Last summer, i went to park at a mall, and there was a back section with 2-3 empty rows of about 10-15 empty parking spots each row, im like awsome... so i park in the middle of it all, completely secluded from the other cars.

I come back an hour later, tell me how i find one person parked right beside me, and all the other 30-40 parking spots empty. this guy went out of his way to park beside me... like wtf. i wanted to set his car on fire, annoyed me more than i thought it would lol but oh well.

This is a good representation of what it looked like

I have had the exact same arsonist reaction when that happens. Makes me wish I had a truck with a winch so I could drag their to a different part of the lot - and then set it on fire.

38% of cars get dinged in their life. IIRC big retail parking lots are like 2x more dangerous than parking garages, street parking, etc. I mainly park by expensive cars or just walk further. I absolutely avoid parking by trucks and SUV/kidmobiles at any cost.
