Let's say you are waiting for a customer to pull out of the parking lot, and Jo schmoe pulls up and honks at you, and then proceeds to take the space you so long waited for? Do you argue, give the finger, key the car? Just go away in peace?

Or do you honk to let the world know Jo took your parking space?

Ha...!
I always park in the "new car section" (the farthest position from the store), not to preserve my car (which is filthy, and has a ding on the rear that was NOT my fault), but to get that little bit of exercise, as well as an easy way out of the lot!

I usually throw my hands up in the air and yell "Yeah sure no problem!!" Like the other driver would ever be able to hear me through my windshield. I'm not usually an agressive person but I'm not quite sure what happens when I get into a parking lot. I get so angry. I will drive around for 10-15 minutes looking/waiting for a good spot, right in the front. Hello.....am I really that dumb. By the time i've driven around that long I could've parked at the furthest spot and walked to the store. That's not to say I couldn't use the excerise anyway.

First of all i would ask were you pulled over to the side where the guy could get around and have your blinker on? If so then that was proper and this person was a jerk and could be potentially dangerous. I wouldn't mess with someone so rude and obvious as this could mean a fight and or death. A parking space isn't worth it. I might have asked him if he saw me waiting and how could he be so rude as to take advantage of this situation. But with all that said, go away in peace.

No big deal... there are far too many truly important things to worry about in life than getting a good spot at the mall. Besides, the further way you park, the more calories you burn hehehe.

don't key the car, that's vandalism, but honk like hell because obviously Jo is a huge jerk. If he gets out of his car (which is probably a huge SUV or a hummer) and is acting confrontational, I recommend that you headbutt him.
