You mistakenly believe that these people actually have that in their consciousness. Lots of people don't even think twice about what they put in their mouths, or the trash they put into the world. How many people do you see carrying around those damned plastic water bottles?

Obviously, it belongs to the young girl presently using the ATM. I am being kind by saying this girl is quite hefty.
She seems to be at the ATM for a good 10 minutes while I'm waiting patiently next in line. I can't believe someone is so lazy and idiotic enough to leave their car running and wasting fuel and polluting our environment. Don't you read the newspapers? Don't you watch the news? Do you have any idea what's going on in the world? People are fighting wars and dying on oil rigs for the fuel that runs your big clunker. I'm like *this* tempted to jump in the SUV and drive it around the parking lot just to teach her a lesson.
But, before I do, she finishes, and then I'm able to step up to use the ATM. While I'm going through the menus, I notice her get in the SUV and proceed to go through her money and papers. The car is still parked and running.
I finish, and while I go to my car, I see this same girl exit her car and go back to the ATM. Again, her car is still parked and running! She was still at the ATM when I pulled out of the parking lot.
Does anyone know where I can purchase one of those toy guns that shoots suction cup darts with message flags on them? I would like to get a bunch that say "Idiot!" on the flags so I can use it to target all the Nimrods I come across on a daily basis.
It's remarkable that she wasn't parked in a handicap space as well.

No, but if you can come up with a drawing I know a guy who knows a guy who can make plastic injection-mold parts and we can order a few thousand and go into business.
