    Whether it's at work or at home, do you get cranky when someone else has taken your normal spot?

    Where I'm from, this is actually a really big deal, especially in the winter.

    When I was a wee lad, we used to use chairs or traffic cones to save the spots in front of the house. Then, about 15 years ago, they made that practice illegal.

    However, in winter, when people shovel out their spot, they'll put chairs or something in the spot to keep them, which I'm fine w/. However, others complain about that, as it's a public street. But I say if you do the work, you can keep the spot.

    No but I have a driveway so

    I do get angry when sharky's dad parks on the lawn because I mean really now. We can fit like 8 cars on our driveway if you include the carport, there is ample space

    Yes. I try to park in the same spot all of the time. If you know I park there everyday and park there anyways when there is plenty of open space around, I will be a grumpy panda.

    During the Summer, the street in front of our door gets packed with people going to the beach, making it hard to find a spot close. The street(s) we have parking passes for then also get crowded and a lot of times, we'll wind up parking several blocks away.

    Yeah but It's all good. I just spray paint "In his house at R'lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming" in big bold letters on their windshield.

    Yes, I get cranky when someone else parks in front of my house -- taking my parking spot and taking up TWO parking spots in the process because they park in the middle like an asshole.

    We have more cars at my house currently than room for them. The house next to us was vacant, so it wasn't a problem because we could just park in front of their house and in that driveway for a while. Then the house finally got put on the market, so the driveway was out. Now it's bought and the front of that house is out. I'm really a bit concerned because the next day I go into work, I'll literally have nowhere to park when I get home. We have no neighbors that won't get mad if I park in front of their house.

    Edit: I do get a little cranky if I ever establish a "spot" and someone take it though. Parking isn't a problem because I never really establish a spot, but if a general area is full of cars at work, I end up not happy.

    There isn't designated parking where I work, we all park in the streets outside.

    I get mad when people are in spaces that make it hard for me to park. Stupid parkers.

    I don't have my own parking spot, but if I had one, I would key the smurf out of anyone who parked there.
