Vanity rant/question
4/16/2011 | me

Posted on 04/17/2011 7:27:34 PM PDT by surroundedbyblue

I went to breakfast this morning at Eat 'N Park in PIttsburgh. When I pulled into the parking lot, the spaces next to the handicapped spots were open so I thought, "Sweet! I"m gonna get a rock star parking spot" but as I pulled in, I noticed a sign posted in this spot that said "Reserved for Those Driving Hybrid Vehicles". I was PISSED! Has anyone else noticed this? Is it a new trend? Am I that out of the loop?

You’d like this. The owner of Yesterday’s Cafe, in Rutledge, GA, drives a Humvee. The best parking space in the lot has a sign that says, “Reserved for Humvee. All others will be crushed.”

They’re good folks, and they just may have the best fried okra in Georgia.

The one thing that really gets under my skin are the perfectly healthy people who abuse the handicapped spaces. They may have a handicapped sticker for their disabled grandmother, and rightfully so, but that does not entitle them to park there is she is not in the car.

I once asked a police officer about this and he told me that technically they are not breaking the law, because they do have the sticker, so therefore he cannot ticket them for abusing it. However he did admit, that ethically and morally they are definitely in the wrong.

I could get a handicapped sticker but I could use the exercise.

Tell them you won’t be eating there any more because you have to save up for a Prius so you can get a good parking space

I have not noticed it yet, but what I did notice on my travels was many hybreds ( not sure of spelling) going about 80 mph on the free ways

I have seen these parking spaces and have felt they need to add a few more categories. The help and fitness nuts should also have some revered parking only those should be the furthers away it is good for theirs health you know.

What is a Eat’N park for the unknowing it sound kinda like a restaurant, but would bea Park N’EAT?
