PEOPLE have been left totally baffled by a passive-aggressive car note accusing a driver of being ‘entitled’.
Not only did the note slam the driver for parking over two spaces, but it also accused the Tesla owner of being ‘rude’ and ‘oblivious’ too.

In a short clip shared on social media, a young woman from the US admitted that she was ‘confused’ about the note that was left on her vehicle after a day of being parked in a car park.
She said: “So I just got in my car and I saw that there was a little piece of paper on my car.”
The artist and business owner explained that she thought it was ‘weird’ that there was a piece of paper on her white car, which was parked in her apartment complex car park.
The content creator then showed off the handwritten note, which was scribbled using a blue pen.
The note read: “Do you feel entitled to two spaces?
“Or just rude, oblivious?”
But underneath this message, someone else had added their two pence.
Written with a thick, black pen, the second part of the note said: “Learn to please a woman, then try again.”
The woman then gave her followers a close-up look at how she had parked her vehicle.
She explained that when she went to reverse into the space, the car next to her was parked over the line.
As a result, she then had to park slightly over the other white line of the bay.
She questioned: “The way that parking works, I then had to park a little bit over, so yeah ok, it looks like I’m the a*****e that parked, but also is that taking up two spaces?”
The driver then pointed to other empty spaces in the car park, as she added: “You also have like three others over there.
“But the only reason why I parked not in the middle, was because the person who was previously parked here was parked over the line, so therefore I had to park over there. That’s how parking lots work.”
But the TikTok user wasn’t too fussed by the note, as she jokingly concluded: “It’s pretty funny – we love apartment living.”
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @zenspiredesigns, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 88,800 views.

Whilst another added: “Why is it so bothersome that the second person thinks only a guy could drive that car.”
