I hook bottles of Grey Poupon at them in a graceful arc that once viewed can only be described as an aesthetic masterpiece.

If someone is tailgating me where I feel as though they won't stop in time if I have to break, I will downshift 2 or 3 times really quickly and my car will slow down drastically without any break lights. That usually keeps them off

Well i would of yelled what i was thinking out the window but I doubt they would'a heard me over the sound so i opted for sign language.

I do understand what you're saying but in the heat of the moment I occasionally take the low road, feels good sometimes.

And even if I didn't - that's still tasteless in my opinion.

I usually dont have this problem because I dont dawdle and most people wont keep up. If I am taking my time I either keep out of the fast lane or am very happy to move aside out of the way of someone wanting to go faster or pass me.

Nothing worse than people who stay in the left lane with no one in front of them. I hate having to pass someone on the right.

You can remove the picture from Photobucket or wherever it's being hosted.

Agreed, but that picture's appearance in his original post is likely by way of it having been saved onto his PC and then uploaded to a site like Photobucket and then linked to his post. He should be able to remove the image from his Photobucket (or similar) account and it will then cease to display in his posting here.

That is just wrong.

Some people have no respect for those less fortunate.

I googled. I don't own retard central. Really. I feel idiot just for posting the pic, imagine if I owned a site about it. I can't remove the image.

Any admins, could you delete it?

If you right click the image and copy the URL from where the image is hosted - it is that site, which is why I said what I did, meaning it's not in his Photobucket account

The understanding of the word "maturity" seems to be clouded or misunderstood.

You have to realize that the majority of people doing stupid stuff are too stupid to know it, realize it, or just don't care.

After that realization, everything becomes clearer and your desire to "get even" or "teach a lesson" is not worth the effort.

Quit trying to change stupid people. There are too many out there.
