Default ahh i hate idiots

well i was on my way home tonight driving down harborview rd. (a very narrow shitty road) when some douche bag in an SUV came about a foot into my lane, i had to move over quite a bit and when i did, SMASH my front wheel nails a pot hole denting it really bad, its a 17" chrome zo6 wheel so i dunno if ill be able to fix it... i need new tires anyways so it looks like its time to get rid of the 18/17 setup and get 18's all the way around.. so another unexpected cost

my wheels were never curbed or anything before and it really blows since it wasnt my fault..

just felt like sharing

That sucks!

I personally love idiots, it gives me a good reason to use the bird and yell to unwind after a long day at work!

Damn dude. That sucks for both of you. Sorry to hear about the news. Personally, whenever somebody does something idiotic, I know that all the yelling and flipping of the bird doesn't do a damn of good. If they want to drive like an idiot, it's their fault if they get into an accident. Let Darwinism run its course.

I had a 'Vette passing a line of cars using my side of the road the other day. I was driving the work 3/4 ton GMC truck with a big RV attached, umm, wanna play chicken!! I thought.
He moved back over quicker than he pulled out!!!

Yeah well you were with me when that guy on I-95 was going 65 in the emergency lane and cut me off right at the exit...making me barely keep traction getting around him into the exit...you barely passed him so it was 5x as bad for me, oh well...some people are on crack
