    Lol wut. If a car doesn’t let me cross even though I have the priority as a pedestrian, I usually hit the side mirror or the car. They can go fuck themselves with their overpriced rolling boxes. People get so mad when you touch their cars. I like it.

      You don’t even need to cause any damage or even leave a fingerprint and they get so angry. Its kinda funny.

      I see so much road rage, but usually from extended family so I try not to start an argument that will lead to someone storming off in a strop. I find it funny that an adult can get so angry, but it upsets my partner.

      I often walk or cycle past a school and a daycare, and here they have recently “upgraded roads” which means that they have scraped away a few pedestrian crossings. I 100% do shitty tricks to cars driving too fast or not giving enough space, especially if I am moving around the time kids are active. (Around here kids are still allowed to walk/cycle from school and often play around the town.)

      I have made air kicks, always do when necessary, but sadly so far they have missed…

      I usually hit the side mirror or the car.

      Until someday you’ll get a well deserved surprise.

        You’re an actual psychopath and you should be locked away before you kill someone

        Lol, if touching a side mirror gets you that angry you need to look in a mirror and think about whats wrong with you. Also I’m a carpenter, I most often have my tools with me, I could do way worse than “hitting” a side mirror if you really need something to get upset about. I bet you get half hard looking at your rolling box ^^

          Unpopular opinion: Cars are expensive. Vandalizing them in response to an inconvenience seems like an overreaction.

            It’s symmetrical though. Sort of like a pedestrian risking death if they inconvenience car drivers

            Cutting the priority to pedestrian isn’t an inconvenience tho. It’s straight up code violation. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to be a priority for the police 🤷🏻

            True. However given that they’re the largest “lifestyle” contributor to climate change (as opposed to things in the agricultural sector), vandalizing one in response to it simply existing seems like a slight under reaction, if anything.

        A medal for meritorious public service and right of first refusal to carry out the sentence against the ecocidal narcissists? That’d be a well deserved surprise for any non-carhole who’s been making carholes angry.
