Truck drivers around here.
First they get straight pipes for the ripping/cracking sound. Makes their dicks grow longer. After a period of time, they have to install a lift kit to keep the road rash off the little head. Final stage is getting the big diameter wheels and tires 'cause the scraping sound when it drags drives them crazy.
Me, I just fold mine and sling it over my shoulder!
Priuses.
Every time I see some entitled douchebag pull some stupid-ass maneuver, and flip you off when you honk, they’re driving a goddamn Prius.
It’s hard for them to see though that cloud of smug.
I’m glad I have an Insight.
Location?
New Zealand - A 1992- 1998 Subaru Legacy wagon with alloy wheels and mismatched panels is a sure sign you will be cut off in the next 30 seconds. (and no, I don’t drive one.)
Cars with Redskins paraphernalia, particularly those ugly flags that make them look like the wannabe motorcade from the Jordanian embassy or something, attached. And Cadillac Escalades. These two categories are not mutually exclusive.
For example, a few months ago I was in the lane to merge onto the Beltway, and up ahead another car was trying to get over so he too could get to the ramp. The Escalade zoomed forward to cut him off and they narrowly avoided colliding by about 5 inches. The guy who got cut off somehow managed to lean on his horn with one hand, steer the car, and simultaneously open his sunroof to flip the Escalade driver the bird in one seamless maneuver. It was kind of awesome.
Whatever the Lexus SUV is called! They are just awful - snobbish and think they own the road.
Escalade ownership is a 99.994% accurate indicator of douchebaggery. This statistic is so well-established that Escalades come straight from the factory with chlorine gas and cheese cloth in the airbag mechanisms, and nobody minds at all, at all.
Arguably-less-apocryphally, the family owners (totalling 3) of the last company I worked for used to arrive and depart at the same time each day in a mini-motorcade (from the same residence) comprised of an Escalade (wife,) a Hummer (daughter,) and a Lamborghini (husband,) with mom and dad occupying the only two handicapped spaces (therefore closest to the door) in the parking lot every day. Woe unto you if you parked in the spot beside the two handicapped spaces.
I still wouldn’t blink if they were simultaneously set on fire – the exploitive, conspicuously-consuming, self-absorbed pricks.
ROFL
Bahh,
Everybody is a rude ass these days. Just the other day I was driving down a busy two lane highway. People were passing like idiots, barely swerving back into their lane before we hit head on. Lucky for them, I was paying attention and slowing down a bit to let them just make it back over. After a mile or two of this crap I just gave up.
though the fact I driving the wrong way on a one way road might have had something to do with it
It used to be BMW drivers until I got one, now it’s Audi.
Volvos, Hummers, Toyota trucks and Camarys, Nissan trucks, and anybody in a minivan goes 10 MPH under the speed limit when it rains.
It’s not the car, it’s how it’s accesorized.
Just a few days ago I saw a driver make a completely bone-headed move. I can’t remember exactly what it was, but it was a U-turn that inconvenienced a lot of people and could easily have caused a lot of damage. Stupid move, especially considering that an infant was in the car, or so said the sign on the rear window.
I’ll opine that around here it’s late model Suburban-y type vehicles, especially Escalades, and 4WD Pickups with lift kits.
I also notice that cars with Jesus fish emblems seem to be particularly selfish drivers, though I can’t be entirely sure if that’s real, or I just notice the irony.
I don’t know, but if I see a Chevy Suburban with a Jesus fish on the bumper and a Baby On Board sign in the window, I’m getting the hell off of the sidewalk.
We’ve got a lot of big, powerful, accesorized pick-ups down here and a good percentage of these jerks drive like they’re desparate to find a bathroom, tourniquet, something of dire necessity.
Hummer drivers are pretty pathetic though; slow in the fast lane, park in the grocery store fire lane blocking a pedestrian ramp, etc. It’s as if they believe bad attention is better than no attention at all.
The truck situation is similar here, except that the final step is to buy a set of truck nuts.
I wrap mine around my waist a few times. Yes, it does make me look fat, but I prefer it to having to say “what hump?” fifty times a day.
Location: I-75, south Georgia. It’s not the make or model, it’s the license plate. Fulton, Cobb, or Dekalb county drivers are the worst (the county name is prominently displayed on GA plates). Second place- Florida drivers never move over to let anyone on the freeway.
My sentiments exactly, especially about Saabs.
Q: What is the difference between a Saab and a porcupine?
A: With a porcupine, the pricks are on the outside.
And here I thought this was going to be a Maximum Overdrive thread.
Shucks.
