If You Were Stuck In Traffic Behind Me Yesterday ...


 
at the intersection of Pike Plaza and Lafayette Road in Indianapolis about 2:40 pm, then I owe you an apology. After reading my story, though, I hope you will understand why:

So, my husband and I were watching the Giants get their asses kicked, and decided that since we needed to get a few things from the store, that we would go ahead and take care of the errand, and be back by the time the 4:00 game came on.

Anyway, we pick up what we needed from the store, then stopped at the Meijer gas station to get gas. Having accomplished that, we head out of the gas station back out on Pike Plaza where I was going to make a left. There traffic was slightly more than I thought it would be, so I was sitting there lamenting the fact that I didn't go to Moller Road where there's a traffic light.

During the wait, this piece of shit Toyota pulls up next to us to make a right onto Pike Plaza. My husband and I are talking and shooting the bull, when I see the driver of the Toyota, a white male, look over at me at say "**** You!" and flip me off!! His windows were up, but it was totally obvious what he had said. I don't think he meant for me to see it. Maybe. I just think that when I turned my head to the right to check out oncoming traffic, I caught him running his mouth.

Immediately I'm thinking, "What the hell was THAT all about?" and I tell my husband what the guy said. I'm wondering if I cut the guy off somehow, or what, when suddenly, I remembered how a month ago a white guy in a big Chevy truck yelled out his window at me, "OBAMA SUCKS!!"; then I also remembered another guy yell out his car window at me, "**** OBAMA!!". Then it dawned on me - this is about the four Barack Obama magnets on my car, and that just totally pissed me off!!

So, instead of making the left, I took off to the right and caught up with the idiot. He and his wife, or whoever his female companion was (a Tammy Faye Bakker clone complete with false eyelashes and about a pound of Maybelline, with the cell phone glued to her head) were sitting in the left turn lane at the intersection of Pike Plaza and Lafayette Road - they were about the third car back. In the lane beside them, I pulled right up, stopped, let my window down, and asked the guy if there was some problem since he was cussing me out. At this point, she lets her window down, and they are both looking at me like I'm the crazy one!WTF?? So, I repeat myself, and the guy finally finds his balls and yells back, "BECAUSE YOU VOTED FOR OBAMA!!".

So I start chuckling (and yawl keep in mind we're at a light) and say, "You're right, I am an Obama voter, along with more than half of the population - what about it?" Anyway, it went back and forth for about 10 minutes, him spouting his Fox News talking points (Obama stole the election because he isn't a citizen and shouldn't have been running in the first place; Obama is selling our country to China; Obama wants to get rid of the 2nd amendment, blah blah blah), me countering with the truth and telling him how misinformed he is! My husband and I are yelling, the guy and his passenger were yelling, and then she said, "What did you gain from an Obama win anyway? Oh, I know what you gained! Another coupla hundred bucks added to your monthly food stamp allowance!".

All this time, cars are blowing their horns and because we have traffic completely stopped. Before long, we heard the blare of a Marion County Sheriff's vehicle; and my husband (who is always on me about my, shall we say, passion about politics, and that I should tone it down) was like, "Oh shit! We're getting ready to be arrested!!" The sheriff got out of his car and asked us what was going on? He asked if there had been some sort of collision? And I told him, "Only of political viewpoints" and he gave me a double-take and said, "Would you repeat that, please, ma'am?" And I said, "We've only had a collision of political points of view. My fellow citizen here has taken extreme exception to my exercising my constitutional right to vote to Barack Obama. He thinks that because I have these magnets on my car, that he has the right to harass me and verbally abuse me, and I took extreme exception to that, so here we are."

The sheriff waited a beat, looked at all of us for a few more seconds, and told us that he should give us tickets for impeding traffic, but that if we all went our separate ways, then he'd call it even. So that's what we did. I've got to tell you, though, that that was the angriest I've been in a long time. I was reading some of the stories on this site with varying degrees of disbelief that teabaggers have lost their tiny little minds over this election, and here it's happened to me. It still seems surreal.

My family is pressuring me to remove the magnets from my vehicle. And, to be honest, I planned to do just that before all this happened. (Two of them have been on my car since '08, then I recently added two more.) Now I feel like I want to leave them on my car for the next four years!!

I wonder if the sheriff was hiding in the bushes.  :rotf:

1. Very courageous and necessary. A story you won't ever forget.

Since I'm one to heavily load down the vehicle with political opinion and live in the South, I know what you mean.
I do.

Well to be fair how can one compete with the original Bouncy Ball tall tales, and whoever it was that said the cop jumped out of the bushes?

Well at least there was a cop.  Other than that, no conversion, no applause, so no bongs.

Real story is that the Duche did something stupid on the road and YES the guy wanted you to see his response.

Obama got 9 million less votes this election than he did in 08.

And a 10 minute traffic light? really?

I call people with Obama stickers all sorts of names while I am driving.  Not to them directly though.  Usually just to myself like, "OMG, would this f-ing Obama lover do the f-ing speed limit or just get out of my f-ing lane?"  You Obama supporters rarely do the speed limit in Las Vegas and it really pisses me off.

Time to pay some respect to the mole who composed this bouncy tale.

The screen name, "MightyAfrodite" is clever. About ten light-years more clever than anything an 0bamaite could ever conjure up.

The tale started with "So".

A cop jumped out of the traffic, which is close enough.

One bong for each point.

One negative bong for posting such a nice bouncy with only 113 posts, which is like asking for a tombstone.

Net score: two bongs.
