Confession time: I punched out a couple rental cars.

[j1mmyj4m]

This thread is setting me off - reminding me of all the asshattedness I've witnessed.

A couple of weeks ago I was sitting in my truck in a mall lot (same one I posted about above) while the missus went in to pick up a few things.

A guy pulled up in a newer Acura and pulled into the spot right beside me - and proceeded to crunch right into the car parked in front of him.  I sat in my truck and didn't say anything to him.  He simply got out of his car and walked into the mall like nothing happened without ever checking his or the other guy's bumpers.  

I was surprised but figured I'd give him the benefit of the doubt.  Maybe he would come out after shoppping and check for damage, maybe he had a photographic memory and got the plate # of the car he'd hit as he was pulling in (before hitting it) and he was having them page the owner in the mall...

About ten minutes later he came back out, hopped in the Acura and left without ever looking to see if there was any damage to either car.

While he was in the store I wrote his plate # down.  When he left without checking for damage I put a note on the windhsield of the car he'd hit.

So much anger...

So one time I'm riding down the highway.  This soccer mom drifts into my lane whilst cell talking- I wailed on the Stebel to no avail- she keeps coming.  That pissed me right off.  So I hammered past her, got on front of her, and proceeded to do a full panic stop.  Of course she totally rear-ended me, destroyed my bike, and I spent like a month in the hospital and another month in rehab.  

My monkey is typing this for me right now.

It was *so* worth the panicked look on her face when she got out of her car and realized she might have just killed me...

Today riding to work, I was stopped at a 4 way intersection.  Just as I was about to go a lady in a Prius rolled up slowed down to maybe 20mph, and then floored it through the intersection.

I was paying attention so nothing happened.  I shrugged, and let it go....

Prius pedalers are a piggy pod of prigs.

When some sh*t box fart canned POS driver has his stereo cranked and the window open, I liked to pull up alongside and then drop a gear and stay there.  When I had pipes, that is.  With the Strom and stock exhaust, no one notices.

I do the same thing next to drivers on the cell phone.

In 1997, I wore white leather after labor day.

La Honda, CA circa 1980: While northbound on CA-84 in La Honda, got stuck
behind two really, really, really, REALLY slow dudes yakking back and forth
while riding together on their Harley choppers. A long queue of cagers was
piling up behind me. Couldn't pass them due to oncoming traffic.

Was getting more and more frustrated when the first good twisties came into
view. Completely exasperated, I downshifted my black '80 CB750F, and blasted
right through in-btween their scoots which pissed them off. They tried to
catch-up with me, but there was NFW they could keep me in sight after
the first couple of curves.

That was the first and last time I pulled that stunt btw two motorcycles on
the same lane. Trust me, they were a couple of azzoles.

I almost killed myself one day. Out for a day ride with my fellow CB-1 owners, we had to enter the expressway.  I decided to pass my friend who was just slightly ahead of me as we exited the on ramp, so I pulled left to go past in the left lane. Only about 1 foot away (according to the people behind me) did I realize that I was about to become very intimate with a windstar vans right side.

It's that one time that you don't do the shoulder check that will get you.

Plus you look like a moron to your friends.

A guy in a truck bearing the name of his home remodeling business did that to me. Now, every so often, I call him and make arrangements for him to come out and give me an estimate at a bogus address. Getting him out on special days like holidays are especially fun.

They hate it when you do that...

Then again, maybe the guy was just desperate for biz, and wanted to make sure you saw his sign

I can't comment until after the court ruling...

I have a health issue that forces my system to chronically produce kidney stones.   I was having a bout with a stone one morning.  I had eaten breakfast and was sitting around watching the news.  I was greeted by the familiar stab from the flank area.  I knew what was going on as this was my 3rd stone in about as many years.  Kidney stones often make me really sick to my stomach when they happen.  I asked my wife to drive me to the ER as I wanted strong pain killers.  We piled in her car  and left to the hospital.  We were driving a county road at about 50 mph and there was some ass hat tailgating her very closely.  She was ranting about not wanting to deal with him and she was just trying to drive smooth to keep me from getting motion sick with my queezy stomach.  I felt my stomach do a flip flop....and I rolled the window down.  I often will projectile vomit when I have kidney issues.  I stuck my head out the window and vented my guts into the 50 mph wind.  My wife later informed me that the wind carried my breakfast back and spattered chunks of goo all over his car.  Needless to say he backed off.

Cheers
Mac.

 Just not the image I needed this morning.

I did that once, except the guy behind us didn't really deserve it.  Some friends and I had just left the '05 USC-Notre Dame game in South Bend.  I hadn't had anything to eat since breakfast, and drank nothing but water all day (so it wasn't overeating- or alcohol-induced), but that game was so physically and emotionally draining that by the time we got back to the car I was feeling horrible.  We had just gotten on the freeway and it hit me... I had time to say "I'm gonna be sick," and roll down the window before venting the contents of my stomach all over the car directly behind us.  I felt terribly guilty about it, as it was probably either a fellow USC fan, or a ND fan who just got the biggest sucker-punch of his life and then had an opposing fan yak on his car.  Sucks either way.

One time I took my dog to the beach with a friend of mine. While running in the surf, doggie lapped up some salt water. On the way home, from the back seat he put his head on my buddy's shoulder and as my friend scratched doggie's ears, doggy....

I confess to spending way too much time reading motorcycle forums at work. I'm probably stealing good 4 hours every day from my company during the last 6 months.
