    in short, retirees place this sign on their vehicles in order to remember where they parked.

    Literally when everyone starts doing it, it becomes useless. Copycats are so annoying. Whoever started this was a genius, and copycats ruin the ability of others to actually separate their own cars because of the proliferation of these. Evidence is by some people starting to use pool noodles because now their loofah just wasn’t distinctive enough to be able to tell.

    Copycats should be smart enough to use their own unique item to mark their vehicle.

      If only every vehicle had a unique series of numbers printed on the back (and usually front). Combine that with a general idea of where you left it and it shouldn’t be that hard.

      We can start another billboard race on top of already oversized vehicles.

      A lot of people carry a button that makes their car beep. That’s the fix. Or maybe people who can’t find a vehicle in a parking lot shouldn’t be driving multiple tons of metal around?

      If you use google maps or iphone maps it will remember the location where you parked, so you can use it as a GPS to find your car.
