Have you ever been in a situation or a confrontation and later on when you're thinking about it, you come up with the perfect comeback? Or something that you should have said that was better than what you actually said?
I had some "words" with this biatch this morning and it was one of those rare moments that I said exactly what I wanted to.
I was driving down a suburban two lane road, coming up to a light. There was a truck stopped in the right lane and I was in the left. I noticed a school bus on the other side of the road with the red lights flashing, so I stopped too.
There were a lot of kids boarding so it took a minute or so. In the meantime, a white van pulls behind me. After a couple of seconds, I hear the a honk behind me, just a quick tap on the horn. So I ignored it, thinking, they have to see that big yellow school bus, it's plain as day.
Then she honks again, this time longer. I point to the school bus.
Another honk, this time even longer. I turn in my seat and look at the van like, "WTF is your problem?"
Then she pulls up next to me in the right lane (can't get by because of the other truck) and yells out her opened window, "DO YOU SEE THE GREEN LIGHT?" My window was still closed so I yelled "DO YOU SEE THE SCHOOL BUS?" she didn't listen and yelled the same thing at me, so I yelled the same thing back. By this time I had rolled down the window.
She said, "WHERE?"
I pointed across the street and said "ARE YOU BLIND? OR WOULD YOU RATHER I RUN OVER THE CHILDREN OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD SO THAT *YOU* CAN MAKE THE GREEN LIGHT?"
At this she finally notices the school bus.
I said, "If you can't see a BIG YELLOW SCHOOL BUS WITH FLASHING RED LIGHTS then you should not be behind the wheel of a car!"
At this point, the school bus shut it's flashers off and I drove up to the (red) light and she changed into the right lane so fast that her tires squealed on the pavement. So I kept my eyes forward and gave her the finger as she drove by.
The only thing I wish I did differently was get her license plate number. I would have loved to find out where she lives and leave a big "school crossing" sign in the middle of her windshield.
