I disagree, unless you know for a fact that the person that parked there left 4’ in front and was touching OPs car in back. Maybe they were actually being considerate taking this parking spot instead of double parking, or partially blocking a curb cut or crosswalk. It could have been a tight space and the person did a 14-point parking maneuver to wiggle in, I don’t know. Parking is a valuable resource and if it’s in short supply, I think people should absolutely squeeze in, especially if there is not any damage. OP was able to get out, so it took an extra 30-60 seconds. What’s the harm? Probably spent more time making a post about it and responding to all the comments.

I don’t live in Boston anymore but I did the same thing. My town worked with a local energy supplier to set fixed rates through 2024. Clean Energy Choice sent a mailer basically mimicking the language and I opted in to their service instead of the local towns. I noticed my energy bill went way up (doubled while the usage stayed about the same). Luckily it was only a few months so I fixed it, but definitely felt like I got scammed.

Update: After switching, my supply cost went from $0.328 per kWh to $0.143 per kWh.
