    Tricky

  2. Quagmire says:

    HAHAHA, someone was drunk when they did this….

  3. David says:

    I’m not sure I get it… is it just that that’s the most ridiculously overcomplicated and ambiguous parking lot ever devised by man, or is there another joke in there?

  4. Mookie says:

    Uh oh, I accidenty the lines…

  5. talldude88 says:

    I parked riiiiight there…

  6. Black Shoes says:

    Simply astounding!

    The lines and colours! I really understand what this artist is trying to say!

  7. Wormulon says:

    this is clearly a park for the hover car
    duh

  8. Major Malfunction says:

    Poster never parking a boat trailer FAIL!

  9. AsTheCrowFlies says:

    Welcome to the 2008 Drivers Education Parking Course.

  10. griffinlady says:

    So… I guess the parking attendant aircraft-carrier deck flashlight signal guys who run the place are camera shy?

  11. Mookie says:

    It’s the Escher parking lot.

  12. Neutral says:

    Hide & Seek for 2D ppl

  13. AKNursie says:

    If you put your nose right next to the picture, try not to focus, and move it away from your face slowly, you can see the FAIL appear magically before your eyes !!!one!!!bbq

  14. Vortex says:

    They actually represent planes. Its America’s battle plan for Iraq.
    *Due to financial crisis they had to write it in a mexican parking lot.

  15. Apam says:

    Luckily that parking lot is not congested with cars.

  16. missionpants says:

    Schizophrenic Parking Valet WIN

  17. jesus christ says:

    mendzlu pendzlu ja przepraszam
    ja cię chujem moim zraszam

  18. Arcane says:

    It’s the Matrix.

  19. Tomical says:

    SOMEONE phoned it in.

  20. Achi says:

    My God, it’s full of stars.

  21. Oral-Me says:

    It’s a UK-supermarket “Mother & Child” parking area.

  22. GladIwokeUp says:

    I think they got the instructions for painting parking lot lines mixed up with a tidal currents ebb and flow map and just assumed it was right, you know what they say about assuming, ass-u-me

  23. vervain says:

    Not so much a parking fail as a parking LOT fail, isn’t it?

  24. TheCake says:

    Not even that. What happened is clear. They first had the “straight” markings. Then they tarred over the straight markings and made new diagonal ones.

    But the tar is flatter and shinier than the asphalt, so from this particular angle, you see the sky reflecting in the tar over the old markings, which is why they seem to be sky blue.

    This is why none of the actual parked cars are incorrectly parked. Because from down there, it’s perfectly clear and not confusing at all.

    Still funny, though.

  25. Llllllll. says:

    …the Charles Ives Memorial Park.

  26. Lllll. says:

    …whoops! Signed on with the wrong identity.

  27. seven says:

    I’ve seen this before. It’s actually a training lot for the painters who paint roads and lots :P That’s why it’s crisscrossed with different markings and such.

    • Cloral says:

      Yeah, they’re learning how to confuse the crap out of people.

    • Pedro says:

      No, this is actually a parking lot that was remodeled, and the old lines painted with black paint. Why I know that? I live a few miles (well, more like some, it’s not right next door) of it!

      It’s located at Câmara de Lobos, an city located in an island belonging to Portugal (that country right next to Spain). And the fact it looks do crazy is that black asphalt pain reflects the sun quite well… Use the right angle, and you get this.

  28. Al says:

    Distressingly logical suggestion- the white lines, on the diagonal, are for parking. The light blue lines T-shaped lines I reckon could be for a weekly (or thereabouts) market.

    There might even be signs to point this out.

    The few people using the carpark certainly don’t seem confused.

  29. Welcome to WTF! HQ. Please park in the special WTF parking lot, located to the right of the building. Enjoy your visit!

  30. SaNdCrAwLeR says:

    Arrrr

    actually, this is in a town close to the city that I live in :D

    it’s in Câmara de Lobos, Madeira Island (Portugal)

    actually you barely notice the old lines when you’re in the park itself (been there loads of time…) you only notice it in this picture due to the fact that they’re reflecting some light (the paint we used to use here actually helped in preserving the asphalt underneath

    also… I recommend visiting the place, awesome drinks (poncha and nikita) are served in the nearby bars ;)

  31. mejrm says:

    “you get a ticket for triple parking…”

  32. phonono says:

    What a nice parking lot to destroy.
    Having a private car = automatic fail, here it’s automatic EPIC fail.

  33. noobaxce says:

    what a gay fail.

  34. Kara says:

    Wow, comments are funnier than the fail.
    Group WIN!

  35. LOLsteve says:

    HOW DO YOU DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT?!??!?!?!?¿?!?!?!!?!??!

  36. pyro says:

    you gotta park inside of the white lines… if you so much as TOUCH one with your wheel you get a $2000 fine. Oh and it’s the only parking lot for this store and within a half mile radius… NO PARKING ON THE STREET. Have a nice day. : )

  37. drb says:

    I remember when a parking lot near me repainted the lines without painting over the old lines, which wouldn’t have been TOO bad, if they hadn’t also changed the direction that the rows were angled, and the direction of the arrows. So you had some people following the old arrows and parking the wrong direction, then getting blocked in by people parking the right direction… urg. Especially during the big yearly parking lot sale, when people were pulling in every which way to grab the bargains. Fail sale.

  38. -RJ- says:

    Fu*k! This is the city where i live!! ahah… my house is just a half mile away from that place…

  39. Verfallsdatum says:

    I’m just curious, has anyone an idea of where this could be? South america? I would say Italy, but I’m not sure..

  40. -RJ- says:

    Madeira island mofo! Camara de Lobos <– google it…

  41. Iwashere says:

    With my luck, this is where I’m gonna have my driving test. :(

  42. Bullseye732 says:

    hehe I live in that island and I can say our civil engineers are great, not! ^^

  43. Bullseye732 says:

    Btw for those who wanted to know where this is, it’s a small Portuguese island named Madeira better known for being Cristiano Ronaldo birthplace >.>

  44. JohnnyRaincloud says:

    SOMEONE was a little tipsy when they did that.

  45. SillyNilly says:

    So… is there some sort of weird algorithm to parking there?

  46. Richard Geary says:

    “WARNING – If you park outside a designated parking bay you will be clamped and fined £100 for release.”

  47. JohnnyRaincloud says:

    I just realized that like, a million people (myself included) just bagged on Sean Penn for being a jack ass. And I don’t feel very bad about it either…hmm…

  48. Jen says:

    WTH? This is my picture. I just took it last month in Maderia Portugal.
