The ironing would be more delicious if the good citizen was carjacked while calling the police by the same thugs. But hey, we are all just playing hypothetical scenarios here anyways.

Then, they used the hijacked car to run the OP off the road and "bust some caps in his ass." As long as we're playing...let's take it to its logical end.

I don't care about fashion sense in the least, but jumping in front of a car is just dumb.

Although something equally dumb I saw while driving home one night: the highway off-ramp leading to my house is one of those in which it loops around over the highway. This particular looping has fairly sharp turns, and--when combined with the trees on the side of the road--leads to essentially no forward-looking visibility until you're about 10-15 feet from each turn.

As I was coming home, I made my way around the second turn, and was quite surprised to see a man walking with his two children IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. Of course, as soon as he heard my tires squeel after I slammed on the breaks, he immediate grabbed one of the children and jumped into the median. I still wonder what exactly was going through the guy's mind that would lead him to think what he was doing was safe.

while it sounds similar, op's profile says Missouri.

Yeah, because everyone posts legit information on the Internet. 🙂

true. er...false?

i'm not saying his profile is right, just that the 2 dont match.

since the op last visited this thread 2 hours ago, and that news story was made several hours before that, i'm inclined to believe the 2 incidents are unrelated.

So the night before last I was heading home from work at 11:00pm. As I approach the on-ramp for the highway, I merge into the lane leading towards said on-ramp. I notice that there are two guys standing on the right side of the road by the barrier and figure they're just smoking and talking. As I get right to the turn, these guys jump right out in front of my car, no warning. Naturally, I hit the breaks and honked my horn. Both of these guys stare at with huge ass gold grill-filled grins and the shorter of the two points at me as if he were shooting at me with his finger and laughs.

At this point I'm thinking that I should have just hit the idiots and saved society from two more pieces of trash, but I hold my composure, wait for the guys to get out of the way and start moving forward again. Just as I begin to start up again, one of the guys jumps back and kicks my front wheel. At this point I'm just plain pissed, so I floor it and slam open my door (old chevy cavalier we're waiting on to die) as I pass him. I check my rear view on my way down the on-ramp and his friend is laughing his ass off. I hit the moron pretty hard. I hope he feels it in the morning.

Ugh, I can't stand these thug kids with their pants at their knees... they piss me off.

You're bragging about road raging and assaulting someone with a car, admitting to a hit-and-run?

Good lord. I hope he files a police report about it and someone on this forum mails a copy of your post to the local police department :roll:

People like you should not be behind the wheel.
