Those aren't the only Malibu erections that advertise dickishness.

basemetal: Meh, if I owned one of those houses, I wouldn't want your ass there either.

I think I can guess your political leanings from your post..

Granted I am an East Coaster and have only been there once but Malibu is a strange place to me. Multimillion dollar bungalows the size of a NYC apt literally down the block a trailer park. Weird place.

"I want to move to a place that attracts tourists! Waaaah why are there so many tourists?!"

Some people don't seem to understand that they don't own the street in front of their house.

Douchebagistan

It must suck to live in a nice sunny place where lots of people come to spend their money. My heart goes out.

When your 4-car garage isn't enough.

Bigger story: people are getting parking tickets from the fake signs, even though at this point, the police/traffic wardens must be aware of this practice.

/throw it all at the wall, see what sticks. Ridiculous.

Malibu, Malibu
Friendly neighborhood Malibu

oh ... um, maybe not

I have a similar problem with my neighbor. My home is on the outside of a curve in the road, so the frontage is rather limited compared to my neighbor's home, which is on the straight part of the road. I only have enough area in front of my house to park one car. I let my wife use the one stall driveway. We would end up blocking each other in all the time if we both used it. So there is one parking spot in my driveway and one on the street in front of my house.

My neighbor has 1 spot in her driveway and 2 streetside. Her driveway is generally occupied by her. For some reason when my neighbor's friends and family come over the first spot they occupy on the street is the one in front of my house instead of the two in front of hers.

The result is that I end up parking perpendicular directly in front of their car (the street is very wide in the corner) or I park on my lawn right next to their car. I hope I'm getting my message across, but it doesn't seem to be working.

Shoot a couple of them. They'll catch on.

Why not just hire this guy to make sure people don't park in their precious parking spaces?

Just park in Malibu Adjacent.

If all three streetside spots are occupied, I doubt there's much you can do since it would be first-come-first-serve, but if it's one of yours and one of hers, can you park in front of her house? If not, I'd suggest mentioning it to her the next time you're both out shoveling snow together, or leaving a letter in her mailbox if you're never around at the same time.

Don't these "high priced homes" have driveways and garages? So why do residents care who parks in the street?

Because they are narcissistic a-holes with money.

What be neighborly and try to talk to a neighbor about a problem? That shiat is for the birds. He should stay his course and be a passive aggressive dick wad because you can see how well it has been working for him so far.

For one thing, you probably try to explain it to them in the same manner as you wrote this lame comment. If was your neighbor and had to hear you whine like this I would be parking in you driveway and in your one and only spot in the street...geeeeez.

You understand that you don't own the street in front of your house right? In most states and towns you don't even own a certain amount of the yard in front of your house. I don't understand why you can't park in front of your neighbors house, or across the street, or in your driveway when this happens which is probably not all the time, or down the street a little. Would it really kill you to walk a couple hundred feet every once in a while? You sound kind of entitled.

Don't listen to these pansies cgraves67. Next time it happens get a bat and show them what happens when you fark a stranger in the ass.

Aren't these rich white people? Can't they just complain to the city and have real signs put up?

\Pfft, rich white people problems.

I'm unclear about the "message" here. If the spaces are on a public street (even though here we pay taxes on our property, the area calculated to the center or the road frontage) it's for the PUBLIC to park on. These relatives of the neighbor in question seem to fit the general definition of "public." Q.E.D.

Of course, all this is a bit abstract to me....we've got room to park 15 cars, and that's just in our drive. Yeah, I'm just one of those tourists, takin ur parking.

farkityfarker: Some people don't seem to understand that they don't own the street in front of their house.

They also don't understand that they don't own the beach. Many residents have tried for years to limit access to the beach. Even though by law they have to provide beach access, they don't. Several big name people have been involved in lawsuits for years over beach access.

My neighbor does something similar. Their deadbeat adult son likes parking his beater POS in front of my house instead of in front of theirs. He does this as close as he can get to my driveway, so he's partially blocking my turn into the driveway.

Haven't had a chance to point out the dickishness of this yet. Although the one evening I had to dispose of an old toilet was humorous, as my garbage pickup spot is on that same corner, and he came out to find a tall, heavy, and unstable porcelain commode directly in front of his driver's door.

They understand perfectly. They are doing what they can to cut down on the herds of yammering monkeys that parade around their houses.

Malibu residents begin erecting signs alerting world of their dickishness

Are they putting up herma (new window) (Possibly NSFW)?

So go be rich somewhere else.

Shoulda added "Full".

basemetal: Meh, if I owned one of those houses, I wouldn't want your ass there either.

Too bad you don't own the world. And these people don't either. Fine them for their fraud and evict them from the area. They have proven to be more of a nuisance than the tourists, since tourism capital isn't such a nuisance when it pays for infrastructure.

thismomentinblackhistory: Can't they just put a lawn chair in their parking spot and dump some snow on the curb?

I collect garbage in the winter.

skullkrusher: Granted I am an East Coaster and have only been there once but Malibu is a strange place to me. Multimillion dollar bungalows the size of a NYC apt literally down the block a trailer park. Weird place.

Meh...They exist on the east coast too. Think Myrtle Beach. But uh...there are more aesthetically pleasing beaches in Cali. Minus the homes. Public too. Bring your fishing pole and crab gear.

also FTA: Malbu's mayor pro tem Laura Rosenthal says the signs can be easily ordered on the internet.

Malibu's mayor is a moran. Laura, did you just visit your first webpage last month? This is what we have Fark photoshop contests for. Or hell, anybody with so much as MS paint and a printer.

There's a beach in Malibu that runs right up next to a string of houses and right at the parks' line is a fence across the beach that only goes up to the high water mark. The sign says "Private Property, No Tresspassing." What they're betting is on people not knowing that private property by federal law can only extend to the high water mark and anything between that and the current water line is public property. I've only been twice or so, but every time I go I make a point to park at the state park and walk around the fence and put my towel right in front of those farking houses.

Suck it rich people.

Sounds like you're getting the benefits of a private beach, without there actually being a private beach.

There's no such thing as a private beach in the United States. They have a problem with it they can move to France. My tax dollars pay for the street in front of their house and pay to keep the water in front of their house clean. I'm gonna use both.
