hate mail.
ahhh. hate mail. you gotta love it. i have been collecting it since the site's inception, and i figured it was time for everyone else to laugh along with me. my favorites include "...i'm taking this to city hall..."; "...you sad little person..."; and people in other states that blame me for putting notices on their cars--yes, i drive around the country placing these on autos. enjoy.

yo-
whoever gave me my notice didn't even check a box...probably because
the 3 feet in front of my car before the driveway was so inconsequential
that it would have made the writer look like the asshole. It made no
difference in space at all. Looks like the writer was just being a bitch
cuz he/she couldn't find a spot.
Love the idea of the notice but if you don't execute properly, then
you're just ranting, off-base bitches.
do better!

I would like to start by saying this person must have 2 assholes for
eyes. He states that I was taking up 2 spots. I was only in one spot.
I was close to his spot as the vehicle on my left was actually in my
spot. You must be a total moron and an unbelievable stupid person. The
note you left tells me you need to brush up on your penmanship. Also
your grammar leaves a lot to be desired. If you feel the need to tell
me I park like an asshole why didn't you wait for me and say it to my
face. This tells me you are a coward. By the way if I were in 2 spots
why didn't you call the police, a summons can be given out for this
offense. You asshole.

I think you should clarify that the “move up” option does
not apply to parallel parking.
If you take a moment to think about it, it should be apparent that the
space in front or in back of a car which is parallel parked may have
nothing to do with how the owner of that car parked.
As cars move over time, the space in front and in back of a stationary
car changes.
If you have a user of your site who has nothing better to do than sit
and watch cars as they parallel park on a street to see how these patterns
develop, I’m sorry that this is the most meaningful thing they
have to do with their lives. Perhaps they could take some of their extra
time and energy and go out and help some fellow human beings (ditto
to those who used the precious moments of their lives to create this
site in the first place!).
Perhaps you should focus more discouraging people who are actually guilty
of something like parking carelessly and denting the fenders of cars
in front and back of them or vandalizing cars. Also consider discouraging
those who speed on residential streets where families and elderly people
live BEFORE they kill or injure something, reckless drivers, drunk and
otherwise under the influence drivers or those people who keep their
windows open while listening their "music" played way too
loud so we are all subject to it.
I would suggest that you use your website for a socially redeemable
purpose. The title is offensive.

You guys have no place doing this. I was doing community service judging
the science fair in monterey county, and received one of you're notices
and it really offended me. I can totally understand when some does an
EXCEPTIONALLY POOR job parking that you give them a notice, but this
is just a little over the top.
