Okay, I've got to get this off my chest and into words because it is making me crazy right now. I apologize in advance for rambling and ranting but this story is the type that honestly makes you wonder about people......

So about an hour and a half ago my wife and I headed down to the local Costco to pick up some supplies......we don't even usually like going on Weekends because the place is such a madhouse but we figured that we'd better get it out of the way so we headed down.

I'm going to go ahead and attatch a map from Costco's website to give you all a better idea of what happened and how crazy the whole situation was:



So my wife was driving and we were coming west on SE 56th ST(which has 2 lanes each way and a center turn lane. We were the first car in the center turn lane turning left onto 10th Ave NW which is another 4 lane(2 lanes each way) with a center median - The left turn light went green so we started to turn into the right lane onto 10th Ae when a black Jetta coming from the other direction made a right turn right in front of us basically cutting us off.......so my wife slams on the horn to let her know that she totally ran a red light.

Imagine our suprise when instead of waving to acknowledge that she had screwed up, she instead slammed on her brakes, got out of her car(in the middle of traffic) came back to our car and told my wife: "Don't you ever dare to honk at me again you stupid bitch" At this point and time I got out of the car and started yelling back at her as well, as I wasn't about to let this crazy woman harm my wife......of course she took issue with me getting out of the car and yelled "what are you getting out of the car for?"

It wasn't until this point and time I saw movement in the back seat of her car so I said - "Great, you've got a kid in your back seat, you sure are teaching them great habits!" She of course corrected me and said "That's my grandma" Of course I took this as a great opprotunity to point out what a fine job Grandma had done in helping to raise her and said that she must be proud. (It should be noted that we saw them again in the store later and Grandma didn't look to be completely with it anymore so the whole incident was probably lost on her)

To this she of course plays the "fat guy card" which of course had NOTHING to do with her driving skills, or lack thereof. While I will be the first one to admit that I'm a bit overweight I'm pretty okay with it and it certainly doesn't affect anybody else in the same way that her driving does. Additionally while she certainly wasn't fat she was wearing lowrise jeans and had a little belly fat hanging over which made her look a little chunky and just made the whole thing seem more ironic.

If anybody is still reading then thanks for sticking with me this long, I just needed to vent......but it all does prompt the question....have you ever experienced a situation like this? I know with me personally that I'm not a perfect driver, but if I ever realize in a situation like this that I'm in the wrong then I'm the first person to attempt to wave an apology....this situation was just wacko....ESPECIALLY the whole stopping in the middle of traffic to attempt to threaten me and my wife instead of proceeding on to the actual parking lot to tell us off.

Jesus, man. You've got to be unstable to get out of a car in traffic to yell at a woman who just honked at you. Seriously, in the grand scheme of things, who cares? I don't give a shit what kind of day you've had, life sucks, grow up.

The closest incident I had was my grandfather's funeral. I was one of the cars in the funeral procession. I left a bit of space between my car and the one in front of me and some jerkoff zips beside me and gets in the procession. Yep, apparently he was in a hurry of some kind and then started tailgating and you could see him gesticulating in the car. So, similar to your wife, I start honking at the guy to get the fuck out of my grandfather's FUNERAL procession. He immediately peels out of the procession into a parking lot and starts screaming at me to "come and fucking get me, tough guy!" The hearst is a mere two cars ahead and this psycho is waving me on. I just shook my head because sometimes you just can't believe it.

Should've just yelled "she's a cop, bitch" and kept driving.

lol, unfortunately Frosted I never think of those things until AFTER the time has come and gone.....and at any rate she was RIGHT in front of us...really wasn't any way for us to get around her

Sorry to hear that some jackass made an already hard to deal with day even more difficult for you DJ Must have been an American tourist though, you Cannucks seem far too level headed for that sort of behaviour.

synopsis pls

Bitch ran red light. Wife honked. Bitch slammed brakes, got out, yelled at wife. Chrome got out yelled at Bitch. Mexican wrestlers broke Bitch over knee, like so.

wave the gun around and thank the second ammendment.

