Aurune posted:I hate other people. This is why I like having a shitbox for errands. Block 'em in. I blocked in a dotcom-rich porsche owner who took up 5 parking spots once (in a very small lot) nearly a lifetime ago. My buddy with the beat up 80s Toyota and my big old G-Body kept his car safe and secure in the parking lot overnight.

Kachunkachunk posted:Couldn't he get your cars towed, or is it a private lot? I suppose you could have called a tow truck on him as well. It was a private lot, and this was dotcom. We were both coding through the evening, roughly 2500ft from the parking lot. We didn't even leave until noon, and that was to go get food. We were technically just skirting the spaces on either side, and we may have actually kept him from being towed - if he had pissed off others in the business park for his actions, he would have been towed if enough people called the administrative office. The problem we had was that everyone who worked there was assigned a single space by the building management - god forbid you were a client who parked on the 'hidden' side of the parking lot. This guy literally pulled across several sideways and kept several of our coworkers from parking in the 'patrolled' lot (it had cameras). It was a dickhead move in response to a dickhead move. However, we did not touch, or otherwise mess with his car. We just sent him the 'Don't do this' signal. He didn't do it again.

Unfortunately, the rest of it was way too good to pass by, so now I'm part of the silver sedan brigade as well Two silver sedans as well checking in.. I like silver.

Das Volk posted:I try to avoid stereotyping drivers based on location, but Californians are downright dangerous in inclement weather. This was essentially what happened during the November vacation. I was one of about 20 who made it to Gold Run to get half a cup of instant coffee and take a leak. about 10 miles prior, a truck jacknifed and took out part of the guardrail as well as blocking the entire westbound lanes. I thought it a bit odd as no cars were entering the rest area about 5 minutes after me, and then got a frantic call from the relatives stuck behind that mess. Not sure if the trip was worse, or the vacation. I got to play taxi when their Ranger died. Twice.

So who wants to buy my '72 Kawasaki F6 125 Enduro. It worked the last time I tried.. around '97. Hoses and electrics will likely need some help by now. It's 6v, and other than a rebuilt carb and essentials, all original with a lovely rattlecan paintjob atop of the faded factory..

Terminus Est posted:Where do you live? Rural Cali-Nevada. It may be possible to meet up in Reno, but the bike itself has old rotting tires, and was rebuilt in 1992-1993, and hasn't been run since about 1997 (no gas in it, of course). Since I used it as a dirt bike, I never bothered registering it. It started fine with a kickstart, but the battery is long gone. You can email me saviggen @ the googmails, or send me a PM if you're actually interested. It's in pretty good physical condition, but it's not a 'drive off' unless you are completely insane. E: Still don't get the silver hate. I like silver.
