This is not a story about road rage. It’s about parking rage—the quiet fury we all feel when someone’s Corvette spreads out like it’s sunbathing. But one college student took a high road paved with psychological warfare. Let’s just say their note hit harder than any bumper ever could.

Corvette parking: four spots, one ego

You ever see a car parked like it’s allergic to painted lines? This Corvette wasn’t just over one line—dude took four whole spots, like he failed the preschool unit on sharing. A clever college student didn’t key the paint, slash the tires, or call campus security. Nope, they weaponized sarcasm—and a sticky note.

The note read: “Sorry I hit your car, you probably won’t even notice the damage.” No contact info., no signature, no fists, no fury—just a flawless flex of brainpower.

When the student returned from class, they saw the Corvette owner—described as a “very stereotypical college aged Corvette owner”—frantically inspecting his vehicle and yelling into his phone. The student noted, “I don’t know who they were talking to, but I feel bad for them having to deal with this person.”

Corvette parking: the internet reacts

The student shared the story on Reddit. Other users had thoughts. User jvalia summed it up: “That’s petty as f— I love it.” Nightst0ne imagined the note reading, “Sorry I hit your car, someone saw me so I’m leaving this note, without my info.” FriedrichAndre called it “Psychological warfare. Nice.” 

Others shared their own petty revenges. User pineapplebish recounted leaving a note on a Honda Civic that said, “Your car isn’t nice enough to park like an a——.” Ngamoko praised the act as “Simple, elegant, f——- brilliantly petty.” 

Some users speculated about the Corvette owner’s reaction. JustNosing commented, “Sad thing is, you just know he found some little scratch or dent, anything to justify the note and is probably looking for any cameras around anywhere so he can sue someone.” The student replied, “No cameras in that lot I’m pretty sure.” 

Others suggested more elaborate pranks. User sekazi mused, “I have always been tempted to get spray chalk and paint the lines on the vehicle.” Lentil_farmer admired the effort: “This is a pro level revenge for the amount of work it requires relative to the emotional trauma it creates. NICE.” 

We may never know if Corvette guy learned to park like a human. But thanks to one student’s perfectly petty plot, he definitely learned paranoia. A little paper, a few words, and four stolen parking spaces avenged—no tow truck required.
