uh..yah...sorry, not my thing... LOL

LOL, too true, Bungleau. My friend LadyZ actually said something that I think also is true, people like that are usually in a hurry and mad at the world even when they have no place to go or no reason...so I think I'll just stay out of ms "I can run you over because I waited TWO minutes for you to move"s way....

I'm willing to bet she's hit a few people/cars/lamposts and will probably run over a few more before they take her license away.

A couple of good practical jokes, assuming you know the person's name:

1) Calling for a tow for her jeep, getting them to tow it to a local garage saying it won't start and claiming you can't wait because you have to go to a meeting. Bonus fun if she left her car doors open, and you can lift the hood to remove the coil wire.

2) Reporting her car stolen.

3) Filling her gas tank with water. (make sure you do this in another parking lot)

4) Put a dead skunk in her back seat.

5) Remove all the valve cores from her tires, so they not only go flat but they can't be re-inflated until new valve cores are installed.

6) Pour a bottle of the cheapest perfume you can find into the air intake at the base of the windshield.

If you have mechanical skills, and you have some time, you can do things like rig the horn to blast as long as the car is running or jam the parking brake on.


Mechanics with a wild imagination can be very vindictive.

Because two wrongs often become a right. It's like an alchemist's dream...

Around these parts, it's not really okay to run someone over after two minutes. Around here, the "grace period" is something like thirty seconds, or maybe 45 if you're dealing with a small child. People are really insane sometimes.

LOL, while the thought of some of those things is amusing, I plan to ignore this woman and figure that one day she will (if she hasn't already!) hit something or someone in her impatience. Of course why one would risk injuring another human being to get to work a few minutes earlier.... totally beyond me!

I'm of the opinion now that she was trying to scare me or get back at me for not 'moving fast enough'. Sheesh... probably should have pressed assault charges on her...but I figure she's going to be her own worst enemy with an attitude like that.

Illumina, wow, I live in a slow area then.. 30 seconds, huh?

Yup. We want our coffee and we want it now, and we will use any language, gestures, and attacks we need to get it. Kill or be killed, as it were.

I've done the city, I've done northern NJ. It's a little-known fact that they're really the same place, when all is said and done.

Now, here's something fun. I'm looking at graduate schools in both PA and London. I'm wondering how on earth I'm going to adjust to this. I once went to Massachusetts and was shocked when I was walking through a parking lot and a car didn't try to run me over. Crazy stuff!

A couple years ago I was picking up a buddy at his apartment complex for work. There were two guys standing in the middle of the entrance (this was about 6:30 am) who refused to move. So the mighty Dodge moved them. They were unhappy I went and parked, for some reason they didnt want to fight. Maybe it was the sledgehammer I puuled out? [img]tongue.gif[/img]
