..............Okay, time to get petty and juvenile

I park in a parking deck - space is at a premium. There's one individual who comes in early enough to get a spot on the first floor - and consistently takes up two spaces. I need ideas.

I've already thought of a syringe full of brake fluid and doing a nonchalant drive-by squirt, but I need others.

Thanks for helping me with this bad idea. I may not act on it but at least the thought of doing something will help me deal with this a-hole.

Can of yellow spray paint, paint a line where the parking line goes right down the car.

Park behind him and walk away. That should grab his attention when he can't leave early on a Friday afternoon.

Not stealthy enough, but thanks.

No can do, I'd have to park in the throughway and would get towed, but thanks for the suggestion.

call the cops, isnt that illegal?

I know it is for public parking. Private parking, i guess call the people that own the lot.

Stalk him...

Follow him home, steal his wifes car that night and use it in the morning to block him in. Double whammy if I must say so myself.

Ignore and go on with life, he will get his,

or squeeze your car in beside him, makin certain to be about one inch off his drivers door so he can't enter the car, I've done this a few times

Just ensure that you do no damage to his car in process
Crazy glue in the locks also works well.
Leave naked bum prints on his hood.
Inflated condoms tied to his antenna.
Ink on his wiper blades.

Or trade in car for monster truck and park on top of his car, making sure that you monster truck remains within the lines set out by the parking authority.

Or report him to the parking authority

Wipe vasaline on his door handle and then unwrap a condom and leave it on the ground by his door with a note that says people who cant park really turn you on.

Yeah, I've done that one too, with other people. I'm driving my other car, which is pretty beat up, so it doesn't matter to me one bit.

About the other suggestions, I have to say they're quite inventive and some are tried and true, like de-airing the tires. The key here is stealth and quickness, I have to hit and run, so to speak. There will be no time for standing around the car and doing anything, that's why I thought up the brake fluid drive-by thing. Even if there are security cameras (and I know of only one, key phrase KNOW OF) there's no way they'll pick up on a little squirt of clear liquid from a passing car when the driver is looking straight ahead and there's a little syringe under the left arm doing it's thing. And you gear heads know what brake fluid will do to a car's finish.

Thanks again for your suggestions, keep them coming.

One problem with the brake fluid idea is that you've now entered Richard Nixon territory with this thread. If you're going to do anything even borderline illegal (and honestly, I don't think you would, even with the problem bugging you so much), it's best not to leave a record of it on computers across the world.

6 points for the vent though.

Of course I wouldn't do anything illegal, that's a given. But if you squeal I'll send MadDoc after you, with his big, elephant penis-shaped enema device that he got from nepenthe.

Buy a roll of contact paper - shelf paper. Precut a piece roughly the size of his windshield. Annotate appropriately. Apply to windshield.

Or, on the rear window. Attach a felt pen with a string so that others can add their own comments.

We're talking hours to remove, folks.

There was an urban legend many years ago that Ford's police in Dearborn had parking violation notices that were applied that way. Never actually saw one.

get tire deflaters, drop a folder of papers, pick them up and stab teh tires with the deflater pins, no real damage but time. also you all work together? I would talk to management about posting a letter to all employees about so and so not being considerate to others, if you see him let him know thats not right, blah blah blah.

At my place you do that even 60 year old white folks turn ghetto and beat ur ass down, dont **** with our parking! lol

Write an anonymous note, and put it on his windshield.

"To the driver of this vehicle,

Maybe you should use only one parking slot to avoid damage to your car. I watched someone try to park adjacent to yours to try to take some of the space and he came awfully close to side-swiping your car.

I thought I should tell you he was very irate when he jumped out of his car and took your license plate number down. I don't know if he was plotting revenge or what.

Just wanted to let you know."

Just go up to him or his door and ask him why he cant park correctly. Then if hes an ass you be an ass also.

IF that doesn't work then how about a chunk of spark plug insulator drive by toss at the windshield.
