OMG! Dying here! That bit about the truck nutz is just perfect. Imma steal that line for peak smack talk next time I interact with one of these douchebags.

Isn't it wild how cartoonish they look when they switch lanes? Whether intentional or not, those things look like they handle like complete ass. Looks they are about to flip when as they wildly swing from lane to lane. So why do they drive like complete aggro roided out douches hopped up on a case of Monster energy drinks if they have a vehicle that clearly can barely handle a quick lane switch? And just like you saw, they get really ticked when you try to merely avoid getting squashed. This has been a bigger problem for me since getting my C30. Those guys act like such dicks. Evidently dicks with HUDGE blind spots. Perhaps these idiots need to upgrade to semi mirrors since they're that height anyway. I've driven semis and the visibility is just fine thanks to said mirrors. These guys have no excuse. I do not enjoy sharing the road with them.
Lol yup!!! When it snowed here couple years back, I enjoyed some immense schadenfreude as I witnessed endless brodozers absolutely stuck in it on the highway, not even able to make it up a slight incline as I cruised on past them in my trusty XC70. Was about 6"+ on ice. Smiled and waved as I plowed through it all with ease. Actually that was a fun couple of days. I freaking RULED the city, shuttling everybody and supplies around. About the only people getting around were in other Volvos, Subarus, and Audis. Many 2WD lifted trux with their worthless slick low-pros completely immobilized. Really was something special to behold.

Impossible, geometrically speaking! At least from the driver's seat. Best they can do is shoot OVER my car. :the_finge
But when I say I wanna talk some trash, I don't mean with some complete stranger on the highway. I was thinking more of when I've met a few of these Kyles at a friend's BBQ or something. I've tried REALLY hard to be polite and keep my mouth shut when they go on about their stupid trucks, but I just wont' be able to contain myself now that I've heard that bit about their sexy truck with dem birthing hips also having nuts. :D
May end up being like that old Ryan Reynolds movie, "Buying the Cow" where they razz him so much they end up making him question his sexuality entirely. LMAO.
Passing in the middle of a long line of cars is the prototypical douche move. OK if you're one car back, otherwise best to chill. (Adaptive cruise control makes it easier to chill.)
Some of it is assholeness, some of it is that being that high off the road makes it seem like you're going slower than you are. It's the same kind of brain games that make people subconsciously speed up when you pass them. (It's not always subconscious but usually it is.)
Passing is a privilege. Not passing is a right. I do agree--leave enough room for the guy behind to pass.
Yep. And for the record, this old fart is pretty aggressive about passing. When it's legal.
Man, you're not wrong at all.
Best I could see of the two guys in the truck was in my rearview through their windshield and from what I could tell through their tint, beyond that they were clearly yelling at me (again, about what I have no idea other than I objected to getting run over at 2mph), was that they likely preferred the Ed Hardy line of clothing and a nice strawberry douche-flute.
This is the image in my mind:

you haven’t lived until you’ve been behind three double-trailer hay trucks for 10 miles going up the hill at 10-20 miles an hour without pulling over - there’s really only one place they could all pull over and I knew it so I just turned on my flashers and camped behind them
it was 0600 on a Saturday - they were headed up to the pack station to deliver hay - there really wasn’t anything they could do
not uncommon with hay trucks, log trucks, heavy equipment haulers, fire trucks, charter busses, utility trucks, beer trucks, RVs, horse trailers, chip trucks, school busses, and snow removal equipment
that doesn’t even take into account shitty vehicles, shitty weather, shitty roads, shitty visibility, and/or shitty drivers
just gotta chill the fuck out driving
Hahaha. Maybe. Just like Quagmire when he discovered the internet...

Ugh.
Inbreds either way.
Sometimes I wonder what is it about ATL that makes every type of annoying driver from the entire southeast come here on weekends trying to flaunt their shit and generally be a douche to the locals.
You'll see mile long parades downtown of 3 wheel slingshots with all kinds of neon lights and stereos blasting.
Hypercars and supercars parading up and down Peachtree at 35mph revving their v12s at max volume.
High end friends of the road hopping in to ride in drop-top Rolls and Bentleys with men 40 years older than them.
Chargers and Challengers of all stripes descend upon the city to sleep 10 deep in their cousin's $4,000/mo 1 BR apartment just to say they "stay" in Buckhead and then hit the clubs and street race until 4am.
Lifted $90K superdootie dually-trucknuts drive down main roads straddling two lanes daring anyone to pass them.
And in the not so nice parts of town at least 3 Kias/Hyundais will be stolen by teenagers and lead police on high speed chases only to wreck in spectacular fashion, and you can't leave out the Nissan Altimas doing 100mph with no tags and on at least one donut.
For the most part its all spectacle, but fuck its annoying. Especially if one of these jabronis gets offended.
Solid rant, Bmills. Dying over here! :D Don't get me started on Altimas. Most of my near-death experiences on the road have been involving those. And always with paper tags, every side bashed in, and the bumpers hanging on for dear life. Mofo's always driving one handed, got the lean going on, smoking, swerving in and out of traffic at completely ludicrous speeds. What's terrifying about them is judging by the car's appearance, you KNOW the driver completely does not give a single eff about his car, his life, or others. The living embodiment of zero effs given. With some vehicles, I'm like "BRING IT! I could use the insurance money!," but with Altimas, I give them a wide freaking berth and GTFO the way. Because they WILL smash into you without a care in the world, and you know damn well they don't have any insurance if they even own that car at all.
Altima drivers be like:

That was poetic
Heh. I'll rant too
Recently moved from one rural area to an area that's much more suburban, annoyingly conservative, and generally white trashy. Fucking people and their cars here. More pavement = more brodozers.
Aside from having to be on the road with these fools the place we're renting is close enough to an intersection that we constantly hear the dbags when they pull on to the highway. It's annoying how stupid some of the "nice" or expensive ones look. Like kids hot wheels toys. A bunch of our neighbors have them, either a $100k+ pavement princess in the driveway of a $600k house or, on the other end of the spectrum, some clapped out 15 year old POS ram with smoke stacks, bald tires, and a bunch of fucked up stickers about how small their dick is parked in the street cause there's not enough room to park in their townhouses driveway.
So we gotta deal with them when we're not even on the road.
Underwear without a cock slot. Why. WHY??
Yes, men's underwear (usually boxer briefs), but with just a plain front so you have to either pull them down, or pull one leg up.
I never use the cock slot.
Really? I pull my underwear down and hoist my junk over it, like men were intended to do. (I don't wear boxers, FWIW, because my boys need a home)
