Dear BDad - I feel your pain. I call these people ‘the righteous indignators’. It’s not so much the being flipped off, it’s the being flipped off in combination with them being clearly so wrong. Twice now, I have suggested that the people doing 60 kms in the fast lane on the motorway, should perhaps move over, by flicking my lights or pointing to the other lane and yet, with ‘righteous indignatrion’, they flip me off. One in particular, after I had passed on the inside lane, suddenly found the speed limit of 100, and deliberately cut me off! I also remember a time when I was trying to cross at the ped. crossing, but a car of teens happened to be parked over half of the crossing. All I did was hold my arms out, indicating that I couldn’t walk through them, and what did I get but masses of verbal abuse (and righteous indignation) for suggesting that they shouldn’t have blocked the way. What is the world coming to? ---

Getting to this thread a bit late, but I just want to commend you for having the good manners & taste to throw quality snack food. ---

> [@MelCthefirst](#): > > Dear BDad - I feel your pain. I too feel your pain. Rounding a corner a few weeks ago, there’s some :wally ambling into the road looking the wrong way, while the pedestrian light is on red. I slam on my brakes, squeal to a halt, and give a quick toot on the horn in case he’s hearing impaired. His response? “Fuck you, bitch!” Wish I’d have had a big tub of Snyders of Hanover Jalapeño Pieces with me. From now on, the missile of choice for the discerning driver. Great rant. ---

Awwwwwww…Poor **Bruce\_Daddy**. 😃 I’ve lost my cool at that particular intersection many times as well. I spent five minutes laying on my horn there once. NOTHING makes me angrier than people who block intersections People so desperate to move 50 feet that they prevent everyone else from moving. :mad: ---

Not to be a killjoy (great rant, BTW), but I was nearly killed a couple of weeks ago by a road raging driver, so I’d like to interject a comment that chasing some assmaggot driver down and railing against their inability to drive is _not_ the best idea in the world, no matter how richly they may deserve it. (Yeah, I know **BD** didn’t do that, but the thought did cross his mind, and no, that’s _not_ how I nearly got killed.) ---

> [@Ass For A Hat](#): > > I can live with an occasional outburst that includes the hurling of jalapeno based snacks. If you’d have thrown the Snyder’s of Hanover Honey Mustard and Onion Sourgough Hard Pretzel Pieces, that would be another story. That’s unacceptable under any circumstance. On the contrary, it’s entirely mandatory. You see, sourdough is supposed to be doughy, as in soft and chewy. Once it is hard (as in > [@](#): > > Snyder’s of Hanover Honey Mustard and Onion Sourgough Hard Pretzel Pieces), that means it is stale and good for nothing _except_ throwing away, preferably in the general direction of a whore. 😃 ---

So here I was about a year ago sitting at [this](http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?ovi=1&zoom=9&mapdata=5u7zQrYT8FBrULE7S4nG630UpGPtOchOyFOwX%2f%2fUUZKb%2b9LFmIS245TtKIca1msSVthoyyICewNsbDijiUt2WPwlNe1E7GhUMZdo4IiCA3ToK%2b%2fpsEZHE8ns71Iql1CUvfCYiosOzjy89WG0yFZf4Vs5mFMp%2b%2bwfIoxxcYoT2wPk2%2bS0iIBWNgH5uwWCQmjNMvLgsvfcSvr4vozhGMiZKAhUQwlra97OHBJz8r2NZ8kZNPuu8g24ff6TmIAl%2fGDpqRWAljwd0ci2A7dLIMxwwo7a1HcJDmiM1ChiTscR6bjTvQ91GSu4ZbY8eUTJjf3%2bAkrts3rm22Awc7YUcatc63JuOiK21wz18JT4GE1%2fIRndHwdM8wI4lTQgzE1UEaTsIV6ls8C28MwD0GSWCvLNRegi6C1rEbEJ5mNhlxPJb0qp%2ba6VTY2qXDsvHJb8kxxn3lOJbSrF30cOzfDLBnPcyxyUNdUQU1QHUQGkEW987Ss%3d) four way intersection. I’m heading west bound on Gay St, sitting at the light about to cross over High St (yes, those are the actual names of streets in this town). Anyways… A guy attempts to make a left turn from High St onto Gay St. I say attempts because he never fully makes the turn because he got stuck in the middle of the intersection as his light turns red. My light turns green but I have nowhere to go. So there I sit in my car, mumbling curses at the guy (I’m really not that brave) and wishing for a cop car. And then seemingly out of nowhere there it is – a police car!!! Mean guy gets pulled over, I am able to get through the intersection and all is right with the world, if only for that brief moment. ---

In Sydney, they have huge grid lines drawn over intersections with ‘Don’t block’ written on them. If you get caught, there is an instand fine of $200 (I think). It seems to deter intersection blockers. Could you suggest this to the local council, for particularly bad intersections. ---

Man, it would have been sweet if you had put it in park and popped up through the sun roof in all your righteous fury and pelted her car with several handfuls of Snyder’s, a great vein throbbing at your temple and R. Crumb-esque hate lines radiating everywhere. Failing that, though, the pictures are the absolute best. 🙂 ---

We have “don’t block the box” here in the states too. Unfortunately not everywhere, and not always enforced. I think it’s pretty clear in most places’ driver’s ed that whether the light is green or not, you can’t proceed into an intersection unless you’re sure you have room to clear the intersection. Well, evidently not clear enough. ---

Ohhh, Bruce Daddy do I feel your pain! I knew exactly (well, not exactly but I had it narrowed down to a couple of guesses all of which involved either Haywood or Woodruff Rds) which intersection you meant even before I looked at your map. Oh, and thanks for my new all-purpose “I’m pissed off!” hand signal I just invented based on your genius illustrations. From now on I think I’ll just wave my hands around my head and mutter “Anger!”. Brilliant in its simplicity. ---
