To the bitch in the parking lot at the Bethesda Giant on Old Georgetown Rd

[Anonymous]

I stopped driving the Mercedes because people would jump or walk in front of it to make me stop. Odd, people never do that to the Honda. They just see the Mecedes coming and feel they need to make a point. That my car is harder than they are?

And both times I slammed my fist down on the hood of the car and yelled "YOU ALMOST HIT ME" loud as hell and stodd in front of the idiot and their car for a minute grilling them.

It certainly made me feel better

Had to do that too when DS and I were nearly run over in the Silver Spring Whole Foods parking lot.
Slammed the hood and yelled. Hope I scared that !@#$% whizzing through a parking full of pedestrians.

Could not agree more.

+1 never thought of that before. Always wondered why people in NYC seemed so friendly.

I give cigarette butts back to their original owners when they throw them out the window at red lights. They are usually somewhere between surprised, chagrined, and terrified.

In California, people do that on purpose - you hit them and then they get to sue you. Rather simple. Same problem on freeways out there -- you are buzzing along at 60 or 70 MPH (OK, it's California, let's be realistic) - you are going 75, and a car of men pulls in front of you and puts on the brakes. Of course you hit them; of course they all have whiplash and other injuries, disability claims and personal injury lawyers lined up. And you are liable because you were the car coming from the behind. Fortunately, the police, insurance companies are on to this game but it's of great concern to good drivers or, as in my case, children of elderly drivers out there who might be taken advantage of.

people who drive BMW"s are assholes. my dad always used to say it and it's often true. obviously generalizing but a LOT of jackasses seem to drive them.

Wow! I have often thought the same thing. So it's not only me...

Me three! However, add Lexus drivers as well. I don't know what it is about drivers of luxury cars.

I drive a Lexus SUV. I want to put a sign on it that says "This car was my husband's idea. I promise, I'm really a very nice, considerate person."

I know people probably assume I'm horrid and self-important.

DH thinks Lexus owners are the biggest douches in all the land. He was recently in the market for a family friendly 4 door, yet sporty, sedan. He liked how the Lexus looked but refused to consider it just due to the douche-tag that goes along with owning one. And now we can't get the Lexus dealer to stop emailing us.

What is the difference between a BMW and a Porcupine?
Porcupine has the pricks outside

when all the luxury cars get together (private school line) they all drive VERY carefully...no bumping the paint job, or running over the DC
