I won’t deny that I have lol.
Yep! My estranged brother-in-law, a real asshole! I can't stand that mofo!!! Had to sue him and his sorry ass son for trying to steal money from us.
Ha! Of course.
Check this bastard out!
I'm driving on the Causeway Bridge (longest bridge over water in the world, BTW) around Thanksgiving. I'm in the left lane of two lanes. I am going faster than the cars on the right, and a tad faster than the speed limit. One is foolish to go much faster because those particular tickets are really high.
This jackass is aggressively riding my ass, so I take my foot off the gas. Yes, passive aggressive way of saying "Go around me if you're in that much of a hurry dickhead." So, he WHIPS barely around me - within inches of my car - and I flip him off.
When he got in front of me and slowed down, I figured he was just playing a stupid game and I didn't care.
What I SHOULD have done is gotten into the other lane and kept going, but I wasn't bothered by his shenanigans.
What he did do, is slow down even more and finally came to a stop. I was stunned into stupidity. We are on a bridge with speed limit of 65!
Then, he actually backed up to my car so I couldn't go around him. I'm telling you, my mind went completely blank! When I slammed on my brakes when he stopped, my phone fell to the floor, and my brain wouldn't even engage to think "Pick up the phone, dial 911, take a picture of him or his plate, video his crazy ass" or ANYTHING. It was freaking surreal, I tell you. So, he gets OUT and starts walking to my car on this bridge.
WHY didn't I put my car in reverse at that time? I am mystified by how badly I froze -- so completely unlike me. He walked back to my car, casually leaned on my hood above my side mirror and gave me some kind of lecture (through my closed window) about not being in the left lane - those are the only couple of words I remembered - then he casually walked back to his car.
And STILL -- I didn't have the brain power to take a picture, call the police or anything.
It scared me, but more than that, it really fucked with me that I FROZE and didn't do ANYTHING I should have done - starting with going around him, then backing up while he was walking, getting plate, etc.
That was the last time I flipped somebody off, but that doesn't mean it will be the last. Just maybe not on that bridge.
On a daily basis. Of course with the circle I run in it's like our secret handshake...
Yes. Frequently. I'm sure I've done it well over a couple hundred times. It's not necessarily an unfriendly gesture, either. It can be, but among friends it can also be a greeting of sorts.
Yeah, I've even flipped my boss off in jest. He laughs, I laugh.
Ah - the one finger gesture - This is the US 'flip off" Get it? Got it
Yep. Occasionally, rude people get to me...
You and me both.
Yes, of course I drive.
Oh, yes, those maniacs can be the freaking worst.
On the wrong day I might be one of them. @EmeraldJewel
Yes, I flipped off my Xian teacher behind her back and some mother saw. I got in school suspension. All because we weren't allowed to play 'secular music" in the classroom.
"Secular' music? Would this include Billy Joel's Only the Good Die Young - Catholics took exception to Billy's critique of Catholicism (Possibly due to Billy being Jewish - that wouldn't help him much) They even sent death threats but Billy played Boston anyway - and didn't get killed
Lol that’s funny. I would have done the same thing. I flipped off my older sister when I was 11 one time because she pissed me off.
Does a bear $**T in the woods?
Is the pope catholic?
Does Trump lie?
Of course I've flipped people off, lol.
