Now that's really funny

and certainly less sinister than mine. Good show !

Do you have any notion what that AP symbol means? If not: call the Glendale Mercedes dealership or ask the Glendale Police Department. A Google search might make things clearer to you.

Scum like that should be drenched in aircraft stripper instead of their cars.

trying to get revenge is a waste of energy. bitterness saps your strength. nasty folks do themselves in.

about the worst thing i will do is tell another person of my bad experience with someone if they are considering doing business with the *********.

trying to take actual action can land you in hot water.

like in sports they say the retaliation for a flagrant foul is often the one that is caught.

taking the high road allows you to have your self respect.

I agree with every single word you said. This one wasn't planned, it just dropped into my lap.

Oh yes I did. Would I do it again? I don't know. I was pretty pissed off at the time.

Dude, you're not so bad after all.

I've replaced the middle digit signal with a wave. Easier on my head.

I hope this isn’t too off subject since I started this thread and have thoroughly enjoyed most of your input.

I have learned that the only proper thing to hate is injustice. However, I do not suffer “bullies” well. I am pretty much retired now but the shop where I sometimes work is owned by an old friend I grew up with in Texas. He is six foot seven and three hundred pounds of muscle. His hands are so big that he can pick up our MB batteries in each one. He is rarely picked on. I am a five foot seven inch 185 pound “fire plug” with arms as big as most people’s legs since I have spent my life working out regularly. I’m not picked on much either but my pony tail that reaches down into the middle of my back has sometimes caused me problems.

I go anywhere I want without fear because I learned that a look in the eye, a smile and a nod of recognition will break the ice. They don’t see a rich gringo or cracker. They just see another human being. Lots of conversations have been started that way.

yesterday my mrs. was outside on our deck enjoying the nice weather. a bird flew over and happened to need to do something that birds do. so what the bird did landed on the mrs's head... but it could as easily have fallen in her lap.

knowing what to grip and use and what to wash off is everything.

I did something just a few days ago.. Theres this guy at school that messed with me all year, well, I ran into his ex-girlfriend that he cheated on about a week before school was out. We covered a USED urinal cake in chocolate exlax and she wrapped it up gave it to him, making it look like she forgave him. He called her really pissed later..and we both just started laughing into the phone.. He got even more pissed when we told him it was from a gas staion bathroom! A while before that I also took the gas cap off his pickup and put it in the back, cost him $40 before he figured out what the check engine light was telling him.

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!

When I was a kid an old man pulled into a spot my Mom was trying to get into, he was a jerk about it. It was in the middle of winter in the frozen canadian north so she went into a department store and bought some cold cream and smeard it onto his windshield where if froze. Showed him!

I was bored one overcast day at the mall.. So I went out into the parking lot.. pulled my hat down close and put all the windshield wipers on all the cars in one section(200 cars ish) up... It rained for the rest of the day.. Inconvienced on a grand scale

!990 in Sunland California. There was a video store across the street from my shop and it was 9 PM. I was waiting to cross the street when a Volvo station wagon turned left right in front of a motorcycle coming the other way. He slid to a stop a few feet before a collision happened. The woman driving parked in front of the store and he pulled in behind her. She got out still yakking on her cell phone (in those days it was a giant Motorola “brick”). The biker said “Lady, you damn near killed me”. Her reply “You were going too fast”.

He ripped the phone out of her hand and smashed it into the concrete. She ran into the video store and he pulled the knife off his belt and put it into both her left side tires. Then he opened her rear door and let her dog out before he rode off.

I was in there for ten minutes and two of the local police were there when I came out. One of them asked me if I had witnessed what had happened so I told them exactly what I saw and heard. Male cop asked for a description so I told him the biker was about nine feet tall, green, and I think he had gills. Becky, the female cop just smiled and said, “Go home David, I think you need the rest”.

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.

I was hoping that this thread would concern retribution for those who did crappy things to others.

Your post seems to be about a little boy who inconvenienced 200 people because you were bored? Maybe you forgot to say what they did to you or others.
