We do things a bit differently here than in Floriduh, bro.

Of course, if they parked on the street along the curb, they'd be even further into the road. That might be their reasoning ... that it just doesn't matter. And although it looks odd, it doesn't.
You can see a vehicle better when it's parallel parked.
NYC isnt all of NY, get over yourself a bit.

Right.

Right.
It's clear you will attempt to argue anything if I post on it.
Because intelligent people worry about what their mode of transportation looks like?
You should come see what the cars that are owned by the university professors I know look like.
No, what's clear is that you'll post an opinion on anything, and don't really care what you're saying, so long as you get someone to respond and validate your existence.
I'm saying that there's probably no correlation between how pretty your car is and how intelligent you are.i'm not saying everyone is like that, i'm saying that the majority of people who have a car in shitty condition like that and don't take care of their care, also don't really take care of anything else and typically don't give a shit about anyone else but themself.

The majority of those professors I was talking about... their cars are complete shit fests. Full of rubbish and covered in dents and scrapes. Then again most of their offices are full of towering stacks of paper, random books and lost wine glasses.
They really have higher things to think about than waxing the car on a Sunday.
Because when property values fall people you may not want living in your neighborhood can afford to do so and it also indicates no one else probably wants to either.
People who think this way and that property value doesn't matter are what's called "meant to rent".
I have always thought that too many people look at their home like a retirement fund when it should not be looked like that. A home should be looked at more like a car. When you purchase a car you do so because the purchase makes sense and you are able to justify it. Once you have the car its value is less important than its utility. Everyone, no matter who you are needs a place to live. Regardless of the 'value' of ones home everyone needs a place to live thus if the purchase of the home made sense when you signed the papers then the fact that its value may fluctuate with the passage of time should not matter much since you still need a place to live.
That is the mind set I had when I purchased my old home and the mindset I will have when I purchase a future home.
Maybe not a retirement fund, but certainly an investment. Very unlike a car. If you don't view it as an investment, you set yourself up for losing a lot of coin. For instance, I'd never buy a home if I thought the market was peaking and about to correct itself. Nor would I invest thousands into renovations that I didn't think could be substantially recouped in a resale.

My home is not my car.
I can lose my car and still have a nice home.
The comparison I am making is that once you make the purchase of a vehicle its market value at any given moment is not important but its utility (its ability to take you from point A to point B in comfort) is. Once a person agrees to purchase a home they agree that at that particular point the purchase makes sense which is why the follow it through. Once the purchase has been made the value of the home while someone is occupying it and continues to need it is of little importance.
