AIBU to next time tell him to fuck off?

[ohreallyohreallyoh]

Parking. I get the frustration for people living near schools but I never park illegally and never block people in. This evening at 4:30 I parked up in my usual spot about 2 doors down from the school as we are not allowed to park in the school car park. Bloke in van pulled in behind me, gesturing wildly. Got out his car and banged on my window, demanding that I move my car so He could park outside his house. Several times I head tilted and said ‘why’ and he repeated himself, each time just a little bit more aggressively. I had turned off the car and picked up my mobile to speak to my eldest to see if he’d picked up a loaf on the way home. Once I’d done that (man still shouting at me),I moved the car across the road but walked back past him to a very insincere ‘thank you’. Repeated again that my car was taxed and insured and that as I was legally parked, under no obligation to move my car. He then got really aggressive and yelled at me that he was ‘going to report’ me for being on my mobile. I laughed and said yes, in a legally parked up car with the engine turned off. So his response to that was that it was illegal to use a mobile in a car.

I shouldn’t have moved, I know. I was wrong, AIBU to stalk that parking space so next time I can tell him to do one?!

Am really shaken.

Of course you are not being unreasonable. You can park anywhere you like on a public road. And if that man doesn't like it he should have bought a house with a bloody drive way. The OP didn't need to move, the man was unreasonable but not everyone can afford a house with a driveway, bloody or not.

Neither are sexist. They are words to describe a behaviour and apply to anyone displaying that behaviour...whatever gender they are. I doubt psychologists or doctors refrain from using those words because someone is female...they use them for males too...as do I.

Let's get it right. Two nights ago there was an argument. It was removed and sorted.
Then last night, along comes a poster who only ever derails threads, who was egged on by the poster who disagreed with me before. Speaking about deleted posts in an attempt to goad.
I defended myself.
In another desperate to provoke again, she said I sounded hysterical, ect. So I shot back that she sounded misogynistic using that terminology. Then I was called sexist.
Yet I'm perceived as the GF. It's a shame but last time I was bored in bed, and had the time to fight back. Today, I don't have the time.

I just think this argument over which words posters use is a bit silly. We're keyboard warriors throwing whatever arguments we think of at each other, and sometimes our choice of words isn't the best. I don't think it's meant in a sexist way at all.

Are you a GF? No, thinking about it, you're allowing yourself to be goaded by the GFs on here, and then it all degenerates for the others on the thread who want to talk about the parking issue rather than who is and who isn't a GF, and the meaning of certain words.

Give it as rest Estellanpip
You refused to accept the legal position about the parking. You minimised the behaviour of an aggressive man against a female who had done nothing wrong.
You then called me a Ct.
I admitted I shouldn't have called you stupid because that was a personal attack and was wrong of me. I should have said your comments were stupid...because they were.
I have never called anyone a ct. I never would, but I did not attack you for calling me that frankly disgusting name.
You should be ashamed of yourself for that.

[Estellanpip]

I don't have the time to untangle all of your twisting.
Consider it rested.

[Gottagetmoving]

You don't have a valid answer. I will take that.

[Estellanpip]

To what question?
Give it a rest.

[Gottagetmoving]

So, it's not rested?... valid response...answer was the wrong word.
