  • Is it wrong...

    ... that I can now tell what neighborhood people live in by what they drive and how?

    Seriously, on my way to work last night, as I was approaching what I call the cluster (the area between the 1300 south entrance and the 600 south exit/80westbound exit) this guy in an old beat up honda cut me off... i actually thought to myself "hmm, looking at that guys car he's either heading to Toelle, Magna, or Rose Park... but with how he drives I'm guessing Rose Park"

    and the scary thing... he got off on Redwood Rd and took Redwood Rd north into Rose Park

    I actually guessed right

    Meh...this morning I was being tailgated hardcore by this enormous pickup truck, complete with the stereotypical lifted frame and multiple antennas. All I know is it was a Chevy.

    Anyways, I try to ignore the asswipe, but as I took the exit and he rocketed past, I looked back and ended up yelling something like "Sorry I made you late to your KKK meeting, Imperial Wizard Cletus!" and the funny thing was, amongst all of the decals of deer and ducks on the back window of his truck, was the double lightning bolts. I forget what they are called but I do remember seeing them tattooed on people and on Nazi uniforms when I watch the History Channel.

      They're called Sig Runes. I'm not sure of their signifigance, but I do know the name.

        They were probably the SS symbol. HERE is a bit more about what most people would call the closest to pure evil to have ever walked the earth.

          Actually smiley I've guessed similar:

          Any big tag car (like a Caddy or a Beemer or a Benz) tends to decide that my ass crack is a fun place to be while I drive and tailgates me to no end. Then they usually cut me off or pass on the right when they've had enough of my 5-mph over the limit driving.

          I'm usually stuck behind Chevys when I'm in a sort of a rush. 9 times out of 10 it is a Chevy Impala. 10 times out of 10 it's an old fart.

          I'm the least tailgated by Toyotas (except for those big Hummer-like ones) and Mini Coopers

          My friendliest cars are Hyundais and Toyotas

          Nissans are typically asswipes who think the rules of the road are merely suggestions.

            What about VW drivers?

              Or Saturn drivers?

              I always wanted a Benz but I'd never use it to attempt to drive up someone's ass. It's too nice a car to do that to.

                  Oh, I do that too, but the majority of them around here do that in a no passing zone and zip two inches in front of you, then suddenly sl-o-o-ow down.

                  As far as no VWs or Saturns on my list....I've honestly only ever seen one around here, and it's my boss's at school. A VW Rabbit, actually.

                    Around here it's the Toyota drivers that cause the most problems, especially the Prius drivers, 45 in the left lane of a 55 zone while traffic is going 70. The Mercedes and BMW drivers are the ones that think it's okay to go 50 in a 25 residential zone.

                      Yeah, well, that's the Prius. It's the car of choice for the people who want a hybrid because "Being Green" is "In"... aka, the 'trendy' EWs.

                        I just love being passed on the highway by one doing 75 or more. I wonder how their gas mileage is then.
