Anagram 07/01/23 9:36:39 PM #1:	I have never seen this episode, but I remember someone talking about it about 2004, so its at least that old. All I know is that it has a plot or subplot where a character gets a really good parking space, then refuses to move his or her car for days even when it becomes inconvenient because they know theyll never get such a good spot ever again. --- Not changing this sig until I decide to change this sig.

Robazoid 07/02/23 4:29:22 PM #19:	My first thought was from Seinfeld too, specifically George regarding his father Jerry: What about your father's car? George: No, no, no. Out of the question. I was over there today. He's got the good spot in front of the good building in the good neighbourhood. I know he's not gonna wanna move. Jerry: Are you serious? George: You don't know what that spot means to him. Once he gets it, he doesn't go out for weeks. Jerry: How about this, you put your car in the good spot, that'll hold the good spot in front of the good building, and we can get the good car! George: Good thinking!
