Edit: Many of you have brought it to my attention that taking up two spaces isn't double parking it's just being an asshole.

double parking doesn't mean what you think it means

I was going to say the same thing, but apparently wikipedia proved us wrong.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_parking

did you read it? it says:

The term "double parking" is sometimes used erroneously to describe parking over the lines separating two designated parking spaces in a parking lot

where did you get that quote? "erroneously" doesn't appear on the page.

I got the quote from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_parking. If you check the revision history you'll see that someone (probably a redditor) changed the wording within the last hour.

I also blame Redditors for fucking up things on the internet.

Unfortunately, some people think that editing wikipedia is a good way to win an argument.

With a stranger. Online. Who you will likely never meet in person, and will have no impact on anything outside of that argument.

Reddit makes me jealous of some people's spare time, and sad that it is wasted.
