Drive-by insults

[internutt]

I do not know if this is a cultural thing, but here in the UK its fairly popular. Basically a chav/boy racer will drive past someone and shout an insult at them as they drive past. Most of the time it doesn't even work because the person being shouted at is listening to their ipod/the driver is going to fast so you only catch a few syllables of what they are shouting. Its not even decent insults, when I get it they shout "Get a haircut", which is just silly since my hair doesn't hurt them at all.

Its victimless sure, but I find the activity very immature, if there's one thing I expect drivers to be its mature! Watch the road, not the path looking for Otaku's/goths/girls! Is this a UK only thing? What has been shouted at you, if anything?

People simply honk their horns at passers-by and laugh if they flinch. Its pathetic.

Nope.

But if it ever happened, I would pick up a brick and throw at the windshield.

 

[SmilingKitsune]

~sigh~ This happens in Ireland all the time, the numbr of times I've been told to get a haircut is almost ridiculous, but I've heard much worse, which I shall not tarnish the escapist with by repeating.

Oh, thanks for letting me in on the colour of my own hair, you morons.

Agreed. Do they have nothing better to do than to heckle somone minding their own business at a bus stop or just walking down the sidewalk?

I've had it happen once when I was biking home from school. A hundred meters later, both of the idiots were pulled over by cops for speeding in a school zone and then the bag of weed was discovered... I almost felt sorry for them... almost.

I actualy like them. Without them, I'd have never discovered my sexuality, and would have spent the rest of my life living a lie.

There will always be people who live their lives through other's misery. Just dont mind them and eventually they are going to understand that their actions cause more harm to themselves then to others.

I've almost crashed my bike because of these people a few times, and my racer (peddle bike) goes bleeding fast down the A48, then some jerk screams something out his window, startles me, take my eyes off the road, anything could happen, why I practiced memorising number plates.

If you're actually bothered by this then you deserve to be insulted.

Isn't being (badly) insulted better than being shot at? (ie. a real drive by)

This guy has more class than all of us combined. I applaud you.

Yes. We don't have drive by insults in America. We have a drive by. I would take a drive by insult over a drive by anyday.

I get it a lot, its just like "WOW, I never knew |:" Stopped caring when I was about 10.

I once yelled "YOU'RE A FAT HOOKER" to a lady as I drove by once.

I felt justified as she was really a prostitute, and I wouldn't have been able to put my arms around her if I tried. You know, the kind that you could share with 2 of your friends and still not know they were there? ... K I'll stop.
