Of course, placing a decent-sized wood screw behind a tire while I tie my shoe isn't f*cking with another man's car. It's just conveniently dropping something. If they drive over it and get a flat, well, consider it writing a check to Karma.
No no no... you slice off the valve stem. Much worse.

I agree with GTOlover, ouch he's only a kid for God's sake!! Both the mother and child must of been scared ****less at the look of anger on you face and that's why she didn't say anything.

It was nice to see that you really won't go out and be destructive to her car in the future if you ever see her again. You must have anger issues you should address. Anger Management courses are given locally everywhere, you should look into it before you do loose it someday

The brat kid should be taught by his rude mother how to properly open a car door. I park as far away from the clutter of cars in the parking lot as i can. I have had more then a few of my cars over the yrs dinged in parking lots.

She looked at me as if this was the least important thing in the history of man kind and opened the door again to indicate the point of impact rather than take the energy to bend down and see what happened. I found two chips, not too small but through to the metal. After inspecting it, I stood up and said, "Don't worry about it. But tell him to be more careful next time." She said not one word to me this whole time. Not a sorry, not a 'you apologize to that man', NOTHING. I honestly think if I hadn't gotten out and said anything when I did, she would have just driven off.

She better hope I don't see her car again because if and when I do, I will key it all the way around. I might even kick a door in or break off a mirror.
Tyhen someone will come here and say tehy hate you.You might even find that the police want you.

Yep, the door-ding lady was rude. Incosiderate, check. Thanks rosecitywanderer for posting and retracting your "keying" comment. We all have those thoughts and of course, and thankfully, rarely if ever act on them.

To those recommending calling police and getting a lawyer? Seriously? Really? Glad to see you're using them for real problems. When you do have a real problem what do you turn to...nukes?

That happened to me at the gym. I was sitting in my car, a guy pulled in next to me, opened his door (which actually hit my car hard enough to make it shake a little)...he kept on doing whatever he was doing. I rolled down my window and was like, "Are you serious?!!" He was like, "You should chill out. It's not that bad." And then walked off.

People are a-holes. I just love how many people tell you that you should 'chill out' when you point out how they are behaving badly. Yeah, try to make me feel 'uncool' when you are an inconsiderate jerk. What great parents these people must have had.

I totally understand your anger. I hate ill mannered, rude people too. I am glad you were able to keep in control.

Definitely don't do anything to other people's cars. Don't lower yourself to their level.

Hi there,
I know that your are pretty ticked off and I don't blame you but man please don't do anything rash like that. For me I vent to my best friend about anything that bothers me. Vent about it to someone you are close to, blog about it or even vent to us but please do not key her car or any of that sort, you could get into a lot of trouble plus that is really wrong. and I hate to see the wicked ways of one get you so fired up that you will do something horrible back to her and then you get in bad trouble.
The only thing I think that you could do at this point is feel sorry for that person and her horrible attitude. And hope that she gets a better attitude and treats the next person with a bit more respect. Hang in there.
