Any Boston resident that says they aren’t tired of the snow is a liar.

Any Boston resident that says they aren’t tired of the snow is a liar. In case you haven’t noticed, people have been diligently digging out their parking spots and have been reserving them with various household items. However, now it’s not just the tiresome efforts of shoveling out a spot that Bostonians are sick of, it’s that their clearly saved spots are being stolen.

Some begged for sympathy.

Others took a slightly more passive approach.

The snow is making everyone miserable, so stop making it worse by stealing parking spots!

All we ask for is a little respect.
