"I asked her to stop. She wouldn’t.": Entitled neighbor parks in resident's spot in front of his garage, demands he pay her $300 after she gets towed: 'She got towed again a few days later for parking in front of someone else’s garage'

It's uncanny how things in our lives go unexamined and taken for granted when they're not a problem for us. Health is one of those things you've never really appreciated your ability to swallow pain-free until you've woken up with a sore throat. You'll similarly never appreciate breathing through your nose until you find both nostrils completely blocked because of a cold.

"I thought this post was about parking and entitled neighbors," you're probably sitting there thinking to yourself. Well, hang tight, we're getting there because parking is exactly one of those things. Having a dedicated parking space, be it in front of your apartment or townhouse, or in your own driveway, is great. But you'll never truly appreciate it until you live somewhere with a denser population where every attempt to park your 4-wheeled hunk of steel becomes an ordeal—a battle—of which there are no winners and only people who are perpetually searching for parking.

A genius solution to this that some people come up with is to just park somewhere where you're not supposed to, acting like the rest of us were just too dense to realise such a solution. They'll go on doing this until they face some sort of repercussion, and then you'll never hear the end of how it wasn't really their fault.

And that's just the thing, it will never fail to surprise you what lengths people will go to and what mental hurdles they will jump over just to make things suit their needs. It's no secret that each of us is the hero of our own story, but these people take it a step further and will paint themselves as the victims, too, as if they're some trodden-down underdog with something to prove rather than a salivating opportunist. It's a mindset that sees each day as an opportunity to exploit rather than to share for equal betterment.

This neighbor will probably go about her ways until the end of time, parking in front of other people's garages and taking other people's spaces while insisting that they are the problem. Going to any lengths to justify her own self-serving actions.

We love a good story about parking drama, they're one of the hallmarks of internet discourse, and this is one for the archives.
