Ok, just wanted to get your opinion on this.
So, my mother has been round to visit me, and she drives a big stupid 4x4 and she decided to double park badly and block somebody from getting into their drive. Now this is of course wrong, the lady 2 doors down decided that in order to make her point she would not park a few meters up the road she would instead block my mothers big stupid 4x4 in. Now when she went out to go home (had only been here 15 or 20 mins) she finds that its blocked in with no way to come out. I hear some shouting so step outside to see my neighbor ranting about how infuriated she is, now ok fair enough but 2 wrongs don't make a right and she is being childish in my view. So My mother apologises and asks her politely to remove the car.
She refuses and says she is busy and that because she has been inconvenienced she has decided to inconvenience my mum. So I step in and tell her she is being pathetic and if she doesn't move it I will ring the police and have them ticket her for refusing to remove it. She tells me to go ahead and do it and heads back inside.
So, one phone call later and the police are on their way. She has obviously seen me read them her plate and after a couple more minutes comes out and shifts the car.
Now, in my view she was being very childish, and while I understand why she was irritated I just do not find that a very rational way to behave. Fair enough step outside and vent about it but to go and do something like that is just crazy imho. The stupid thing is we are not talking about her having to hike up a mountain from the possible places she could have parked the car, we are talking 20 meters to her door. I used to live in a terraced street full of flats and sometimes I would have to park almost the next street over and would have to walk a good couple of hundred meters to my door. i never felt the need to shout at anybody no matter how foul a mood I was in. What is it about middle aged women that makes some of them such gimps?
