Getting even

[Tirebiter]

I'm just curious to hear forum member's experiences on their favorite methods of “getting even” with those who have “trespassed” against you. It doesn’t matter whether it comes from first hand experience or it’s based on information and belief but please don’t just make stuff up, eh?

I’ll start with this:
Two fellows were in a black Honda Prelude in the left turn lane on a busy city street in Glendale California with lots of traffic. Without warning the driver cut across three lanes of traffic so he could turn right. Other driver’s had to lock up their brakes to avoid a collision and most honked their horns at him. His passenger held a big foam rubber finger out the window while the driver used his own finger. The Honda had the letters “AP” in the rear wind screen.

About five minutes later I pulled into a shopping center and the gods smiled upon me. There sat the little Honda with AP in the rear glass. I saw the two occupants walking into the K-Mart store so I pulled alongside the car and fetched a can of aircraft paint stripper from my trunk. I printed “Drive Safely” on the hood and “I am a dic*head on the driver’s door. Then I pulled to the far side of the lot and watched through binoculars. When they returned the driver put both his hands on his head and then fell to his knees.

Priceless.

wow...

I'm glad you feel so happy about this, because just reading it makes me feel ill.

Time to go get the popcorn.

If you think that's something to be proud of, the future does not look bright...

From back in my mind I recall this poster as the person who had a hobby of blocking cellphone signals, and also liked to share his stories of being a jerk on a motorcycle.

With antics like this, I'm not even sure if a future is guaranteed.

Have a problem reading about my so called “antics” boy? Tough titty. Exercise your freedom of choice and use the ignore feature instead of whining about it here. Just like I exercise my freedom of choice when I use a jammer on some jerk who has no better manners or sense than to disrupt someone’s dinner with their cell phone drivel. Get over it. There is absolutely, positively nothing you can do about it.

I understand that the new jammers will allow a 911 to go through but they aren’t here yet so I haven’t tested them.

And understand this: There is almost no way to be caught and more and more businesses are using them. You and Paris Hilton better get used to it.

Unless you admit to breaking the law on a public forum........

Wife's brother (future brother-in-law or FBIL) this happened before we got married)), his fiance and the two of us went out to some dance establishment (This was before I realized I'm not that great of a dancer...)...

FBIL's ex was "following" him around all the time, so, sure enough, after we get to the place, she and her girl-friend show up...just to keep an eye on the two of them.

Future wife (FW) says, "You know what her car looks like?" Then the wheels start turning. I come up with the valve-stem-tool trick, only I don't completely remove the stem, I let it sloooooooowly bleed out...all four tires.

While FBIL's ex is preoccupied with spying on her ex...I head outside, loosen all four stems, walk back in and the four of us party...

Keep in mind, only the FW and I know what was done...

After we have a nice night, we leave...FBIL's ex and friend leave sometime after we're gone...

A few weeks later, FBIL calls his sister and wants to know if WE know anything about his ex's four flat tires. It seems that they stayed long enough and the broad has about as much sense as a dead possum, that when they got ready to leave, they saw the tires LOW ON AIR and STILL DECIDED to drive 20 miles to home anyways...she ends up tearing up four tires and four rims on some POS GM product. And the FBIL is such a nice guy, he BUYS replacements, NEW!

I owed him ... I just let the wife explain we she was handing him 300US.

Women, they'll get you into trouble all the time...we're just too lazy to stop and argue with 'em!

It's a tough one. The incident described would have made me furious. Once I was driving cab, had a big guy in the back seat, sorta dozing after a night on the town, a Lincoln Towncar or some such cut in front of me flagrantly and I had to hit the brakes. The guy slid off the back seat and banged his nose on the back of the front seat. He was pissed.

The two frat boy looking pea-brains saw this and squealed like little girls about it. I wanted to bash them, especially after the tough guy blamed me for it and stiffed me on a $10 fare. I called the dispatchers who called the cops, I stood guard with my 5 D-cell flashlight telling the guy to wait in the cab, which he did surprisingly. After 20 minutes or so I said F-It; what was I going to do, wait 2 hours or bash the guy with my flashlight/club and land in jail?

The guys I really wanted to bash were the pukes in the Towncar. Still, taking revenge can yield grief. Tempting, but it's trouble.

instant karma's gonna get you....

You and the Honda driver/pass are both disturbed. Taking on life with a huge chip on your shoulder is utterly useless. Sorry.

As much as I would love to do what you described in my older years I learned to not give *******s on the road any benefit of reaction other than a wave and smile which I think pisses them off more than anything. Problems with ignorant drivers are too frequent to deal with them at any level.

That happened to me on Tuesday....crossed in front of me and into Wal-mart after following me for about 1/4 mile...two motorcyclist right in front of me close to being wiped out.

Saw the little punk at the gas pump...asked him about his crossing two lanes...denied it....i got a little closer and he said " I didn't see you"
I turned to leave and be began a tirade of abusive language.....a lot of language in fact, I would put money on it he was having a fit.

Two 'large' friends had been behind me and saw it all....were fixing to drag me off him, they said

I must have looked ....anyway, my friend, the local police Sgt, tells me that I should have called the police and filed a complaint against him, just as a cop would do if they had witnessed it.
Especially with two witnesses to confirm it.

But...back to TIREBITER'S post...your my age.....you really did that?

I know evil thoughts of revenge cross your mind, but I do think you went a little too far...vandalism, damage to property....to say nothing of the possibility the car park has a video camera...if your on video, your going to get charged even though you plead aggravated intent.

Also, car could be mom or dad's....not fair to them...and yes, the punks should get charged....this is another reason I carry a movie cam in my vehicles.

Video evidence goes a long way in court.

Any lawyers here ?

A few years ago I was driving the fire engine non-emergency to go check an old lady's smoke detector. As I prepared to turn left a Ford Ranger cut across from the lane that goes straigt and cut me off. I locked up the brakes and my Lt. yanked on the air horn at which time an arm with an extended middle finger came out of each window of the Ranger.

Due to the air horn blowing, drivers thought the fire engine needed the right of way and the cars pulled to the side to yield, except for the Ranger speeding through them. The fire engine continued on with the cars falling in behind us.

At the next intersection the Ranger pulled into a lane to turn left. As the engine continued past them going straight, they were so occupied with continuing to flip us off that they turned left into the path of an on coming flat bed truck carrying concrete blocks.

I saw what happened in my mirror, we turned the engine around and had to use the Jaws of Life to cut them out of the Ranger that had been rolled onto its side! As we were cutting them out of the truck we were telling the police officers and the ambulance crew about what happened leading up to the accident. All of the cars that had earlier pulled over also stopped with the drivers telling P.D. about the Ranger weaving through traffic and cutting the fire engine off.

Those guys had I.V.s started on them with the largest catheters we had, 14 gauge. P.D explained to the driver that due to the injuries to the passenger, he was looking at felony traffic charges. Plus they both admitted to being high on pot at the time.

I know it's a long post, but if that's not karma, I don't know what is

You believe that "what goes around comes around"?

Then be so kind to explain why most of the world's richest people got to where they are by screwing others without ever having to answer for it.
