimes so close to the drivers door to make it difficult to open the door. The Gremlin was a perfect car to perform this idiotic stunt because of this blunt rectangle shape.
It must be a common thing associated with the Gremlin as I found quite a few pics showing a Gremlin parked sideways.
I think the guy I knew had a similar problem to your description "... bonehead (👍) is so special he decided to take up two spots and It's all about him!". He didn't recognize he suffered from the same delusion.

So during covid when the world was full of inept delivery drivers, I put arrows with my house number out on the street, on a tree going up my driveway to indicate a right turn and another on my garage pointing to the house. We've been having strong spring winds that must have torn the garage arrow off one of the nails making it swing and point down.

Funny story about epilepsy.....I used to have grand mal seizures back when I was a young racer, early 90's. I could control them down to petit mals with the two medications I took.
I'm in practice at PIR in Portland OR turning some pretty fast lap times with my best friend/crew chief on pre-grid timing me. Shaving off a tenth of a second per lap here and there is good work. I must have had a wild hair up my a$$ because I shaved off a full two seconds one lap.
Well, the intense focus must've done its work because I went into a petit mal going down the back straight. If anyone has experienced petit mal seizures, you still have your faculties, just not all of them.
So I slowed to the outside, signaled and exited the track and parked it on pre-grid next to my crew chief. He looks at me and says, what's up?? I told him, I'm seizing....He steps back, looks that bike and says, The bike sounds okay to me!?!, I laughed and said No man, I'M seizing....since he was my best friend, he knew and quickly hit the kill switch, helped me off the bike and we sat against the rail and had a good laugh at what had just taken place.
I've been seizure free by the way since 2000, no meds.Marantz AV10-Emotiva ERC3-Denafrips Venus-Panasonic UB9000-AudioQuest Power Quest 707-Emotiva DR3, DR2, XPA2, XPA6-Focal Kanta No2, Sopra Center-PolkAudio RTiA9, RTiA3, LSiM 702F/X-Epik Empire-11.2 -

I remember pulling into dmv years ago for a vehicle inspection on my 74 Ford Comet. I stepped on the floor dimmer switch while waiting and it went through the rusty floorboard. My instant fix was to crush an empty soda can and slip it under the dimmer. It got me though inspection. Gotta do what you gotta do sometimes to keep the wheels turning. -

That would have been a Mercury Comet.
The rust didn't care though😉
I owned two of those bad boys. The first was my first car.

Correct; it was a Mercury and it was a rust bucket. One of my least memorable cars. It wasn't pretty but it did get me to work and back for a couple months -

Astounding!
A Fifth of American Adults Can’t Read
48 million adults in the U.S. read at or below the third-grade level. Some educators think it’s not possible to teach them. They’re wrong.

This issue has so many layers to it, none of which will be solved by another “government program”, or “more government funding”.
We are now reaping the fruits of two generations of kids raised in a high percentage of single-parent households. The bulk of these kids were raised by TV, and even worse now, the internet. Further, failing schools have responded by lowering their standards (relax, I’m not blaming all teachers - just the unions and school boards). And to make matters even worse, the schools celebrate mediocrity, for fear of “hurting the children’s feelings” by telling them they are failing.
English class 40-50 years ago was about nouns & verbs, sentence structure, paragraph breaks, punctuation and just plain COMMUNICATION via the English language. Now kids watch the Romeo & Juliet movie, sit while the teacher reads to them, etc.
In short, it’s not about money - it’s about standards, parental involvement and the basics.“Human beings are born with different capacities. If they are free, they are not equal. And if they are equal, they are not free.”
