Try that on a cop.
Drive a Johne Deere tractor with duals on it down the road pulling a 14 foot wide disc at 28 miles per hour with no turn outs for 5 miles and see how many people think you are number one, and don't mind yelling at you out there windows. Of course a 225 horse tractor engine running wide open makes it hard to understand the complements they are yelling at you. I think its "I love your cool tractor".
So in the past week I've been flicked off about 3 times. How do you deal with it?
All three were from people who can't merge for sh!t and I get the finger wtf....
I am a UPS driver in a big slow truck so from time to time I get the bird from people.
The other day I was delivering on Highway 240. It was garbage day, which meant that the driveways were blocked by garbage cans. Since there is no shoulder on the road, I have no choice but to turn my flashers on, stop, and get out and move the cans so that I can pull into the driveway I am delivering to. Unfortunately, this caused the person behind me to have to wait a few extra seconds so once the oncoming traffic had passed he burned rubber and flipped me the bird as he passed me. Ok, whatever. The fun part happened a few minutes later and a mile down the road when I pulled into the driveway of my next delivery..... with a package for the same guy who had flipped me off! His eyes got huge and frantic when he saw me (6-1, 260 lbs) get out of the truck. I puffed out my chest, got a mean intense look on my face, walked straight at him at a very fast pace, handed him his package...and then smiled and said "you have a nice day, sir" and walked away.
Here's how I deal with it. Every time I get flipped off I go to Hillsboro and drive around until I see the same poor schmuck I cut off last time and get him again. You should see the look on his face when I blow past him and then flip him off. So far, I've got the same guy like three times in the last week alone...
What was the Cops response?Try that on a cop.

3MTA3 that gave me a chuckle, I see what you did there.
'Flipping the bird' is a stupid, infantile display of anger - a last act of defiance or an empty threat - I don't know which but either way accomplishes nothing.
