Not a productive post

My apologies if you're the one whose lawn chair I ran over (and over) and then parked on, but you shouldn't leave garbage in a public parking spot.

I also wanted to say that I'm very eager to let people whose trash I move off of the street know exactly who I am and exactly where I live, but I've yet to come up with any practical ideas as to how I might accomplish this. I suspect it's those that are reserving spots who are the ones relying on anonymity and flush with shame.

so you will park in your roomates spot? the old ladies' down stairs' spot? your friendly neighbor's spot?


despite professed eagerness it is convenient that you've yet to come up with any ideas. none?

in the interest of helping you out i'll offer this one: post your name, address, and phone number in the window of your car. alternatively, post a nice note on the chair that is under your car identifying who you are and explaining why their chair is under your car. you can even include a copy of this thread rather than duplicate the effort.

honestly, your posts read as someone with a solution searching for an explanation. how do you logically get to a conclusion where someone placing a chair in a spot they cleared is somehow relying on anonymity? is flush with shame? seriously, what contortion have you come up with?

In the interest of helping you out, I'll offer this one: the people who want to save spots, can put their name, address and phone number on the item they wish to use to mark the spot.

That way, when DPW comes and picks it up, they'll know who to fine for littering.

Oh, no, that would be too much like admitting they know it's wrong to mark spots.
