    brilliant. I'd definately take some of those lows, with a high or two to go with it.
    Remember the time he ate my goldfish? And you lied and said I never had goldfish. Then why did I have the bowl Bart? Why did I have the bowl?

  • I've always considered it a very cowardly thing to do. They probably wouldn't say anything if they were walking past you in the street but feel safe if they are in a car.

    Of course, if what they shout is offensive and you can get the registration number of the car you could report it to the police.

    Jumping behind the wheel into a big metal shield can do wonders for one's confidence. The meekest elderly lady pushing around her trolley in Marks & Sparks shopping for her poultry turns into a bully with the mouth of a sewer!

    I remember once we stopped at a zebra crossing as people were waiting, little old lady in her Skoda behind who could barely see over wheel start cussing at us louder than anything... This was in the midst of summer and we had to close our windows before we started sobbing uncontrollably from the offence, but managed to regain our composure before we melted from the heat.

    I really have to fight the urge to around here sometimes as I pass cyclists with their trousers somewhere around their knees and five inches of boxer shorts on show - really really want to shout out of the window at them to pull their flipping trousers up (I haven't as of yet).

    Well done.

    You would only make yourself look foolish.

    It's amazing how many idiotic car drivers seem to think that a pedestrian or cyclist will be able to hear what they are ranting about when they go past at 30 mph causing their words to become unintelligible because of Doppler shift and rapidly changing volume.

    Must admit the past few days I've been very tempted not only to yell out the window but to pull over and "talk" some sence into the cyclists who wear all dark clothing when its pitch black and have no lights on their bike (Or those ruddy idiotic lights that just blink all the time, like they're sending you morse code of "watch out, muppet about") and expect you not to run them over.
