Hoon crashes into 7-Eleven

[the lawsmeister]

just when you think you've heard it all, you see a news report like this

Apparently this bloke was doing burnouts in a carpark, lost control and smashed into the 7-Eleven. The clerk's gone to make sure he wasn't injured but the driver has abused him and driven further into the shop before taking off.
Unfortunately it would seem that he left his front bumper behind at the store - complete with his number plate


Just damn lucky that the clerk wasn't hurt.

So, is "hoon" synonymous with, say, "chav" or "ricer"?

Idiot, definitely.

Wikipedia says: Generally, a hoon is any person who drives any vehicle dangerously and/or fast.

The very first line of the article grabbed me:

"Police have arrested a 41-year-old man in connection with an incident where a car ploughed into a Melbourne convenience store." (bolding mine)

I just assumed we were talking about a dumb teenager trying to show off. What is a grown man doing burn-outs for?

How sad is that?

And they let this tool get away??? Makes me glad that there's thousands of miles of open water separating him from me.

Don't ask why a 41 year old man is still doing that.

Come to my city sometime, on a Friday afternoon at the mall. There's middle aged men in their ricers and sports cars, still thinking they are 18, showing off for all the little girls, hoping to pick them up.

He gets the idiot award, though. Don't leave your evidence behind!

My mom does doughnuts in the church parking lot.

Admittedly, she does this when there's at least an inch of snow on the ground, and she does it to keep in practice for should she ever start skidding on the road, and she's very careful to stay as far away from the building as the parking lot allows.

Guy in the article? Just plain dumb.

Hey blas I think I got you beat on that one. You should have seen the mobile home park in Michigan where my mother lives. All day long in the summer you'd see scantily-clad 13-15 year old girls walking up and down while 21 year old pedophiles would cruise up and down with their stereos blasting looking to pick them up. One of them ended up being pregnant. They're literally like a female dog you have that escapes your yard and gets nailed by one of the male dogs roaming the streets and then it comes home pregnant. Pretty pathetic.
