Open each tube as open as it can get. Push the car forward until the transmission stops it. Place each tube of super glue along the inside edge of each tire firmly up against the back side of the tire. (ie. front of car <--O.--O.-] with a tube where each period is) then let the car roll back to it's normal position. The super glue hardens in about 30 seconds and makes it so that the car won't move for no reason most people will think of. I checked snopes and couldn't find any listing of this, and I've been told it works, but I've never done it to anybody. Buy 4 small tubes of super glue. Open each tube as open as it can get.

She is totally entitled to everything she wants, after all. ps, I admire your friend Jennifer for being able to let it go. I'd have been livid and indignant about it for days. even if I were the kind of self-centered selfish asshole who felt I could do something like what that woman did, I still wouldn’t do it because the risk of retaliation seems too high.

It was very cathartic. Though I am now thinking about keeping one of <a href="http://www.starmagic.com/GLOW-N-DARK-PAINT-PEN.html" rel="nofollow">these</a> in the car for such moments. The "hag" scribbled on the car wouldn't be noticeable during the day and would eventually fade. Yes, the last time I was wronged, I posted a picture of the douchebag on the internet.
