Default How certain would you have to be...

to question someone about smacking your car with their door?

If you didn't actually see it happen, would you mention it if there was good evidence that you knew who did it?

If it is the spot where their door would have hit, I would say something, especially if their door had a white spot on it.

Are you hoping they'll pay to fix the damage? Is that the point of asking them?

He just wants to tell them "I love you".

Not really.
People not taking responsibility for their actions piss me off, and it seems to be a pattern with him.

And I've been known to mess with peoples minds when given the chance.

Placement is correct, and there is a corresponding gouge on the edge of his door. We park in the same spot daily, and it's very rare that I am ever in any other parking lot with my car.

Sounds like you're not concerned about saving a friendship.

In which case, I'd confront him, yes.

I'd try Lander's idea, actually, about using "those three words."

"I love you, man. But quit being a queefbag."

I'm not here to make friends.

hmmm...
I guess I should read that thread about the three words now.

Meh.

Nothing says revenge like dropping a brick on the vents under the windshield.

Had a girl hit my bumper last week in a coffee shop. I saw her do it and she took off. I followed her home. The damage on her car coincides with the damage on mine and she is still denying it. ( and so is her father). I told the old man I was going to the Police to fill out a hit and run. He said he wasn't going to be bullied and went to the Police and told then "their" side first. Cop called me on my cell and yelled at me for following her home. I asked the LEO if he was in the habit of believing the first side of the story he hears and how that would be a bad thing to be a good LEO and of course he got pissed.

He told me I had to come in the station IMMEDIATELY ,and I told him I was busy. Anyway got an estimate of $527.00 and the father could have paid me 200 to go away but now he is going to have a claim against his ins.

Like bsmith said, I am so sick of people trying to get away with shit. My car has 180K on it, but my wifes X5 has had two of these in the last six months.
Reason 3498 why I hate people.

I am the first one here daily, so I park where it is relatively safe...but apparently not far enough from this moron.


Every bad stereotype you hear about younger workers...he fits.

I should jump-start my Oldsmobile and make him climb in through the passenger side tomorrow.
