I looked at that again after you said that and yep, that was definitely an intentional squeeze play. How many times I've seen high speed chases and wondered why truckers don't do that more often. It seems to me the satisfaction of helping to stop a bad guy would be worth the damage to the truck.
#7. Years back I looked at a job. When I parked on the street, my back end was past the guy's property line. When I came out, the neighbor had pulled his car up within an inch of my bumper. My client noted how this guy did it all the time. I left my truck there, got a ride home and returned with my other truck and parked it a few inches from his back bumper then got another ride home. In the morning both my trucks had abandoned vehicle tags, 72 hours to move. I moved my front truck and replaced it with the car. That afternoon I switched the back truck and drove it home. This went on for several days. One morning after I moved the vehicle I wanted for the day the neighbor sprinted out, jumped in his car and raced away. During the entire ordeal, I called the PD, and spoke to the officers who tagged me. They found it hilarious and quit putting the notices on my vehicles. My client and the neighbor never got along. After he passed, my client and the neighbor's wife became good friends.
That's a great story. Mine's not as funny but still good.
a car parked right up to my front bumper but the front of his car was still blocking an alley a small bit. I was pissed and had to get my kids to school so I got in my truck, dropped it in low and pushed his car with my truck ~6 feet so it was completely blocking the alley. Then I backed up and went on my way. :)
My wife told me that today. I am just a tiny bit too young for that show. But my wife is 3 years older than I, and she remembers watching it. No, I don't call her old woman. She doesn't know how to shoot any of my guns, but she knows how to use a knife, and I have to sleep sometime.
I like #6, but the angle doesn't show the Biden-Harris 2020 bumper sticker.
ReplyDelete#6 FWD allows you to get stuck in a more inaccessible place....
ReplyDeleteOr the corollary .. What's the difference between 2wd and 4wd? With 4wd, you're further away from help when you finally get stuck !!

ReplyDelete#6 - walk up to the car and ask the driver if their name in Center....Hi, Center.

#3. Yeah, finding out that real life doesn't accommodate liberal human ideals.
ReplyDeleteSo is it Mondays that cause dumbass or it's just more likely to present itself on Mondays?

ReplyDeleteI've been laughing at #8. Good on the trucker for stopping that car, and he tore the door right off it.

#6 has me thinking besides calling AAA et al, how would you get that vehivle off the rock?
ReplyDeleteA Jack-all, and maybe piece of plywood or a plank to reduce the damage to the bottom of the vehicle, if said vehicle had jackable bumpers....
DeleteDon't ask...
I can't believe Dwayne Hickman is dead. Long live Dobie Gillis. Maynard G. Krebs too!
