I’m mad. At the apartment in which I reside, there is a little POS Saturn Ion. Now, I hate Ions with a passion as it is, but this one took it one step too far. In front of our building is a handicap parking space. Law states (somewhere) that these spots are to be in front of every building and in the closest space to the door. Johnny Law also states that in order to park in these designated spaces you need to have an annoying little sticker in the window, or a license plate with the wheel chair mascot on it. Let me start by saying the Ion does not possess either of these. The Ion, a rather insignificant creature, parks here every day. I am not handicap. I don’t carry the mascot on my car, therefore I respect others who may need to park next to the door to avoid getting killed by walking inside. I respect the fact that at some point Johnny Law painted a big wheel chair man on the parking lot ground and therefore designated this space for someone who may need to be assisted into the building. This Ion has no respect. Day in and day out the poorly build vehicle it is parks in this spot. I am putting a stop to that. I will disrespect that vehicle the same way it has disrespected me. I will place a note on the window of the car, only because I get angry when people do that to me. It reads: “Dear Ion Owner, Please display a HANDICAP sticker in your window or be TOWED. This not only ILLEGAL but unfair to our HANDICAPPED visitors. Thank You!” /rant Does this annoy you like it does me? How would you handle this situation? Write a five to eight sentence paragraph explaining your reaction to my reaction. ---

This not only ILLEGAL but unfair to our HANDICAP visitors. Thank You!” I believe that last “HANDICAP” should be “HANDICAPPED.” (just a little editing, nothing ruins a complaint note more than them laughing at grammar and forgetting the message.) As far as the rest…yeah that stuff really pisses me off at times, but if there were no handicapped spots some other asshole would have the spot before me anyway…otherwise I would always have the spot NEXT TO the handicapped spot (or whatever other spot is “next closest.”) ---

Maybe the owner parked there because you have to be mentally handicapped to own an Ion. ---

However, If the owner had trouble getting around I wouldn’t be so quick to judge or to be as harsh as I plan on being. ---

My biggest problem is with the rednecks at Wal_Wart. Every single time I goto Wal_Mart, I see some redneck dude in a POS truck, rusted apart, half falling down, looking drunk parking in a big blue space. ---

Just call the cops. They’ll tow the car and then everything will be cool, unless the person is truely handicapped then you just made their life that much worse. ---
