I used to do that until I got a $100 fire lane violation ticket. Now I circle the lot looking for a spot while I see everyone else pull up and park illegally to pick up their takeout.
I must have had bad timing, I guess a cop was driving by when I went in to pay. I was only gone 5 minutes.

This stupid lady you speak of must be a member of the Boomer generation (aka the worst generation, aka the entitlement generation, aka those who have destroyed America)
Boomers are a worthless generation that has done nothing but destroy this country and continually take credit for things they did not do. They have run BOTH political parties into the ground and are responsible for running the economy into the ground and creating a mountain of debt by consistently voting for generous entitlements for themselves while simultaneously refusing to pay (i.e. Raise taxes) for those entitlements.
They claim they have benefited us all by giving us cultural gifts--by starting movements that gave us equal rights for blacks, women, gay folks, by giving us modern music (like rock & roll) through their pioneering efforts, by giving us modern computer science, and through things like iconic movies.
But a closer look at these claims reveals their lies. As a starting point, please take note that it is widely agreed that Boomers were born 1946-1964. This means that the oldest members of this generation turned 30 in 1976 and, thus, they have been running the show in the US since the mid to late 1970s.
The major civil rights leaders for black equal rights in the 60s (Martin Luther King, Jr., Medger Evers, Rosa Parks, Ceaser Chavez, Fred Shuttlesworth, Jon Lewis, Malcom X, and many more) were all born in the 20s to early 40s. But you know who is a boomer? Al Sharpton.
The major players in the second wave feminist movement (Gloria Steinem, Betty Friedan, Mary King, Alice Rossi) of the 60s were all born in 20s - early 40s as well. Of course, this means the women who fought for basic equal rights (like the right to vote) were even older. These brave women were not boomers. But Boomers are the leaders of the disgusting mess that is third wave feminism...
The folks that were the pioneers in equal rights for gay people (Harvey Milk, Del Martin, Phyllis Lyon) also not Boomers.
Who is widely acknowledged to be the father of modern computer science? Alan Turing. A gay non-Boomer.
Let's examine the music claims...Jimmi Hendrix? Jim Morrison? The Beatles? The Rolling Stones? Bob Dylan? Yup, all non-Boomers.
How about movies, directors, actors, etc?... Stanley Kubrick? Harrison Ford? George Lucas? Robert De Niro? Al Pacino? Robert Duval? Martin Scorsese? Clint Eastwood? George Romero? Francis Ford Coppala? Chevy Chase? Steve Martin? J.J. Abrams? The entire Monty Python crew? Yup, all non-boomers.
To summarize, Boomers frequently claim that their generation was responsible for major cultural and art movements but it's totally not true. Boomers are parasites and leeches....and I am assume some are good people. We should build a wall on our southern boarder, strip the boomers of their ill-gotten entitlements, and ship them down to old Mexico. All of our problems would be solved. Let's make America great again!
^This is historically and factually correct. Well done.
Why should the rules or laws apply to you? The laws were designed to make life easier for you. You are the only one who matters.

The woman was probably mad because you took her spot in front of the shop. I bet she was trying to scare you by saying that. What a filthy hypocrite.

Incredibly lame post. A single line attempting to relate your tired boomer issue with a totally unrelated thread and a cut and paste from your previous BS postings. Start your own thread or better yet, quit whining.
I do understand how many people park illegally and thinks it is their right to so and get an attitude when called out on it.
There is a gas station by my house that has a handicap spot on the side of the building. The problem isn't that people park in the handicap spot, apparently they know thats wrong. However, they park directly in front of the handicap ramp, because walking another 30 feet from the other parking sports would be too difficult. This is not a one time occurrence. I see this at least 90% of the time i stop there.

I did this once in Boston and got a $70 ticket while I was a poor student. So I knew it was wrong. Never made that mistake again. Those damn police or meter maids who hand out tickets are the hardest working city employees you'll ever find. It's cool for police, on or off duty, to park wherever they want though.
True story, when I was younger I drove a delivery truck for a while. One day I was on a route I'd never driven before and I had to drop off a couple of boxes of candy to this shop inside an office building. It's like 6:50 a.m. and I park the truck in a spot where anyone can park before 7, thinking I would just run in and out. Turns out the lady who worked there was legally blind and it took longer than I expected to get everything checked in and signed for. By the time I get back out to my truck it's just a couple of minutes after 7 and I had a parking ticket on my windshield. It's like the person had the ticket pre-written and ready to go right after 7.
Moral of the story: guess I should've just left my hazards on and then everything would've been OK.
It's not uncommon for people to leave their cars where they aren't supposed to be while they run into a building for "just a couple minutes." Usually they get away with it. Occasionally not. In the latter case it's their own fault. Your luck actually seems to have held here. It seems like you got away before a cop got there.
This is 100% spot on. The specifc baby boomer generation is actually the entitled generation. As they say, you often see in others what you are yourself....

I'm sure your job is stressful, but on the flip side, at least you can drive in the carpool lane when you put the over-sized mouse head from your character costume at Chuck E. Cheese in the passenger seat.
What do you mean, who's in the wrong? You're clearly in the wrong - are you that dense? That being said, I'd probably do the same thing.

"what makes you feel like you are entitled to park there"
You are the worst kind of person, you sound like an angry middle aged feminist. No entitlement, he's just parking there to grab his food for fvcks sake. If it doesn't affect you, move on with your life. And to answer OP's question, no, you're not in the wrong as there's really no problem here, just a irritated uptight b|tch angry at everyone for problems that aren't hers.

Doesn't matter. Where I grew up the lady who called the cops would have had her car on concrete blocks shortly after.
He's pretty much the trump personality personified.
He believes he is above the law, and he personally attacks anyone who wants to push moral responsibility onto him.

You're wrong. I can't freaking stand entitled little s**ts like you who are too freaking lazy to park and walk. And while some of you do actually take the time to park, you are too freaking lazy to park well. (Seriously, how hard is it to park between the lines?)
I hope you have your license revoked.

You're lucky she wasn't packing. She should have shot you.
