You said it MUCH less crassly than I did, and I am working on that, but thank you.
WTF kind of conservative @#$@ing thread is this?!?!?!
I think you got your point across rather well.
First of all - our tax money paid for the streets in the first place! Now they are charging extortion to park on the street.
When I was in college & lived in apartments with street parking, I would yell at the meter maids (really, what a lame-ass job that is) all the time.
SoCal is the worse - they don’t let a second go by without writing up that ticket. They can see you running down the street & they tell you “I already started writing it & can’t go stop now.” Real rat-bastards.
