Parking in front of a hydrant is the height of douchebaggery . I will hop a curb then end up parallel parked with the Transit in the Mayor's courtesy spot in front of the New Bedford City Hall. It is a busy street that is blocked entirely whilst you park. :D

I hate when people park diagonally in a straight spot. I usually park as close as them as possible

I'll happily park on the curb to block the drivers door of the asshat who double parked at the front of the lot. I came out once to find the driver pissed because somebody blocked the other side too. That was epic. I respect reason for double parking but you better be at the BACK of the lot!

Yea, parking on curbs is stupid. The only time I've actually done it is by accident.... like parking on a snow pile and come out to find it melted and the one side of the truck is now parked on the curb instead of the snow that was there.

I have been guilty of parking a tire on top of those parking stop things - concrete or rubber - which is much more of a challenge, especially with a manual trans. I don't do it often, but I've done it a few times with people watching just for the fun of it. There is no challenge to parking on a curb.