The most aggravating experience that I've had was when I was once the first car stopped at a red light, waiting to make a right turn onto a busy street. Several signs at the intersection clearly said "NO TURN ON RED 7 AM - 7 PM" or something to that effect. It was around 4 in the afternoon and traffic was indeed heavy, so I didn't even think about turning at the time. The car behind me started to honk and pointed to the right, as if I should go ahead and turn. I didn't. He honked some more. Then he got fed up and DROVE ONTO THE SIDEWALK TO MY RIGHT, GAVE ME THE FINGER, MADE THE TURN, AND ALMOST GOT HIT BY A TRUCK. :x

I was waiting in a taxi cue outside a bar, and this woman asks me if we were waiting for a taxi and i said yes, then she goes back and stands with her mates. Then a taxi comes, and she yells at me, "oi, your taxi's here". I told her that this elderly couple were actually ahead of me in the cue. The couple drives away.

Then this bushpig gutter scum comes up to me and says "you said you were next in line, why did you lie to me". I told her that, no, i wasnt next in line, i only said i was waiting for a cab. Then she just gets irate, all up in my face. Then she turns her attention to this girl that was with me, and starts getting all in her face, and starts pushing a bit. Then the bitch slaps my friend and was about to hit her again, so i knocked the bitch on her ass. I felt kind of bad knocking a woman over, but damn, she fucking deserved it. I didnt hit or anything, just pushed her into a garden. She was with another guy who was about twice my age but just stood there and did nothing. I told him to keep his dog on a leash next time he leaves his house.

What i want to know is why the shit did she want to fight us for 'lying' to her about or position in the line. Its really weird.

William Randolph?

I have such horrible road rage, I probably would've choked the bitch. I hope nobody pulls that with me.

I don't bother even the biggest idiots on the road. (A) It doesn't solve shit. (B) With my luck, I will give the finger to a client.

Yeah that's pretty crazy to actually get out of a car and start yelling at someone. Too bad you didn't have a gun handy.

You have signs that speak???

I generally don't honk unless it is a preventative honk...honks after the fact are pointless

"Don't you ever dare to honk at me again you stupid bitch"

This is soooooo very Eastside/Bellevue/Issaquah.

"Fuck you! I live in Issaquah! Don't you know who I am!? I'm important shit!"

I hate the Eastside.

i wouldn't indulge these people. flip the bird and drive on.

No.

but a good long honk at some asshole after the fact feels so good. How can you deny yourself this?

when you deserve to honk, when the other person has just been so so stupid, nothing feels better than a good honk. i love the honk, but only when absoluetly merited....not just when you feel like it.

Ya know Eric, we've lived in Issaquah for like 5 years now and never experienced anything quite like this - In many ways, Issaquah is still the small town that it started out as - I would have expected this more in Sammamish or Bellevue for sure as there is seemingly more money there, but who knows.....maybe she was from there

The "Do you know who I am!?" thing was exactly what my wife and I were thinking - were were totally saying that afterwards - "Who the fuck does this woman think that she is?? Stopping traffic because we yelled at her?? We were more concerned that if she did that again at that light that she could totally get T-boned than that she cut us off......

"Issaquah".....? ha ha hah ha ha hahahahhahha ha ha ha ha ha ha hah!
you're killin' me!

A nice long honk is a great tool for those idiots who are both driving badly AND talking on the cellphone. If everyone made sure to give these drivers a big strong honk then all the other end of the call would hear would be honk after honk after honk. A lone honk from me they can write off as some traffic incident around them. Imagine how a succession of honks that peppers the phone conversation sounds.

Keep a bowl with resin in it, and a coat hanger. After she parks, pick the lock, plant the pipe, and call 911 to report a drunk and possibly high driver. Give the license number and let them know they're parked at Costco where they nearly hit you.

Sit back and enjoy.
