people... we have a problem!



What does that say? Am I reading it all wrong? Is there any subtext that I’m not aware of? Is there ANY text that I’ve missed?

Then why, WHY FOR THE LOVE OF GOD AND ALL THAT IS HOLY, do people disrespect the sign?!!!



Sure, I understand… sometimes… when you’re in a hurry… there’s no parking available, there’s a certain lure to that empty parking space, just sitting… waiting… BUT THAT DOESN”T MAKE IT RIGHT!!!

Alright… all is said and done… I’m calmcalmsee… I can do the numbers thing… 1… 2… 3… 4… 5… 6… O’ GOD DAMN IT!!! YOU @#@!@! #@#@$ !@$$&#$ Can’t you at least respect those who are physically challenged? Don’t you have any sympathy for a guy in a wheelchair?

Ok… Sorry about that… 1… 2… 3… 4… 5… 6… !@$ @# !!!%###... fine, don’t respect your fellow equals, don’t respect animals, but for heavens sake… WHAT DON’T YOU UNDERSTAND ABOUT THIS PICTURE?



It’s a man on a wheelchair… symbolizing someone who’s somehow, in one way or the other, physically challenged, and therefore requires, NEEDS, to have a parking spot more convenient than others.

Okay… Okay… Breathe… Breathe… 1… 2… 3… 4… 5… 6… 7… 8… 9… almost there… 10…

Ladies and Gentlemen… Is it too much to ask to cling to the last thread of decency and not cross that barrier… that BIG FAT !@$@# LINE… between human beings and scum!

The thing is… I tried, God knows, I tried very hard to try to see past the obvious… when witnessing such a disgusting act. I gave the benefit of a doubt and tried with every fiber in my body to try to convince myself that there was something wrong with that person who just pulled up in the Disabled parking lot.

Well? He’s walking… no funny business there… two legs, two arms, a big oversized melon of a head (but hey, I was in Jabriya, that’s to be expected). Ok, his Dishdasha needed washing, his hair needed grooming, he might be Fashion-Challenged. But as far as I can tell… physically, he was fine… well apart from that anchor attached to his neck (sorry… couldn’t help it… and I know… I’ll be punished by Gods karma and will end up with a child who’s just a head with 4 limbs attached to it). There was nothing wrong with him… so… why… why… why why why why why why?

There was something wrong… I wanted to go up to him and ask him why he just parked in a handicapped parking. But then I thought… “this THING might be contagious”. It might be air-born and I might catch it.

What brings my blood to boil is that sometimes the parking lot is not even full. Congratulations… you just won the WORST PERSON ON EARTH award. You just made that guy, who parked in this spot for the lack of available spots, look like a saint… well not a saint per se… he’s still a jack-!##.

Anyway… being the helpful person that I am… obviously… that goes without saying… of course… without a doubt… absolutely…anyway… as I was saying. I devised a plan.

It is clear that we cannot rid our country of those people. So we might as well accept the fact that they’re here to stay. I propose that we make a separate parking lot just for those types of people. This way, we’ll increase the chances that they leave the handicapped spots alone.



I went this morning to take more pictures, and I found this guy parked.



Ok… I was hesitant to use this picture as an example, because let’s be fair, there is an empty parking space next to the car. Also, the sign isn’t clear enough, even though it is for the parking space he’s taken but still, usually the disabled parking lots are situated near the corners.



Lo and behold, I was saved… just what I needed…

And then…


Ooooo… this is just added bonus… this is icing on the cake… I love that third guy!

On a lighter note, Jabriya Co-op did find a solution for this problem. No, really… I’m not kidding… I don’t know why the rest of the world does not adopt their solution… Huh! United States of America!!! You call yourself civilized? Well I don’t see you guys figuring out a solution to this disabled parking lot problem! Jabriya Co-op found a solution and it made sure no one parks in the disabled parking lot.



Literally... NO ONE WILL PARK IN THE DISABLED PARKING LOT!!! THAT’S GENIUS!!!

I love this… The Nobel Prize winners down at Jabriya Co-op thought it would be a good idea to BARRACKED the parking lots.

That bit about Jabriya coop barrackading the disabled parking, well, the poles are actually detachable and if a the parking is needed, they just have to honk for the security guard at the entrance to remove the pole.
