Three assholes in a Lexus.
It has been a long, tiring week. My wife and I this afternoon driving on the freeway through Sacramento to have diner with a dear friend and looking forward to relaxation and comradeship.
Up beside us pulls a new Lexus with three young (mid 20s) men(?). Driver honks several times points to my bumper, gives a "thumbs down" gesture and pulls ahead.
What the hell? The bumper has a "Veterans for Obama" decal from the last election. For this sin this asshole figures to harass me at speed on the freaking freeway? Does he not like Obama? Does he not like veterans? Does he dislike old people? (my white beard and pony tale are a dead give away).
After stewing for a minute I did catch up to him and give him a questioning shrug. "What the **** is your problem"? Again I get the "thumbs down". That earned him and his laughing asshole cohorts a simultaneous finger from both my wife and myself.
Okay. They are young. I understand that. I was young once myself..... over forty years ago in South East Asia.
Okay. They have the weekend off from shuffling papers and sucking other peoples money (as a guess) and are on their way to Tahoe to gamble or ski (another guess) or whatever the **** young assholes in Lexus do.
But why hassle me on the flipping freeway? What kind of cowardly bully crap is that?
Someday, perhaps soon, they will bully someone who might be carrying HIS Smith and Wesson IN the car. Then they might learn the true relation of stupidity and the Darwinian theory. I won't cry and the world will have lost nothing of value.
Sorry for the rant but I just had to vent a bit.

1. So you let a car full of
brats ruin your drive? I hope you didn't let it ruin your dinner. At most I might of shaken my head the way a mom does when they see a kid doing something stupid. Let it go. The only people it is bothering is you, unless you are making your wife suffer too.

5. Nah. They were just being practical.
If it had just been an Obama sticker, they might have done more. But the "Veteran" part made them at least *consider* the idea that this car might have a firearm inside of it somewhere. Conservatives are notorious cowards. They only directly bully people when they feel like there's no risk involved.

14. Let's see. They passed you. They gave a thumbs down. They kept going.
You caught up with them. You had to increase your speed to do that. But they hassled you on the freeway?
They were gone. You chased them. They made you do it. That's almost like the Terry Jones book burning excuse. The book burning made the Afghan group behead people.
How easy it is to blame other people for stuff.

Give it a break. You don't know how you'd react.
Geez...sometimes DU is stupid.

Let's see... Vietnam War creds, California, bragging about shooting someone.
It's TomInTib.
my white beard and pony tale are a dead give away
Check out the post number, and did TiTty boi ever brag about having a '67 MGB?
Funny, I don't know of any former military who sport pony TAILS, let alone pony tales. At least not any former military who didn't get shitcanned at some point.
Like I said, shitcanned.

I agree with Chris, if TiT is back at the DUmp MGB67deux fits the profile. TiT claimed to have have owned or driven just about every exotic sports car you can name, he lives in the general Sacramento/SF hellhole and has a little gay ponytail and a little gay beard. He's a wannabe veteran that wants everyone to think he was the idea behind the Rambo movies. He also has the same bombastic "I'm right you're a ****ing idiot" attitude that Little Tommy always took when he was questioned by the other idiots in the hive. It will take some further review to make a definite call but I predict we have a winner.There was a rumor he was back last week....I would almost guarantee that is him!
Let's see... Vietnam War creds, California, bragging about his gun collection.
It's TomInTib.
Nah. There was a wife in it.
DAT, TiTiy Boi's entire rep was based on a lie. Why stop now?

Most guys I know (like me) can't stand to grow long hair anymore.
Include me in that as well.
Is there anything worse than a long gray snarly ponytail?Maybe, but the ponytail is up there in contention. It makes me sick that every time there's any publicity for the Viet Nam Memorial, you always see a bunch of winos in forty-year-old fatigue jackets, with those greasy, gray ponytails. It's like the press rounds them up from underneath bridges in the area, to be in the shot. The patriots who sacrificed their lives in that conflict are dishonored by being associated with the booze- and drug-addled losers who are continually portrayed as representative of Viet Nam veterans. I guess it's just another way for the press to attack America.
Is there anything worse than a long gray snarly ponytail? I mean on a guy. If it's a woman, she should finish the job and make it into a bun.
There was guy like that in front of me at the Taco Bell. Had on a tshirt with a spotted owl on it, and birkenstocks cladding his filthy feet. He then asked the hapless order taker a million questions about the sustainability and fair-tradedness of the menu and somesuch. I almost twisted his head off.
Sorry, Doc. Any military vet with a pony tail AND MALE GENATALIA.Just checking ;)
And as to others, I'm not saying they don't exist, but they're damned rare. Most guys I know (like me) can't stand to grow long hair anymore.
Just a little jumpy as I have been dealing with certain military wives that think that because I have only been married to DH for two years now I know nothing about how the military works. Makes me want to smack them upside the head with my DD214.
I'm not going to give anyone more reason to damage my car.
Totally agree, because don't you damage your car yourself half the time? Always crashing into things.
Yes. Letting other damage it first takes the fun out of it for me. I want me cars damaged by me and me alone.
I haven't told anyone what I did to my last truck yet...some other time perhaps. Or the Chevy Optra I wrecked a few years ago.
:popcorn:
I wasn't condoning vandalizing other property, genius.

You should, I know my other half did.The CMC's wife is also a vet so I have backup. :-)
