Channel 4 reports nobody was injured, but up to ten cars were damaged, which must mean it was a pretty big chunk of ceiling that collapsed, given the way Atrium customers tend to park.

It's a good thing I rarely have any reason to go to the Atrium Mall, because otherwise one day I would just go berserk in the garage and key everything in sight, and even as I sat in the lockup at the Newton Police Department waiting for my wife to bail me out (assuming she wouldn't let me just stew there overnight), I wouldn't feel the least bit sorry.

What makes the above scene (captured this very afternoon) so special is that when we got back from the mall, Left Masshole had left and a New Masshole parked exactly the same way:

Apparently, the Massholes who take up two or three spaces under the Atrium Mall continue their arrogant ways once they go upstairs. Margalit reports two incidences of obnoxious Newtonians (or Newton wanna-bes?) within the span of 10 minutes at the same elevator, including:

... When the elevator came, the man literally pushed everyone aside so he could get in first. I motioned for the stroller lady and kids to get one next, then the older woman got on, and the Girl and I got on last. The rude man decided to push me out of the way so he could push his button instead of just asking me to do it for him. OK. So he's a jerk. I'm not going to get up in his face for that.

But when the elevator arrived on our parking level, he literally shoved the Girl out of his way to get off the elevator first. Um, from the back of the frigging elevator because he had gotten ON first. ...

Sarah discovers why people park on the street a half mile away from the Atrium Mall rather than trying to park in its garage:

... As I decsended into the bowls of the garage, I was struck first with how many spaces there WOULD have been, if people had deigned to park within the lines. I saw Lexus sedans and BMW convertibles sprawled out lazily among 2 or sometimes 3 spaces. Hummers parked so that their front tires were in the space but the rest of the hulking mass was sticking out several feet, creating intermittent traffic jams as two lanes of cars looking for parking tried to negotiate past. ...
