This is probably an urban legend, but still good:

A guy in (Chicago, Pittsburgh, Boston) spent hours shoveling out a space in front of his house, and walked the block to the place where his car was parked. In the time that he got his car back to his newly shoveled space, someone else had taken it.

He had had it. After thinking a few minutes, he got out his garden hose, and starting filling the errant car with water. Did I mention that it was well below freezing?

After filling the car with water, and watching it slowly freeze to the parking space, he left a note: "You wanted this space? Fine - it's yours until spring!"

I don't care if it's an urban legend or not, it's a great story!
Now why did I think of that last year??!! We had some wicked snow and stupid me didn't fill up on asthma medicine. So after CVS opened 3 days after I ran out of meds, my roommates and neighbors helped me get my car out and to the pharmacy (while I had an asthma attack trying to shovel). I came back, and there was someone in my spot. I went off on him. Then came out later in the night and drizzled apple juice all over the sides of the car and on the roof.
Freaked him out nicely.
