I have a horrible habit of keeping a bumper ahead of the vehicle next to me, just hoping it turns into a race.

i regularly roll into poll position at the lights but it annoys the hell out of me when a tosser on a scooter creeps thru & parks in front of me before the lights change. at one particular set of lights it was very common to have a scooter do this & one particular morn'n i knocked the idiot off his scooter. cops showed up but lucky for me the tosser didn't have a licence so i wasn't fined. one day i'm going to drive over one of these annoying lil sh..s

Haha, been awhile since I heard the term "tosser".
"Bloody Shirtlifter" is a good one too.

you wouldn't believe how many words i went thru that i didn't get the [Edited by Moparts - Family Friendly Site - Keep it clean] on the proof read. tosser was close enough to get the ok from moparts. so many common phrases are banned on this site, even words we hear on national tv progs get banned. this site is like being in a 30 years ago church sometimes.

Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

I do it too. I holeshot a newer Corvette next to me at a light while driving my 5-speed rusty pickup truck.

Of course he wasn't expecting me to do that and showed me his taillights right away.

My buddy is always leaving off the bottom at stops lights. Everyone keeps waving back at him.

Speaking of playing the finish line on the highway...
Nine grown (physically) men in a '74 Winnabago traveling the ohio turnpike in route to a slot car race. "sliding" the front tires at every bridge, then opening up the unsilenced thermo-bog.

All That was after "treatment"
