Thread: "Sleepers" in car parks.

"Sleepers" in car parks.
Can anyone tell me why it is that when you're in a shopping centre car park, people sit in their cars for ages waiting for normal people (like me
) to either walk past or try and park, before they suddenly decide to reverse out of their parking spots.
Who are these people? What are they doing in their cars? Do they ever get out of their cars? Why do they only leave their parking spots when it will inconvenience others?
My brother calls them "sleepers" who only come into play when there is activity around them.

I have a theory that to get happy in this life you need to steal someone else's jollies (aka jolly-robbing).
Since there is a limited amount of jolliness to go around, you must tick off someone else so you can get theirs and be happy yourself.
Some people are brutal about it, others have a "knack". These are the ones who smile inanely at you while you are shouting and giving the finger. You lose more jollies to these guys and gals than anyone else.

They actually do leave their parking spots, but only to drive to the end of the only straight piece of road for 50km in any direction, and wait for you coming from the other end, having just followed a clapped out Toyota Corolla towing a 28 ft Chesney over the last 20 km of winding road.
