Default Yesterday...........

I'm milling around in the C5 and I catch a light where no one is in front of me........ so I hit the 2step and launch the car...... not bad it spins the toyo's some and I row through the gears and easy off of her when I hit 3rd gear.....

So the next light I'm in the left hand turn lane..... some Old dude pulls up next to me and says... Nice car buddy!!! I say thanks.... He says " you are a FKing ******* ...... your car is too loud, and you shouldn't be driving it...... Oh I see you have been overseas(he must have been reading my license plate).... I wish you got your legs blown off so you couldn't drive.. Okay so I'm mad for a split second... then I realize " I've done nothing wrong and I drive a vette .......... WTF I laughed at him and rolled the window up while he was bitchin!! seriously?

Yeah some people are straight dicks when it comes to "spirited"driving on the streets
Still he had no right to disrespect you for serving overseas.

Me too!! You just can't trust those old guys,but if their old enough to be from the muscle car era then they would dig it...oops giving away my age here.

You should have told that old fart (no offense Fartpipe) to go bag his azz.

No matter what the case, you should never disrespect someone who served for our country. The guy was obviously not in his right mind.

Old guy didn't get a proper beat down when he was younger...to teach him some respect/humility.

Obviously he didn't serve (must have dodged the draft as well).

Damn...... not sure what to even say to that except I can't imagine how miserable that person was; unless they were mentally ill.
No sane/healthy person responds like that.
