Crazy Russkis: I guess they invented "adapt, improvise overcome" ... and they don't take any shit from anyone. Their defensive spirit is well fired with generous doses of vodka.
I know of a guy that had some clown park blocking the road into his ranch. He walked his excavator down, reached over the gate and smashed the offending vehicle flat as a pancake.
Our small town hosts a popular 4th of July spectacle. Tourists would park wherever they could, including not just blocking driveways but IN driveways. It was something of a sport to find new ways to mess with them. Putting two cars fore and aft bumper to bumper was amateur, Calling a tow company was laughable. Relocating the car around the corner worked well. For those offenders parked on private property, we'd just block them in and charge a parking fee of $50. That or charge with trespass, their choice. Yes, no parking signs were posted.
The garage sale clique it the pitts-they show up starting at 7am and park wherever they fucking well want-3 feet from the curb, blocking your driveway, wherever-gotta get to the sale so we don't miss all the bargains.
same here. town of 25,000 swells to 250,000 for one week. 225,000 entitled tourists. one year a heavy equipment contractor blocked off both ends of his street with big loud yellow things. the people on the block knew who to ask to move the big loud yellow things. tourists did not.
I own a home on a small lot. I wanted a home with a driveway. Some of my neighbors didn't see it that way, and didn't opt for one. But I kept hearing "I need to use the driveway, I don't have one." It was like they had a right to it. Some have demanded I move a car so they can use it. I once said, "I don't have a wife, so can I just use yours?"
I have been here for 36 years & finally, 2 snows ago, one of those that walks up my drive to their back yard helped shovel. Starker
Russians getting it done.
ReplyDeleteCity folks problems. I'll never understand living like that.
ReplyDeleteHe did the right thing. I'd a been tempted too pull it into the middle of the road and leave it.

ReplyDeleteLove it. And the asshole who’s car is now in the roadway will be pissed. Like he or she did nothing wrong.
ReplyDeleteBeen there, done that. Except the car had to be taken away on a flatbed.

DeleteI usually just get the valve core tool out of the glovebox.

DeleteNow that he's parked, he's calling a tow truck to close the deal.

I see he's played this game before.
ReplyDeleteNot his first rodeo, for sure.
DeleteBeen there, done that. I was in northern Afghanistan and some jack wad blocked my driveway. We hooked him up and pulled him a half mile down the road.
