Call and have them towed. If it's a neighbor whose car you recognize I guess knock on the door first.
Misread the airport bit. If it's not super urgent I'd probably wait 15 minutes or so first.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
How many apartments in the building? If fewer than 6, I would knock and ask someone if it's their car and can they move it?
If it's more than that, I honk my horn for five minutes and if no one comes out, call the tow company.

If there are few enough apartments, I knock on neighbors' doors. After that, I call a tow truck. I never park so as to block anybody. Even if I'm just running in somewhere for a second.
The person I'm blocking has no idea when I'll be back. It's on the blocker, not the blockee.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
First I would look around to see if anyone seemed to belong to the car. Then I would knock on the door closest to the car in question and ask if anyone inside owned it. If that didn't work, I would get in my car and lay on the horn until the car owner came back. (keeping in mind my car horn is like, "meeep!")

If you're lucky, four burly strangers will happen along and you can ask them to pick up the offending car and move it out of the way.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I have the emails and phone numbers of everyone in my 12-unit apartment complex, so I'd probably try texting and emailing first. There's sort of a towing czar in one of the units, so if I didn't hear from anyone in 5 minutes, I'd see if he was home and if he knew who the car belonged to. If he didn't, it would be towing time, because he knows all the residents' cars and only residents are supposed to park in our section of the lot.

Why do I always forget that rule?
Because sometimes people are WRONG ON THE INTERNET.

Oh Aims, I know the feeling, and I feel like I'm itching for a fight today.
Just trying to roll my eyes and move on.
