Nothing but dicks on the road today. Got behind a guy in a red mustang with out of state plates. Was going about 10mph through the neighborhood so I figured he was looking for house numbers, after a couple blocks I pull around and pass him - HE SWERVES TOWARDS ME AND LAYS ON THE HORN.
I flip him the bird. I don’t do this often. Last time, about two years ago . You have to be a major jackass to get the bird. So he starts following me now (suddenly he’s not going 10mph anymore) after I make a right turn on another road, and he follows, I let off the gas and coast down, and wave him past with a sarcastically exaggerated motion - he passes and I see there’s a woman in the passenger seat who has already had enough of this shit. I cut a left and go on my way.
But here’s the thing, after this happens I remember that before I got behind him, there was a car between me and him. When this car turned on their blinker to make a right, he made a right without his blinker - then this car went straight and didn’t end up making a right . Which left me directly behind. I think he was intentionally just being a dick to people (he was about 10mph through all of this until I passed him) . He obviously wasn’t actually looking for an address or a place to park.
Then like ten minutes later, I’m leaving a parking lot. There’s a woman stopped in the parking lot exit, in the lane with the left turn arrow. I pull alongside in the lane with the right turn arrow, because I’m going to turn right. Suddenly, without any blinker, she turns right across my nose and honks. WTF? Is it really this fucking hard to make a right turn? Why the fuck are you in the left turn lane, making a right turn?
They must’ve been handing out free A-hole pills today.

Yeah things are a bit nutty today. I only drove a few miles but had someone pull up in the left turn lane to go straight at a light.

Someone should slip a fake TNYPNS plate on the back of that Mustang.

I was leaving the grocery store earlier when a car came up the aisle going the wrong way and stopped directly behind me. I gave a friendly beep in case he just didn’t see my reverse lights, and he didn’t move.... but the lady loading her car in front of me threw up her hands and gave me a death glare as if I just slapped her grandma. In that moment, my only thought was that Homer Simpson quote: “Everyone is stupid except me.”

This sounds par for the course around me. I flip someone off about once a week. We struggle with not stopping in the middle of the road and one lane per car

On a t wo-lane (one in each direction) 55 mph highway, I caught up to a pair of vehicles. One was making a right turn, the one behind it had slowed WAY down instead of simply passing by in the fully clear passing zone. For all I knew, he had probably forgotten to signal that he was also going to turn and continue following the other car . So without missing a beat, I signaled my pass and maintained (legal) speed to pass by.
Turns out that second vehicle wasn’t turning after all. Once the car in front of him completed its turn, he floored the gas in a desperate attempt to resume speed and prevent me from passing. WTF

Sounds like all the crazies took to the roads today. My wife was out doing some work errands and said the drivers were bonkers here too.
“ Good” thing I was/am too hung over to go out into the world today. Tip: don’t drink by the bowlfu l. I think I might have faired the best out of Team Four-B owls; but that’s still a pretty low standard.

Wait, you’re in the austin tx area, right?
I had to take a relatively short drive to pick up food this afternoon, and it seemed like the whole world’s rules just suddenly didn’t apply. People stopped diagonally across intersections. People going the wrong way down one-way streets, and being p issed off at me for going the right way.
Like upside-down world, today.
What. The. Fuck. People.
