A) The guy who agrees to sell you an item on CL, communicates with you for 6+ hours, knows when you get off work, arranges a meeting point and time and then sells the item right out from under you less than an hour before you’re supposed to meet

B) The guy in the crappy Opel, er, Vauxhall, um, Saab 9-3 driving with the rear fog light ( searing the retinas of every poor soul stuck behind him) and the one working front fog light because his headlights are too yellowed to be useable

C) Mr. Cool, driving with his running lights and fogs on, but no headlights

D) Dork on the ratty sounding 2-stroke scooter with a blown muffler, driving endlessly around the neighborhood for five frigging hours, all the way until 1:30 AM

E) The guy who finally calls the cops (non-emergency line) on the jackass in option D so that he and his neighbors can finally get some damn sleep

F) The guy at the computer store responsible for the online inventory system that says that they have 10+ units of an item in stock, yet not one employee can find a single unit anywhere in the store.

G ) The guy that decides that he needs to make a left turn when he’s in a right-turn only lane, blocking traffic in the through lanes (and others in the right turn lane) until the light cycles so he can cut in front of others in the arrow-protected left turn lane and make his fucking left turn instead of just living with the consequences of his simple mistake and going around the block thus wasting only five minutes of his own time instead of everyone else’s...

H ) The guy in the new Range Rover (it’s always a Range Rover...) that makes a seriously ill-timed left turn out of a gas station when normal through t raffic is passing by , accelerates i n the median towards oncoming traffic waiting in the same median instead of just waiting his fucking turn; he then flip s you off at the next light because you didn’t slow down or move out of the way to let him in where there wasn’t room (and where he most certainly didn’t have the RoW unless RoW is now determined by your own insecure feelings of self-importance and how much money you wasted on your unreliable PoS SUV)

Th ere can be more than one right answer. Heck, it may even be a seven - or eight -way tie...

How about the person who pulls into the neighborhood to pick someone up and leans on the horn to alert them, despite the fact that it’s 12:55 am?

I think D or G, though H could definitely be in contention. If I had to pick one, I’d probably go with D .

The guy who stops at the entrance to an empty roundabout can go for a short walk off a long pier.

Does E qualify as an asshole or is he just a good neighbor?

I hate most people, so it's all a tie, except for the hero knowing the police have a non-emergency dispatch number.

I don’t see anything remotely wrong with E.

Everyone down here thinks it’s okay to cross a multilane divided street partway and then wait for the rest of the lanes to clear to complete the left turn , while simultaneously blocking oncoming lanes. Even the police do it.

So, it’s a tie between...how many Texans are there?

Watch them lumber out in front of you and not accelerate, then veer left to turn right like they are driving a semi. Also watch the brake lights which means "distracted by texting"

By what’s written in the O.P., E ’s a good neighbor.

instead of just living with the consequences of his simple mistake and going around the block

Going around the block ?!? What kind of monster are you? You might as well ask him to chop off his own arm with a chain saw! When one accidentally, through no failing of one’s own, ends up in the wrong lane where he wan ts to turn, to “go around the block”? impossible! suicidal! absurd! unthinkable! Let the rest of the world be damned , one absolutely must make that turn. It’s a matter of life and death .

Don’t you understand? When it comes to saving one’s life in the dark, one doesn’t care who else went - three, thirty, three hundred people... Wince all you like, lad, you’ll soon leave off coming the righteous over me.
