I gotta remember that one. Fortunately, I only get, "aren't you cold?" when I'm driving with the top down & it's 45 degrees.

this same thing happend to me once, a while ago in college. except i didnt throw my WTF hands up. I actutally made it a point to follower her for the next 5 miles, pulling next to her and staring her down with a blank expression every chance i could get. After about 3 or 4 miles, she started freaking out, blowing stop signs, red lights, swerving everywhere... trying to lose me. I stopped following and staring at her when she pulled into the police station, running out of the car. Im sure she wont be flipping anyone off any time soon


People flip me off all the time, but I probably deserve it.

every night i get the dumb****s thinking im flashing the headlights when my car bounces....dumbasses, one dude whipped off the road then got back behind me an followed me into my neighborhood before turning around and leaving...glad he went out of his way. The best is when you flash the brights back at them though and they realize how bright we can make them when their whole car lights up.

I have to admit, alot of times i'm the one greeting people with my middle finger. But it's not like they don't deserve it.

Just today some guy (40 ish) pulls out in front of me from a side road in his old camry at the last possible second. I have to literally stomp on my breaks to avoid a collision. He then continues on doing about 13 or 14 mph for the next mile, on purpose. There are alot of jelous people in this world. So naturally when he finally decided to turn, I zoom around him with the horn in the on position, and I wave, american style

haha she probably thought you was stalking her....and the only problem I have with some people so far is at night when they think I am high beaming them and they flash me....so I flash them back to make them realize how big of an idiot they are.....

I was driving through town one time and these two teenage girls on the side of the road just decide to give me the finger for no apparent reason at all. Wasn't speeding or doing anything. I guess some people just hate you because you have something they don't.

i've gotten yelled at from a couple of occassions before to slow down, though it's usually after i take a hard turn at ~25mph. i figure, the S can handle it pretty easily and i'm still within the speed limit.

As I go by the MDX driver (middle 40's female) lets me know that I'm an asshole. Now the strange thing is she's got her name and phone number on the side of her car, as she's a realtor. My first reaction was to get the number and call her just to let her know I'm truly not an asshole. Then common sense kicked in.

"You give c*** a bad name." and sped off.

Sure it wasn't the most diplomatic thing to do, but she had it coming.
God, what an idiot!!! Well, you don't even need a GED to sell Real Estate, so that goes for her intelligence level. Hell, have a little fun, give her broker a call and tell him what a liability his agent is to his company.
