Mr. Landrover

There is a guy in the apartment complex that wins for total moron. He drives one of those landrover discoveries and Shawana and I have just pegged him as a bad driver. The other day he was on his cellphone and didn't even look to see my rav4 while he pulled out in front of me. And he's almost always guaranteed to park badly in any given parking space. Most of the time he is parked crooked or he parks that damned SUV so close to my rav4 that I'm wishing my weight-loss shakes were more effective.
Last night, Shawana and I got to witness yet another reason why him and his landrover should discover some driving skills. The parking in the middle of the apartment complex has a little strip of crapping grass, because it doubles as the dog walk area, with parking spacing on both sides. Each parking space has one of those concrete stops between the space and the grass. If you can imagine it, please continue reading.
So as the story goes, Shawana and I were heading to my car becuase we were heading to the airport. We were giving her friend Onekki a ride to the rental car dealership. We see Mr. Landrover pull into a parking space, also taking note to walk wide because you never know. He's still in the car when we see him drive forward through the parking space. Apparently he felt like 4wheeling today because he goes up and over the concrete block, over the crapping grass and then over the other concrete block into the space directly in front of him.
Now keep in mind that he could have simple drove around to the other side and parked into that space. I guess the shortcut made sense to him. He probably wanted to see if his landrover could do it, we don't know why, but he is simply a baffoon w/ a driver's liscense.

Omar,

Why didn't you say anything? I would have been a complete ASS. I would have caused a scene. THIS is your house! Plus, a little tension in the complex is always funny. When Nate beat up our neighbor in Orlando, we went for months with an awkward feeling every time we saw the guy in the parking lot. So, there's your solution. Invite Nate over, and tell him the guy was talking trash about him. he he he......

Wow that is a funny story. I saw the say kind of thing only it over bushes. and the lady could have just drven slightly to the left ON THE DRIVEWAY and not crushed any plants. me and this other guy who works next door at publix were cursing at her she drove away.

I hope she doesn't own the building or anything.
