He said five handicapped spots were open next to him.

Your side note - my family/friends always give me crap for parking so far away. I like no one next to me, and I like to pull through. “First move forward”.

I saw where he said that but even with other spaces open, it's still not a good look. Plus, he mentioned that a busybody still rapped on his window all the same. Who needs all that confrontation and negativity in one's life?

Like you, I park in the outer reaches where parking is ample and nobody else parks right next to me. Keeps my blood pressure low and my life stress-free.
