Funny story of the day Feel free to post your funny story here, but you gotta hear this...
Every day on the way to work I take the same route. This route has been planned out after many many many different trial and error sessions until finally I found a way to cut off 15 minutes off of my commute safely. Anyhow...
There is this one particular light that I always leave with a smile, why? Because I end up racing the same old dude every time I get there. For some strange reason, I pass him on the same strip of road, about 1 mile before I get to the light... the light turns red and the bastard gets to catch up to me. The fun hasn't begun yet...
So he catches up to me, when he gets to the read light. But, when he gets there, he doesn't stay in the same lane as me and the rest of the guys. He gets into a lane that opens up just for the light, and then his lane is forced to merge with mine right after the light. So, his goal for the past month has been to get in front of me in a race, for once and all, and hes tried it numerous times. Best part is coming up...
So the guy has to be in his 40's... he looks at me with this pissed off look everytime like "you have no right to pass me". And he moves his van up one-full-carlength ahead of mine... into the intersection just so he can get a head start. Its so obvious this red faced dude has a vendeta against me.
So we take off the red light, and I always let him get a little bit of a head start until I switch off the overdrive and hit full throttle. I always speed up just enough so the poor guy thinks he might make it until I go all out and take the lane.
Best part about this? Well, the lame arse is driving a mid-90's aqua Ford Windstar Minivan.
