First world problems..
If this is the worst thing in your life............
What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?
-- Ayn Rand, Anthem (Chapter 11)
This is a huge pet peeve of mine. I don't know why, but my neighbor has a corner house, with more street parking than anyone in the neighborhood. He chooses to park in front of my house! I don't complain, nor have I mentioned it, because others have pointed out that it is perfectly legal and I don't have HOA. He doesn't even use his driveway, just parks in front of my house and leaves his driveway empty, I'm not sure why. I also have a side yard with an improved driveway for my camper, he consistently parks in front of it. I've had to ask him to move several times to access my camper or park it when I've come home from camping, you would think he would get a hint. He is a total lib too, I suspect that is the reason, no respect for personal property. Anyway, some day I'll move to the country and trade my existing problems for new one's. Sigh.

I have to wonder if people park across the street because they are too lazy to do a U-turn in the morning or some other equally dumb reason. I have a harder time sleeping when my car is on the street as opposed to in my driveway, why anyone would CHOOSE to park in the street is beyond me.

This is an easy fix, once upon a time i lived in the city also, same issue, neighbor would drive past her own house to park in front of mine cause i had a large maple that would offer some shade, bitch park in front of your house
Solution: i strategically aimed a sprinkler head from my front lawn to nicely water her car. If you have the lovely water quality of most denver suburbs you know that when dried in the sun those spots will have to wear off before they come off
Two days and she never parked in front of my house again
Problem solved
Parking on the street is just risky in some areas. There's an area in my neighborhood where punks hang out and drink their beer and then break all the glass bottles. Glass everywhere!
I like the sprinkler idea.
I'm not sure talking with him would work- if you've already left two notes and there's been no response, I'm not sure it's worth it.
Have you tried parking your car in front of his house? Or leaving something parked in front of your house that precludes him from leaving his vehicle there?

Feedback for TheGrey
Stop writing notes, walk to their home and politely ask the person face to face to not park in front of your house.
Also...
Anyone that will vandalize a mans property(for WHATEVER reason) whether it be their home, car, etc etc is a fucking pussy. If a person doesn't have the balls to handle either with words, or fists and must stoop to cowardice such as vandalism, they are a scumbag. If a person will go this far the might as well steal the radio too, its on the same piece of shit level as a thief.
/rant, sorry if I hurt anyone's feeling.

pour out a bunch of cooking oil in the spot while his car is there. wont hurt the environment and the guy will think he has a serious problem might even be in the shop a few days.
i don't have a problem with people parking in front of our house, because they never do. If and when it happens they're gone within the hour , hour and 1/2 tops. That's the pesky church crew 3x a week.
Now the guy around the corner he's a PITA.![]()

At least your church sings quietly... The church next door to us has their freaking drums set up on amps and shitty ass guitar music along with it. I've been thinking of having a Megadeath Sunday Brunch... Outside of course... Maybe some Dying Fetus mixed in with it.... That would go over real good.
