1SICKBLOG: The true medal of honor, the middle finger from another vehicle...
Honestly I stay out of the fast lane most times and cruise around instead of thinking I need to get from point A to point B in warp speed EVERY time Less stressful to say the least. We have a thread where GA is so bad, we have to have a LAW so people can move out of the fast lane as they are holding up traffic. I am very aware of these people and have a few choice words for them and they rhyme with j*******, mucking idiot and bucktard for example.
I also like being on time and having ample time to get to my destination. This also allows for less stress as I don't need to drive like Jeff Gordan to wherever I am going. This however wasn't the case this weekend. I was very busy this weekend and had a lot of running around to do and I was indeed using the fast lane most of the time.
It is utterly frustrating using it. I found myself in the slow lanes easily outpacing the people in the fast lane just clogging up traffic. In the fast lane the stereotypes are simply true.
-Hondas. 12% of the cars sold here are Hondas but 70% in the fast lane are Hondas according to my calculations. Accords, Oddeys, Insights, Pilots, Rimjobs, Civics, everything..In the fast lane, slow. Even when they think they are going fast, they are slow.
-SUVs/Truck/anything that is towing something-There should be a law that they cannot be in the fast lane. They are slow, they block visibility and they have the reflexes of the guy **** Cheney shot in the face with the pellet gun. To make matters worse people towing their RV, trailer, another car, a boat, etc seem to think the fast lane is wider or something as they clog it up with not just their vehicle, but what they are towing.
-Priuses and other slowass hybrids--I already mentioned the Insight but by far the biggest offender of being in the fast lane and being a hybrid is the Prius, usually the older ones. I've defended them in the past and tried to overlook their idiocy but this weekend opened my eyes to some of these SMUG "I know whats better for me, you, the environment and the galaxy" ********.
Why the hell are you in the fast lane? Didn't you buy the thing for efficiency and trying to go 75 MPH in it isn't exactly running it at optimal efficiency. Don't pick and chose when Efficient is right!!!
So I was on the way and I am exceeding the speed limit in the fast lane. For the most part I was lucky and there wasn't too much traffic in the fast lane. My lights are on and anyone can easily look in their rear view mirror and see me coming except of course the 3 groups mentioned above who have the driving skills and aptitude of my big toe.
A Prius for no reason just juts into the fast lane and is pacing. I begin flashing my lights to let this guy know I am coming and coming fast....he stays and stays and finally decides to move over. His move to the fast lane was useless as he literally moved right back over to the same spot he was in. He never passed anyone...
As I drive by...this SOB bravely GIVES ME THE FINGER!! My first reaction was to stop but I had to go....I was stunned that I got a finger for driving fast, warning the guy with my flashing lights. This smug SOB should get a medal of honor for that.
That same day on another highway there is a Prius running seemingly in electric mode in the fast lane and as I drive around her in the slow lane as she is oblivious to flashing lights this old lady, maybe 50s, 60s gives me the finger. I mean its like a gotdamn middle finger Prius fest going on!! I was so stunned it didn't hit me until like 10 seconds later that I got another finger from another Prius driver.
This last story had my cousin and I perplexed. We are on the way to a meet and a beautiful black Maserati Quattroporte is passing us as we turn right. I comment how beautiful the car is and he agrees saying he loves Masers. We drive behind them, not in a rush or anything just cruising. There are two kids in the back, maybe 4/5 years old tops and they start waving at us. My cousin and I are a little puzzled and wave back "awwww cute kids".
WRONG WRONG WRONG
They then proceed to drop their window, stick their heads out and wave some more. Now we both thought this was odd, they looked like 2 little doggies trying to get some wind. We wave back, grinning "awwww, those kids are so nice".....
Then they take turns sticking their hands out the window giving us the gotdamn finger. We both were like "oh hell naw, wtf".
Well after various fingers from various people today I had enough.....so I pull up next to the Maser and the kids look scared crapless as it was a one lane road. They pull off to the next road and my cousin and I have a conversation about spoiled *** bad *** kids.
Eventful day!

I normally don't pay or look into the next vehicle so I'm not sure if I have ever gotten the finger...
I do know, I gave the lady the finger a couple weeks ago because she had me so pissed. She was paying attention to her GPS and I assume it said go straight so she decided to get just get out of her lane even after me honking the horn on 20. She still came over into my lane until I had to slam on the brake and almost get rear ended @ 70mph because I was stuck...

Why you gots ta hate on honda's Mikey?
Not fair Seriously bro, I think I am one of the few Honda owners who DOESN'T drive like a MorHan. Probably because I cant. I have 110hp @ the wheels IF I am lucky.
But I do get 40mpg@ 75mph consistenly
But see, this is why I like my tint. Even in the blinding sunny days in texas, I could flip somone off, and they would never know. 5% tint FTW!

Given the middle finger once and it was in a driving situation. the guy actually came out of his car to confront me and punched my window twice. Of course I did not exit the vehicle. I had reached the end of my teather that day but I regret it now.

Police know that, too, when they stop people....that's why they sometimes call for back-ups.

Mike you would hate me then LOL. I consider myself a more 'relaxed' driver and tend to put cruise on the speed limit. I always see folks flying by at 75mph and think to myself, why in such a damn hurry. So just to spite people, I'll hog the left lane at times and folks will sit on my ***. In this case, I do 1 of 2 things. I'll either remain at my speed drawing it out. Or brake check them . I've had quite a few angry faces and middle fingers thrown at me. One fellah even waited till he got off at his exit to throw the middle finger at me, guess he didn't want me following him.
At the end of the day, after all these altercations, I just smile and wave back at those individuals. Call it ignorant bliss .
