In virtually every neighborhood, there is an entitled dude who loves to stir up a fuss about parking rules. It's as if this person is genetically copied and planted into every suburb, apartment complex, and town. Typically, there are ways to avoid the wrath of this individual, but once they start coming after you, you have no other choice but to defend yourself.

The funny thing about these rule followers is that once a difficult policy negatively affects them, they often start understanding where other people were coming from the whole time. However, once they learn the act of empathy, it's often too late. In this instance, we have a guy who got in trouble for parking his scooter within the legal boundaries, and yet, a neighbor still felt the need to create drama out of it. Well, let's just say that his temper tantrum backfired. Sorry to this man!

  • It's quite clear to me, at least, that entitled Kevin in this story simply had it out for scooters. Even though he had no evidence that the author violated any parking rules, he still went out of his way to write the most passive-aggressive note. Even the author admitted that the note was so petty, he almost gained respect for the guy. Still, that didn't stop the scooter driver from ensuring that his entitled neighbor would have his parking privileges impacted as well.

    before you are sorry you ignored the NO PARKING sign and don't park here again! There are many other available spaces for you to park.
