I ventured out not too long ago on a mission for eye drops and toothpaste. Mission was accomplished successfully, BTW.
Here is a crude diagram of the intersection involved in this incident:
Basically, an X closed in on three sides.
I was on the street at the bottom of the X, turning right onto the street on the east side of the X. A semi truck was moving southwest to northeast on the X to merge onto the same street I would be going down. I had a yield sign meaning I would have to yield to the truck.
So I drove slowly and eventually came to a complete stop because the truck wasn't moving too fast, as trucks tend to do when they're accelerating from a complete stop.
Some fuckwad behind me gave me a nice, long horn blast, the kind normal drivers would reserve for an emergency like a car accident unfolding in front of them. That's the thanks I got for following the rules of the road.
A little further down the street, there was a crosswalk and an elderly man making his way across the street in it. So I slowed down and stopped for him. The fuckwad was still behind me, but didn't honk this time. That's good, because I didn't feel like playing Let's Cream The Old Fart and I might've done something I'd regret if he did.
So, to the fuckwad who honked at me while I was letting a semi truck merge, I say the same thing to all the other fuckwads who decide to be fuckwads toward me while behind the wheel: Hope you enjoyed my middle finger. With the way you drive, you'll be seeing a lot of them.
