37. This does seem to happen more and more as someone else pointed out |

My husband and I were driving on the interstate and traffic was heavy. There was a construction zone coming up and the lanes narrowed. Long story short, we couldn't get over in time (along with a lot of other folks). People in the next lane were taking turns letting people in - then it was our turn and instead of stopping, some kid in an SUV gunned his engine, shouted obscenities and spit in the passenger window where I was sitting and squealed past us. I am sure he thought my husband and I were a couple of old farts and social Darwinism would prevail.
I think the hubby would have let it go except for the fact that this asshole spit on me. Not that he got out of the car or anything - however he did floor the Infinity and smoke the guy's ass. A new SUV may be a status-y sort of thing in some circles, but it just doesn't quite make the cut when it comes to acceleration. I believe we left him open-mouthed about 5 cars back. Last we saw he was just a pair of faint headlights on the horizon. It was a good day for the tribal elders...and a bad day for bad-mannered punks in SUVs. Carp;
