Sarah: Boot THIS!

My brother and I attended a wedding yesterday downtown, at a location where parking was impossible. As a fast resort (we thrive on running late), we parked in a near vacant parking lot of a well-known fast food chain. Although this parking lot had signs indicating that it was for customers only, I had parked in this lot before with no negative consequences. HOWEVER, when we returned from the wedding ceremony, we had a boot on the wheel of our car. Although I understand that we shouldn't occupy places for customers, I was extremely vexed for the following reasons:

  • THE PARKING LOT WAS ALMOST EMPTY!! No one eats at that stupid restaurant. It's in a horrible location, and they boot nice people! Why would anyone eat there?!
  • It cost $80 to remove the boot. My brother and I are both poor college students! We would feel deeply penitent if it only cost $20. More than that is just gratuitous.
  • On the notice that included a description of the penalty and a number to call, they spelled "boot device" incorrectly. Twice. They spelled it "boot devise" on an obviously bulk-printed item. Rude and stupid.
  • Why would anyone choose to work as the guy who deals with booted cars? No one would like you. Lots of people would hate you. Like I did.
    I'm boycotting that restaurant, even though I never ate there in the first place. I hope they go out of business in the next month, and that their building is reduced to a pile of rubble and then just one big parking lot that is open to the public. Jerks. Also, learn how to spell.

    David, thou art a bastard. (Anderson, not Boreanaz)

    Hee. I hope he really does go by "d-bo." Isn't that the name of the huge dumb guy who rides the tiny bike in "Friday?" Picturing David Boreanaz riding a miniature bicycle makes the whole thing that much funnier. However, for legal reasons I am going to officially deny driving by his in-laws' house. What am I, some kind of crazy stalker?

    dude, sarah, you have to admit that was funny. i should be the one writing weblogs. i totally don't deserve you throwing the b-word around at me. i just loved the idea of him always trying to play off his "angel" character, even when he was just himself. and then calling himself d-bo, what can i say, sometimes inspiration just strikes.
