OPEN LETTER TO THE D***CHE ON A BIKE WHO ATTACKED MY YARIS THIS MORNING:

1) Riding a bike is hard, and I have respect for you for doing this in an urban area, but that doesn't mean that you can ride in the middle of the road and stop right there when you feel like it, without any regard for the flow of traffic behind you. If you don't know where you're going, pull over to the right and ask someone for directions or something, but don't just stop there in the middle of the road and halt the flow of traffic behind you. That creates a dangerous condition. Move over to the right side of the road, at least.

2) When I honk at you to signal that I'm going to go around you, because clearly you don't realize there are cars behind you, DO NOT, and I repeat DO NOT, turn around and insult me, and let me know how much you hate cars. I don't care how you feel. I'm just trying to get to work, so not a good time to tell me about your feelings. Plus I got other cars behind me, so you see, I need to get out of the way, too.

3) Hating cars is one thing, but when you then turned around and rammed your bike repeatedly into the door of my car to make sure I really understand how much you hate cars, let me tell you dude, you're lucky you didn't get a taste of my baseball bat right across your lame ass face. I don't care if you hate cars, I don't care if your wife left you this morning, I don't care if hurts when you pee lately, or if you haven't had sex since the Reagan administration. In short, I DON'T CARE what your fucking problem is. DON'T EVER TRY AGAIN TO CAUSE DAMAGE TO MY YARIS OR I'll give you a good reason to hate cars.

It's clobberin time if a bike riding douche did that to my car. Just because he rides a bike it doesn't exempt him from the rules of the road.

Whoa! And I thought tomato was a nice girl

*runs and hides under coffee table*

But yeah he was asking for a bat to the head. I bet he would've been dumb enough to take off the helmet first too

Well, that's that made me so mad!!! When I was ridding a bike, I was always under the impression that because you're a slow moving vehicle, you have to ride on the right side of the road? not impeach traffic? And when you want to turn right or left, you signal, so people behind you know what's going on. WTF?!!

@Bobelectrics: No I didn't call the cops. It happened way too fast for that and the property damage is minimal. Thankfully, the guy had nice, thick, mtn bike tires so minimal damage. I reached for my phone to take a picture, of course, as luck would have it, today is the day I forgot to recharge my phone so no battery, no juice to make a phone call. Ugh...

Here's my rant/complaint. I work on computers all day. Well, one perticular model from Dell has been a real pain in the ASS. Its a Dell Inspiron C400 and the damn thing is OLD, can't boot from the USB, has NO CD/FLOPPY. Has a giant docking station with CD but will it boot from that? NO. Tried doing a PXE install and it won't do that either. And also tried installing windows on another PC with it's hard drive using an adapter and THAT didn't work either. Screw this POS.
