Australian TV presenter Yumi Stynes has shared the "passive aggressive" note she found taped to her car windshield.

The 46-year-old, who shared a photo of the note on Instagram, returned to her car to find a stranger had some stern words about her parking technique.

"Winning at life today," Stynes captioned the note, which was written on a small notepad.

The note read: "Even if I tried really, really hard I don't know if I could park as selfishly as you have."

"Please consider others when you park," it concluded, with a question mark at the end.

As it turns out, Stymes wasn't too bothered to find the note. She admitted to being an "enthusiastic note writer" herself, but was unsettled by the lack of information.

"As an enthusiastic note writer myself I was pleased to find this *STICKY TAPED* to my windshield this morning but I have thoughts," she wrote.

"Ummmm....tell me how to improve? As boss feedback it's too vague. Selfish how? Selfish why? Liked the flourish at the end."

Some declared the media personality likely took up two spots when she parked her car, while others requested a photo of the offending vehicle.

"I am a note writer! This needs more feedback, I bet you took up 2 spaces. The fury!" former reality star Laura Byrne wrote.

"Love a bit of feedback," another said. "Please share a pic of the offending parking so we can assist in critical evaluation."

One added: "The first paragraph? Unnecessary."

Stynes' experience comes after another woman was faced with a similar, however much more cruel, scenario.

A woman in the UK shared a photo of a fat-shaming note she found on her car while at the supermarket.

The post read, "Fat people need to drive thin cars and be more polite. I hope you have an accident."

The woman posted a photo of the note and addressed the driver behind the letter in the caption writing, "Shame on you for making such derogatory remarks about another person, you must be a very sad and bad person for wishing that someone has an accident. Glad I don't know you."
