This morning I'm driving on a four lane road. I'm in the left lane with a school bus on the right and about one to two car lengths ahead of me. As I am closing the gap between me and the bus this beaten up old jalopy zips up on my right and comes dangerously close to the bus, just so it can get in front of me. I laid on the horn and flipped the guy off.
Two seconds later we are at a T in the road. He goes straight and so do I, because I live about three blocks in that direction and have to go that way.
The guy in the hoopty stops right at the corner when he crosses the street. I stopped beside him and started to say something like 'you need to watch it buddy.'
I had hardly started to speak before this crusty, disgusting waste of skin jumps out of his car with a pipe in his hand yelling "c'mon out here! I got sumthin to show ya!"
What the hell?! Are people really willing to seriously injure someone else and also to risk jail time just because they got the finger? If I make a mistake driving and someone gives me the finger I just take it, this guy was driving like a tool on purpose and got mad at me for letting him know.
Not only that, what makes a guy think he's so 'tough' by threatening an unarmed person with a weapon?
I can at least be happy knowing his future holds many sad nights because he won't have $0.75 to buy that beer to make his hands stop shaking. Followed someday by the crowning acheivement of being named "unidentified, toothless corpse found under local bridge."
Eff him and his multicolored hoopty lou!
