Please Don't Park
FOUND by Faith Kurtyka in Tucson, Arizona
I found this in the parking lot of a grocery store.
Flargy in New Haven, CT
I didn't know the Acme Piece of Shit was still on the market. It'll probably be a big seller if the Detroit bailout doesn't go through.

@ flargy are you kidding? it was their biggest seller from 1979 to 1988, they just can't seem to come up with anything new.

You'd think of all the mean, evil, and diabolical things Wile E. Coyote ever did, parking the Acme POS near a grocery store would not be the one that generated a warning from the Roadrunner. Unless there are other notes that are only now beginning to surface:
-Please don't fire up that polluting rocket sled
-Please don't put iron filings in my birdseed and try to catch me with an electromagnet
-Please don't paint a fake tunnel on a cliff wall to get me to run into it

But...but...but...we were only here for a few minutes..... We are almost done doing our thing... besides these old POS have the best springs for getting busy!!!

Roadrunner might have been referring to his pen, which doesn't look like it works all that well.

@Flargy and Geek ... you beat me to the Acme references

Poor Coyote. No matter what he does, he always fails in the end. Now he's driving a POS around, probably is still unemployed, and has gotten thicker around the middle. Bet his football team loses on Sunday, too.

whenever i hear the phrase "holy shit," i can't help but wonder if the some of the followers of any of the great prophets from the various world religions ever gathered and/or kept some holy shit.

Sammy Davis Junior Jr in a piece of schit
Wellll...it seems that I may have seen this before, many years ago on one a set of wheels I once owned.

It is entirely possible, since, up until recently, everything I drove was a piece of shit.

Yeah, it's me
HA! Night, before I clicked your link, I thought ferr shurr it would be this one:

the comments are pretty funny, and it struck me funny that someone today (on the other find) used the phrase "minnesota nice," and so did someone over there on find 171.

Please don't park this piece of shit here.

However, you may park it over there. Or, over that way. But not here.

Yep, that's a 2009 Piece of Shit, just drove it off the lot. What's that you say.....no I always buy american.

joker, smoker, midnite toker in a roadrunner
at a glance I thought it said "midnight roadrunner." That would've been cool.

is the manager's name roadrunner? Was the manager simply clarifying that the POS car in question was a Roadrunner?
(something like

this, perhaps?)

Librarian in the woodwork
could be the management of:

Roadrunner Auto Center, 1805 S. Craycroft Rd., Tucson, AZ; or maybe

Roadrunner Auto Glass, 609 N Loquat Ave, Tucson, AZ

first one is a used car dealer; second one is a windshield repair/replacement outfit that will come fix your car where it is.

neither one seems to deal with septic systems

Interesting research, Librian. Maybe Coyote's car has a giant cracked windshield and was making the Roadrunner business look bad.

Now there's a store that has a complete understanding of 'the customer is always right' concept....

It is so hard to find a decent place to park your piece of shit these days.

Ummm, would it be okay to park it here if I parked the ENTIRE shit, and not just a piece of it?

@Librarian - LOL!

@cagey: Conceptually, you're thinking along the lines of the Oscar Meyer weinermobile, right? With enough fiberglass anything is possible.

I drive a hybrid: part Piece of Shit, part Piece of Crap. It's a Pretty Shitty. Gets great gas mileage.

I KNOW THE ROADRUNNER!
It's a gas station just a little south of Tucson in a town called Saharita!


I haven't checked this website in like a year.
And today when I came imagine my surprise to actually know and have been to the place!

Oh! This is really a sad story. Hard to repeat in fact. You see, Mr Hanky became a paraplegic when he wasn't watching where you were going. You stepped on (in) him, crushing about 75% of him and taking a huge portion of him with you on your shoe. Seeing the devastation, Cartman rushed Mr Hanky to the hospital. Now, we all know how long it takes for the ERs to respond to patients, so Mr Hanky was hanging out in the chair for a long time, unable to move and Cartman went looking for a nurse he saw walking down the hallway with a bedpan. Some sadistic excuse of a human left this note - Please don't park this piece of shit here. As it turned out, the person who left the note was the CEO of Roadrunner Freight Systems who had shit cast at him in the latest go-round of union talks.

Such good manners. They said please.

I wish I could give this to my next door neighbor regarding his piece of shit, ugly old van. It's an eyesore. But then again, it IS in his driveway. Of course he can't park it in his 2 car garage, because THAT'S full of tons of crap. Grrr...

@gorgon -- Nope. I was picturing an automobile shaped a la Turd. That strikes me as funny.

FARK never approves my submissions in time for their proper impact to be fully appreciated.
Remember, when they say that they're "management," it's usually a dirty lie meant to intimidate the recipient. A couple dead giveaways are (1) when they can't properly abbreviate the word "management"; and (2) when they identify themselves as cartoon characters.
