Default Best parking spot ever!

Almost. Between the light pole on the left and power pole on the right, the chances of a bird pooping on your car go up exponentially...

Spots like that actually make you more of a target.

A target for what exactly?

There is no one around to open their car door on yours and no reason
for anyone to walk passed your car and possibly scratch it with a swinging hand bag or something.


Also its a freaking joke, lighten up.

Back in the late 90's I had a Trans Am that I parked in a similair spot. I came back from work one day and it was egged. So is it possible? Yes. No parking spot is guranteed from harm from a jealous ahole.

I'd rather take my chances with bird poo (since I always have quick retailer spray and microfiber cloths in the frunk) than some crazed shopper with a cart or folks who open their doors without regard for other people's cars...T
