That's not double parking. Double parking is when there are no parking spots available on the street, so you just stop your car in the right lane (so your car blocks the right lane, and whoever is legally parked to your right cannot get out), put it in park, get out, lock it up, and go about your business.

The folks who take up two parking spots annoy me as well. Also, the people who invent parking spots that block other drivers... Until a few months ago, I was in daily-parking hell at the commuter-rail station. People often invented parking spots that blocked the exit. Were they ticketed or towed? Nope. I had to play bumper cars on more than one occasion to get out.
