GO ahead and take my horn. I'll get this:

[quote=CRedskinsRule;726000]We really couldn't share the road. I don't use signals all the time - if i am in a turn only lane you can figure it out yourself - and I seriously hate people who honk. I have slowed to a near crawl once when a lady was rushing through and honking like she owned the road. What was funny is once i started driving again she sped around in front of me, and slowed down to a near crawl, which didn't bother me but I found hilarious as she was now slowing herself down.[/quote]

I never honk out of impatience or trying to get through traffic quicker. I only do it when someone pulls a jackass move in front of me. Cut me off, you're getting at least 10 seconds of horn. Swerve all over the road without signaling...horn. Don't see me because you're on your phone. They're going to hear my horn on the other end. :D

I've always wanted to "upgrade" to one of those air horns in the JC Whitney catalog. I've always had my eye on the "ocean liner" horn. That will get their attention.

[quote=MonkFan4Life;725891]I feel you. I'm from Landover near Seat Pleasant but let me be out of the state or the country and someone askes where I'm from, DC just rolls off the tongue. Then I can clarify with I'm not in DC but I live in such and such. Or I'll always use DC as the base point. That's just how it is. The reason I don't say Maryland is because people always assume that I'm from Baltimore, to which I always reply by pointing to my wife and saying, "She is, I'm not."[/quote]

yeah if someone asks where I'm from I just say DC.. I've lived there and they don't know particular cities in VA

sometimes I just say DC area

If you want it loud it has to be an air horn those electric ones are not very loud. Here these will get the people out of your way. They maned one "wake the dead" and it should at $1400.

Re: What's your pet peeve?
 

Skinny Jeans for dudes.

But not just Skinny jeans, the bammas that buy the jeans that are short enough for my 2 year old son to wear but,...but,....get this. You pull the jeans BELOW your ass cheek so that I can marvel at the pattern of your boxer shorts so that the pants leg has the POTENTIAL of hitting your shoes. And then they wear a belt, a BELT. To tighten the pants around your THIGH ? How incomfortable must that be ? Not to mention you wear a shirt that's tighter than a bra.......but no. You don't want that to happen so you CUFF the goddamn pants up so I can see your socks. WEAR SOME FREAKING SHORTS DICKHEAD !!!! ****

I swear these kids today. I mean I don't wear tight jeans, and I like my jeans to have some room BUT they sag enough where if I didn't have a belt on they would sit, not fall below my waist. If you don't want the jeans constricting you buy a different pair. I saw this guy on the train I shit you not. I saw a guy who was bigger than me that had on shorts that my 110 lb wife could fit and had them pulled down and the still JUST hit mid thigh. WTF ????

There are certain fads and styles that my son juuuuuuust won't be getting with when he gets older.

Plus, why when I go to buy jeans now it's a 80/20 Skinny Jean to everyother kind you can find ratio ?

**** YOU LIL WAYNE !!!!!! Thanks alot you douche

I see this couple with a S-load of stuff and they walk to one of those cars and I stopped and looked at my wife and she instantly told me to shut up. After we parked I laughed because as they're trying their best to fit everything they bought in the car my son points and says "Daddy that's a little car" I died laughing.

I really can't stand seeing those cars on the Beltway though.

I saw one in the local mall.

I walked up to it and with one hand on the roof, was rocking it so easily that I COULD HAVE tipped it over onto its side pretty easily.

How this passed crash/safety tests is beyond me....I have a feeling that the environmentalists in the Gov't helped push it through for sales.

Why anyone would drive one of these death traps, I'll never know.

How about people who buy a house on a golf course and complain about golf balls in there yard. I just wrote condo policy for this guy and while talking to him I realized he purchase the condo about 200 yrds down on the right that everyone hits. The good news is he does not play golf and he has a 5 gallon buck full of balls he is going to give to me.

As to hitting someone in their sleep - once, early on in my relationship with my eventually-to-be-wife, I had a dream that I was in a knife fight with her ex-boyfriend. In the dream, we are struggling, I roll him over, get a clear shot at him, and plunge my knife into him hard right between the shoulder blades...

I wake up just as I as my fist is swinging down into my wife's back, hard, right between the shoulder blades. I mean I thumped her good. She woke up screaming both from pain and fright. She took a couple minutes to calm down. Given her terrified screaming, I was surprised the neighbors didn't call the cops - it was so piercing.

And, yet,she married me ...

Hope that wasn't TMI and sorry for the threadjack.
