First, there is the one that parks at your mum's lot (forcing her to park in front of the closed gate of the next door HDB-lookalike 'mansion').
Second, there is the one who moves away the dustbin we put on the lot to deter the people from
the opposite condo,
the neighbouring 'mansion'
AND the next door terrace
from parking on that lot (apparently it doesnt work cause those dimwits move the dustbin away any way).
Last, there is the one who sticks annoying notices on your mum's car (one that's from the 'mansion').
That goes like this:
"Please park PROPERLY (underline)! Your car is blocking the gate!!!"
Fact 1:
The gate is perma-closed. PERMA.
There's this sign on it there goes "NO TRESPASSERS ALLOWED". And they keep the gate closed so everyone can see it and noone trespasses.
So, my mum parking there is like, 'blocking' the closed gate.
Fact 2:
The auntie who puts the notice on my mum's car hasnt done it the first time.
She rang our doorbell at 7 in the morning to get us to move the car away from the closed gate.
She has pasted notices on my mum's car before.
She comes to disturb us at VERY VERY unusual times (in the morning, during dinner etc)
I think it is quite obvious to say that apparently, she has no life.
I bet she stands at her house window and STARES at the road, waiting for the opportune time when that lavendar car parks outside the closed gate.
Then she picks from her stack of ready-made warnings (of course they're ready-made) a yellow notice , storms outside, shoves the piece of paper onto the back of the car - and afterwards, returns to her post.
Back at her post, she sits there dutifully with her binoculars, waiting for the owner of the lavendar car (knowing it belongs to my mum) to react to the notice and like a good and unquarrelsome neighbour, shifts the car away.
After waiting for OMG TWO WHOLE MINUTES!, she marches down over to unit 15 and shouts EXCUSE ME!!, cause she's obviously pissed that noone paid attention to her warning (which is the sole purpose of her life).
I mean, what more could deter someone from parking there besides 1) pasting who knows how many notices and 2) telling them to move it? RIGHT?
Well, I have suggestions.
(1) USE YOUR BRAIN.
I was abt to paste this letter back onto the gate when my dad stopped me ):
I wrote: A CLOSED GATE IS NEVER BLOCKED, GENIUS (: [complete with smiley face]
Yea, because my mum completely devastates the lives of the people in the 'mansion' by parking outside the closed gate.
Next time, try using the opened side.
(2) BE GRACIOUS.
OBVIOUSLY, there is only one parking space in our house - the porch.
We don't live in a 'mansion' where there is the abyss of space for its residents to park in.
And i think her observation skills must be lacking, otherwise she'd know that we have >1 car.
If annoying residents around us keep parking at the spaces outside our house, where do we park?
Outside the closed gate lah, whereelse? :/
Still, i must praise her for her fervency - otherwise known as auntienascity.
Never failing to net us with her yellow notices of doom (:
