There was a spot close to where i lived close to a kindergarten - it was a driveway for emergency vehicles, crossing over the sidewalk and closed off. Every fucking day for 2 hours in the morning and intermittent during the afternoon you had to dodge illegally parked cars there, most of the time not even leaving enough space for a wheelchair or a baby stroller while they dropped their own kids off.
There were perfectly fine legal parking spaces a few meters down the road.
It was more than “mildly infuriating”, because it speaks of either a lack of self-awareness or a “fuck you, got mine"-mentality.

How many valve stems did you collect?

Don’t collected the valve stems. That’s property damage and it’s illegal. Instead, buy a box of valve stem caps and a box of small BB’s. Glue the BB’s inside the caps and swap them out with the ones already on the nuisance car (tape the old ones to the tailgate so you aren’t stealing), and go on about your day. It’s gonna take them awhile to figure out why their tires keep deflating because nobody checks that caps, and it takes less than 30 seconds the bend down and “tie your shoe”.
