      I mean there should be consequences for being an asshole and the fact that assholes very rarely receive said consequences is why when they do it’s usually brutal.

      I’d definitely have scratched the paint on the passenger side and probably spit on the windshield.

      Don’t be an asshole and you won’t have to worry about the consequences of being an asshole 🤷

        Better to draw a giant dick on the windshield in lipstick or eyeliner. No permanent damage, the point gets across, and it’s a bitch to get off properly. Never did it myself but I watched an adult woman do it (as a child) and it struck me as such a clever way to get back at an asshole without being a bigger asshole. (Full disclosure, she wrote “bitch” in huge letters across the windshield, but I think drawing a dick is funnier)

            It’s funny, pretty simple rule. Yet people defending assholes in here…How about just don’t be an asshole and maybe think of anything other than yourself. Hard concept to grasp for some ppl

              Do you think the pickup truck driver should be able to park like he did in the picture without any consequences?

                Leave a note, embarrass them on socials, call parking enforcement. Consequences aren’t for you or I to give, it literally only leads to bad shit happening. You don’t know if this is a single mom who borrowed a truck, an elderly person who shouldn’t be driving, or maybe something like a tweaker who did something like this because they’re fucking insane and want an excuse to attack somebody.

                  1. The OP of that reddit post said it was deliberate.

                  2. I’m asking that other guy something. I’m not soliciting other people’s opinions.

            That is so not true. Do you really never see someone being an asshole randomly?

              Randomly? You mean someone doing something with no consideration for anyone but themselves? That sounds exactly like the situation that calls for someone reminding that person that their actions impact others and that they’re responsible for that impact.

            Go outside lol. That’s not how life works, you gotta be the bigger the person or it only leads to negative consequences.

              No, people like you enabling assholes by discouraging others from punishing them is what leads to negative consequences.

              You could literally just hide cameras and film the driver if they retaliate against you and have them jailed.

              People like you ruin life for the rest of us. Shut the fuck up and stop wasting our oxygen.

                And again, what gives you the absolute right to be the decider of consequences? Do you not see how that leads to problems? I have to drive for 6 hours straight in a small city, if I decided to give people consequences literally the only thing that would happen is I’d look like an asshole. And btw, if you live in the states, you’re a fucking idiot if you don’t think this could easily lead to the person “giving consequences” getting shot.

                  I don’t, truth and justice does. Getting angry at me because you don’t want to hear the truth won’t make the truth go away. And you may reject justice, but it’s still there all the same, and for rejecting it to get what you want, you will always be a morally bankrupt, immature piece of shit.

                  Want that opinion of you to change? Then change your perspective.
