As a person who carries a pocket knife wherever I go, this would not hamper my ability to get in my car.

Same, but also, I don't park like a twat.

They'd probably just go into the store and ask for a pair of scissors or an exacto knife (most stores and offices have these). And then they'd probably review security footage to find out who did this to their car. Which, in all likelihood, won't get them anywhere, but still.

Or don't do that? Maybe there was somebody who parked poorly on their other side, leading to them having to park poorly in order to not hit them. Maybe some asshole nicked the disabled parks and so they park like this to have enough space to get the wheelchair out? While sometimes it may just be somebody's poor parking, there could also be other factors you can't easily see.

Yes. Not only could it very well be that someone else parked crooked and they had to park that way to fit- then the others left; but there are other things too. But you may as well just key the car or something if you do this. The zip tie will likely scratch or damage the paint when you tighten it, or when/if it rubs the handle. The car may roll or be blown by the wind and PROBABLY won’t dent the car, but may also scratch it. So why go to all the trouble? If you’re gonna scratch their car up for parking poorly then have the stones to just do it. Likely you don’t think the transgression is worth the hundreds or thousands of dollars that even minor scratches and dents can cost to repair- so then why do it at all?

But- you’re also an asshole now. Not for what you did to them. You might think that’s fine. An eye for an eye. But- and I speak from experience- what about people with small jalopy cars who aren’t scared to share what’s left of that space with the car? What about people on motorcycles who may enter a busy parking lot and see there is an open space next to that car- more than big enough to safely park their bike inside the lines next to the car, and since it’s so small it’s open and they can use it. Then the “parking lot Punisher” comes along and plops a shopping cart in in and now the one person who could actually use the space can’t- not because of bad parking McGee- but because of your thoughtless petty actions.

What punishment do YOU deserve? When you punished this person for robbing a space from someone and being thoughtless- and now you did the same? Would it surprise you to know- of the many dishonest men I’ve encountered in my life: a common sentiment of many is that when they do bad things to “innocent” people- they don’t mind because they have learned in life that there isn’t such a thing?

When your lap top gets stollen, you lose something and it isn’t returned, some kids smash your windows etc. what did you do to deserve it? What silent vigilante saw you do something that bothered them and decided they would be the deliverer of Karma unto you? And if you do shit like this- that guy is justified. You fucked with someone else and in doing became just as bad. Now someone else comes along and they pay it forward to you. A little karmic balance care of the universe or your fellow man if you prefer.

So think before you act. A bad deed ripples, even if done in the name of good. It doesn’t end in that parking lot. And someday someone will do something bad to you: and if you don’t want to have to just shrug and say “I deserve this...” if you ever think “why are people such dicks... what did I do?” Know that sometime in your life you’ve certainly done something that someone else thought was rude or cruel or wrong. That maybe it wasn’t and if they had the details they’d understand. But... did you get all the details before you did this? Are you sure? If not- well. It’s your life.
