Parked car puzzler:

There aren’t many visual puzzles that involve parking jobs. So when we find one, we reluctantly post it. Can you figure out what number is underneath the parked car???

Give up? Yea, that’s enough time. Flip it over, it’s 87… YUP!

Things I’m unsure of:
• Whether or not this cargo-shorts wearing buffoon installed this sign himself as a joke. A joke to bring even more undeserved attention to his stupid car. Just get back in the car, pop in your Smashmouth CD, and drive straight to hell.

Things I am sure of:
• The owner of this vehicle looking like Guy Fieri

Sometimes, you’re just so JAZZED writing parking tickets, that you disregard the basic understanding of your surroundings and let your car plow through a cinderblock wall. It’s bound to happen, no?

Well, it did for Santa Fe’s Parking Division employee Karmela Garcia. After stepping out of the car to write someone else a parking ticket, she turned around to find that her city-owned 2003 Chevy.. wasn’t where she left it. While some may think this would be a clever ruse to upgrade to a new taxpayer-funded company car, the general consensus is that it’s merely some highly-ironic, Grade “A” cluelessness. And to think, she even had her lucky keyring on her. Shucks!

“AHHHhhhhh shit….”

What Garcia DID say was that “she might have left the vehicle in drive and that is why the vehicle traveled down the hill“…

Take a bow, Garcia! And let the shame of a nation echo in your dreams.

Every generation has it’s moment where the underdog clenches their fists, rises up, and sticks it to their oppressor. David and Goliath. The 1980 US Men’s Olympic hockey team. Ralphie smacking the snot out of Farkus in A Christmas Story. I think what we’re seeing here is OUR generations “moment”.

I don’t know what to call it, but I know it deserves our respect.

The footage may be grainy, but the parking fail is crystal clear. Easy with the lead foot, pal!
