Why flip me off?

j.arnaldo · 01-04-2010, 01:06 PM

The problem with some folk is their attitude. Regardless of what you say or do, those sourpusses will invariably blast you. I'm very resilient to people like that, and always respond with a super sense of humor that blows them away!

To the OP, I've had several occasions where I was just cruisin along, minding my own business when some douche in a Evo, STI, Civic, pulls up alongside me chirpin their BOV at me, basically antagonizing me into a race, and that pisses me off quite honestly, so I dunno, maybe you ruffled his feathers a bit. By far, the most immature crowd i've seen on the streets have been EVO and STI drivers, thats not directed necessarily at you, but they seem to attract immature fanboys. Well them and Mustang/Camaro drivers.

I don't feel like I provoked him. He came up on me and was provoking me if anything. I would have to agree about evo and wrx owners. I think civics are the worst though. They almost always try to get me to race them and about 90% of civics are ugly and riced out and super slow. but I think he flipped me off and said f you to make sure his point was made. haha

I agree. On the East Coast, there is more ricer Civics than any other car. Total wannabes who think that having loud/fancy stereos and non stock rims are cool! In reality, its trailer park wiggers.

Some people are dicks. Its as simple as that. He's probably pissed off at the world that he's got a lil smokey for a ****. Ya know, I'd rather not figure out the reason for his sour attitude....

I get all excited because I actually own a restored 1972 240z and am working on a 260z. So we race around a bit. He beats me by about 3 car lengths and a little farther down we run into some traffic and we are almost completely stopped and I roll down my window to tell the guy nice car and that I have a 240z and he rolls down his window flips me off and says F YOU. and pulls off at the next exit..... I was like...... oooooook. Just felt like venting.

maybe he's got turrets syndrome

You guys aren't focusing properly. We need to find out WHY this guy flipped him the bird. I have a few questions that may help.

1. How much hair gel was involved?
2. Could his sunglasses encompass nine to ten eyes?
3. Did his shirt have sleeves?
4. Was there a tan? If so, how fake did it look?

If you can answer those questions we can further understand what type of man this is.

yes, now we are getting into the meat of the issue. I assume that since this is in SC that hair gel may not be involved. Hey, OP, no Obama bumper stickers on your car? That could get him all riled up.

Maybe he flipped you off for street racing and putting people's lives at risk who are just trying to mind their own business and get home in one piece.

Or maybe that's just why I would have flipped you off.

06WRXsti · 01-04-2010, 01:40 PM

ok. so white sunglasses. flat hat. and his ears were gauged.

06WRXsti · 01-04-2010, 01:44 PM

haha IT WAS YOU!!!!!!!! and he was driving like a maniac. weaving in and out of cars. i was just racing a couple wrx's and him the one time when there was room on the freeway and no traffic was in the way. you can race someone on the freeway and not put anyone but yourself and the person deciding to race you at risk. Thats what I was doing and I was completely aware of the risk I take of injuring or killing myself.

Zsteve · 01-04-2010, 01:57 PM

Its kinda wierd since he raced you back, so he couldnt be mad about that or he just wouldnt have raced you. Id just chalk it up to him being one As*hole and leave at that.

XBadgerX · 01-04-2010, 02:47 PM

Would have flicked you off too...
