This guy just left a sweary note for the guy who parked in his spot… but he made one glaring error
Here's why being passive aggressive isn't always the best option
WHEN an angry resident left a passive aggressive note on a parked car in his street, he never expected this to happen.
Unfortunately, the aggravated driver wasn’t aware that he was about to give some new neighbours a very unconventional welcoming.
Feeling satisfied that he was addressing someone who didn’t live in the local area, the resident wasn’t worried about leaving them a little message.
The aggressive note, which was scrawled on the back of an envelope, read: “You don’t live here. Don’t f****** park here!!!”
Awkwardly, the mystery parker spotted the hostile warning and replied with some words of their own.
Revealing the truth, they wrote: “Nice to meet you too. I’m your new neighbour.”

Following the cringe-worthy exchange, there’s no doubt that there’ll be some awkward chats over the fence between the two residents.
Since a snap of the passive aggressive notes was posted to Imgur yesterday, it’s been viewed over 31,000 times.

Over the past year, it seems that furious drivers leaving notes on car windscreens has become a huge trend.
Last month, the owner of a smart car decided to take matters into his own hands by leaving a warning message for a Mercedes driver that had blocked him in.
The words, left on the car windscreen by a Londoner, read: “You are very brave parking your nice merc so close to my smart car which I don’t give a s*** about!!!”
There’s no doubt that the dodgy parker will think twice about squeezing into a tight gap again, as he wouldn’t want to get his fancy motor scratched up.
Similarly, in April, a Clapham resident came up with an imaginative way to get his own back on a selfish car owner.
Placing a neatly written questionnaire onto the windscreen seemed to be the best way for this motorist to vent his anger.
Baffled at who the phantom parker could be, the writer addressed the note to an “inconsiderate neighbour, “weekend reveller” or blind singer “Stevie Wonder”.
The passive aggressive message continues: “Did you: A. Park in a legitimate parking space?
“B. See it wasn’t a legit space, think ‘f*** it’ and park there anyway #yolo!
“C. Park across the drive causing us to miss an important christening and let down our close friends?”
