Time is precious - but come on!

I’ve mastered the “take the ticket” and “foot on the pedal” simultaneously manoevre down to a T. Nothing like moving on quickly and getting to the food court for some chow.

I will ROFLCOPTER when you get the timing wrong and smash your windscreen on the barrier arm thing. 🙂

troll- sniffer….
If someone else acts like an A**hole does that give you the right to act like one too.
You might say they deserved it, but if you let an A**hole worry you then you are an A**hole yourself.

Well done #17. Get the ticket and move on.

I wonder how he reacts when his female slave takes too long to respond to sexual advances, or when she pops the tinny on the way to his TV chair instead of letting him do it? Or puts the milk in his cereal too early?

I dread to contemplate the treatment the child receives when he leaves his toy truck in the corridor.

But seriously, if you’re not already moving through the gate by the time the ticket has been ejected, you’re obviously going too slowly! Just the other day I was stuck behind some old geezer who dropped his ticket. So of course he opens his door and climbs out – only had one leg, so why the bugger was driving, lord only knows. He hobbled over to the ticket with his two walking sticks, and it took him ages to pick the damned thing up because of all the bling he was wearing (seriously, get some gold chains dude, what kind of man wears ribbons on his shirt? glad you enjoyed your little athletics so much). Then he hobbled slowly back to his car and muttered something to me about “fight” and “country”. Couldn’t really hear him over the horn. Dammit, people like that should be shot! SHOT, I tell you!

But I agree with #6, the dude was probably just having a bad day, or flexing some muscle in front of his missus.

There is no excuse, stall your car or stop speaking de engrish at this point and start to give weird religious blessings to the angry person. It will have one of two effects, either they will lose it and go mental (secretly thats what you want) or they leave leave in a bewildered state cursing foreign tongued religious lesbians. Either way have fun with it.

You were luck the guy I delayed jumped out with a length of 4X2 timber and struck me through the half open window. I reported it to the police and was even able to identify his home address (thank you goggle earth). My understanding is the police did nothing (perhaps I was not injured seriously enough). No doubt this guy has mellowed a bit and now just screams abuse. I now carry my own weapon and intend to go swinging.
Maybe my fellow Canberrans could video it and put it on youtube

bd84 – If they were true Charny-ites the woman in the car would have gotten involved too
Aeek – That’s never an excuse for acting like a dick, fucks like that always get waht’s coming to them

weeziepops – You should have ran over and kicked his child to death, harsh I know but think what a service to this planets future you would have been. Alternatively slash the pricks tires or bust of his rear-vision mirrors, he probably won’t learn the error of his ways but at least you will get some fun out of it

Obviously a usually lycra – clad cyclist frustrated with having to take an alternative mode of transport to get his steriods./sarcasm

But seriously – some people are just a**holes. No doubt he will get his comeuppance when he honks at someone with the same agressive streak as him.

Oh, and 6 seconds sounds reasonable.

There is a school of thought that says that our bodies are made up of pure energy, and that our thoughts and feelings can cause that energy to get stuck, resulting in every known form of ailment and disease.

If that theory were to be true, the “Weeziepops” was looking at a walking basket case of internal diseases waiting to explode in that man.

The challenge for each of us confronted by “Mr Cranky” is how we react to such a person. Not letting their issues and problems cause us to be triggered and emotionally affected is the way that best serves us. Easier said than done at times, but a worthwhile ideal to strive for. Otherwise we are capable of taking on all the negative shit he is carrying around into our day, with similar consequences.

“Just a thought….to reflect on”

There must be something in the air judging by the driving I’ve seen this week.

#6 – so what if it had nothing to do with us? Since when is having a bad day an excuse for being nasty?

with dickheads like that behind you, i’d rekkun half an hour would be a good chunk to make them wait… 😉

may have had very little to do with you, previous frustrations and the final straw, etc

Hi Everyone, been reading this site for approximately 5 years now, and love it. Thought I’d finally register and maybe put my 2 cents in here and there.

Weeziepops, this happened to me the other day at the Mall, and I took great delight in pretending that I didn’t notice the mid 40’s female that was abusing me, and swerved in front to steal my park. We then ended up in the same line at Medicare, although I was in front of her. Go figure? *smiles*

Also on that note, I would like to say a personal hello to the nice lady driving on William Hovell(continuing onto Parkes Way) at approx 1245hrs today, that was swerving in and out of traffic, cutting people off, and driving up everyone’s rear end, who’s life is so obviously more important than that of others on the roads. She has shoulder length blonde hair, was driving a blue four wheel drive with sunroof, and a personalised ACT number plate reading AUS-*1.

Please everyone keep an eye out for her (read:avoid) and be kind enough to wave to her because she may cause injury to herself (and others) very soon if she continues to drive the way she does.

6 seconds

belco bogans have strayed from charny again

Lucky I wasn’t the one in front or my car would have stalled and been difficult to start again, necessitating a lift of the bonnet to see what the problem was. Not that this type of loser would ever learn but the satisfaction of holding the plik up would be immense.

Shouldn’t really leave the ticket in the car 😉

But I usually fumble with it to get it in my bag at some stage in the parking process. Either that or I drive around with it in my mouth… I wonder how gross that is.
