Wow...so I was at school today, and (okay, I guess this can't really be blamed towards the driver) somehow, this kid's van (I think it might have been an old Chevrolet van or something...couldn't get) randomly explodes or something, and the whole car bursts into flames. I never saw it while it happened, but I saw the aftermath: the whole car had been completely charred. Poor kid. But a few minutes later this other kid (he owns a black 240 coupe) decides to be stupid and try and drift in the parking lot. Wow, that sure was cool, I mean endangering the lives of everyone in the parking lot and their car. Luckly, no one got hurt (or their cars), and the 240 was promptly stopped by a lightpole...car was probably completely totaled. And as if that hadn't been enough to bother me through the whole day, right as I was pulling out of school with some friends to go to lunch, some old lady in a Toyota Avalon apparently smashed into some BMW. 4 wrecked cars within 500 ft. of each other in the same day.

But that stupid kid in the 240 bothers me even now

You just got to be alert at all times. I always get merged on by trucks not looking and sometimes RV's.

And drifting in the parking lot is just plain stupid!

If you saw the kid drifting in the parking lot hit the pole, you should have gone over to him and laughed in his face. Told him it served him right and that he's a shame to the rest of us in the community... see if he's stupid enough to do it again when he knows it's not cool.

yea we see that from time to time. at one of our club meets, there were like 40+ 240s showed up, but about half of them were rice, and they were all doing what they thought was "drifting" in the Taco Cabana parking lot.... *sigh* stupid!

Ha, I know exactly the drifting you're talking about.The hitting-the-gas-late-in-the-turn powerslide dealy? Jackasses around here think they're awesome with their "project silvias" because they can't do that in their Integras/Civics.

Err...sorry. The guy in the 240 is different from the guy in the van. But yeah, the guy with the 240 is a total deuche too...Even from before he got his car. Seeing him peel out of the parking lot every day after school only fueled my hatred of him, and now this!

Berate/embarass him publicly.Nothing hurts more than the truth like being a moron and sucking at driving/life in general.I'm sorry but if some schmuck wasted his car while trying to show off, he would be laughed at everytime he opened his mouth had he gone to my high school. His social life would have = over.

While at Circuit City this week I saw a lady pull up in a very shiny, new Jaguar XK8 convertible. Now, keeping in mind that this is probably about $80K in automobile here...

She decides that instead of walking her boney *** in to the store, she's going to drive the Jag down the steep ramp at the loading dock. As I'm walking towards the store, I here the distinct sound of Coventry's best steel crunching against the concrete of the loading dock.

The lady driving didn't really seem to care about what she did to the car, and the hell of it was that the stuff she was picking up was so small one of the sales guys could have carried it out to her in front of the store (it was a small desktop computer).

The poor Jag...I think that kitty wanted to come home with me. I would have taken care of it.

Yesterday some old ******* ran a red light at about 50 miles per hour in his 4500lb mercedes and missed my front bumper by about 8 inches. Lets hear it for short attention spans!

Talk about bad drivers...it's TERRIBLE in Atlanta...I was gettin my Ohio license switched over to Georgia at the DMV (which by the way is the most run-down, sorry excuse for a DMV I have ever seen with a sewage drain about 30 feet from the outdoor waiting room...) Well, during the 3 hour wait, I got to watch people take their driving test (the cones). I witnessed a kid in his parent's BMW back over a cone, and still get his license!

two words:

shooting rampage

While i was getting out of class yesterday afternoon, i walked to my car. Which was parked tail-in in a small off-street parking meter lot. So i get inside, turn on the car, when i see to my left a 6th gen Celica about to pull out. So i wait for her. This dumbass girl could not figure out for the life of her how to PULL OUT OF A DAMN SPACE! She put the car in reverse, WITH HER WHEELS COMPLETELY STRAIGHT and backed up until she was a foot away from this old civic that was parked on the other side. Utterly confused, she put the car in drive and pulled into her space. She put it in reverse WITH HER WHEELS COMPLETELY STRAIGHT and proceeded to back out , again meeting the civic about a foot away. Then she pulls back into her space, pissed off and befuddled.

I was laughing my a$$ off so hard. She finally let me go by because i had to wait and watch her do this 3 times over. The funny part was there was a empty space to her left, and she had ample room to turn her fu*kin wheels.

AH. MORONS.

no drifting in parkin lot while ppl are there is stupid.

you do it when there is nobody around and usualy in the middle of nowhere.

that way you don't hurt anyone but yourself or you car.
