I was goin to get somethin to eat on my lunch break and was sittin at a light. then this red little paseo pulls up next to me then starts inchin forward to get a jump on the light. i think nothin of it and jus sit there, legally behind the line, and he keeps inchin... and the other light is yellow and he keeps inching and now he's like almost half way through the intersection. the light changes and i just accelerate a little bit faster than usual and making no eye contact i jus keep goin and i see he's still tryin to pass me and he tries to turn into my back door in order to miss the snowbank he's driving into before he jus slams the brakes. i'm like, uhhhh, what ya think that u were gonna pass me. so now he's riding my ***. so i decide to be mr. law abiding citizen and at the next stop sign to take a little time at the stop sign.

well i get this all the time,this is like one of like 10 times this has happen'd to me all the time, i hate all these jerkoffs...well thanks for lettin me tell my story, safe driving to all u during this holiday season

i really really want..

someone to make one of those wallstreet signs that have a message that flashes from right to left for the car. Hammacher schlemer has one for the car but it only says thanks, help and sometinhg else lame. i want one that we can type our own personal messages like F*ck you, and Eat this S*ithead...just my opinion.

Those have been around for a long time. When I was in high school, the school had one in the lobby, and a friend of mine had to program it to say different things occasionally (like club meetings and crap).

hell yeah

not to advocate trying to kill the jerk tailgating you, but man that would be handy

i saw a Honda CBR with this trick license plate conversion.
basically he had a button next to his throttle and when someone is riding his back tire he presses it and some bright *** highbeams shoot out directly aimed at the driver. basically the plate lifts and behind it was a high power foglight. kisk *** conversion.

The one that I'm talking about was only 4-5" high, a few inches deep, and 2-3' long.

if you know where i can get one that i can wire into my car let me know... i actually got my hands on one similar to the one you are talking about and ran it off a power inverter, but it was too damn bulky and nothing kept it stuck to the windshield because it was too heavy. so to be SPECIFIC i want one like the one you are talking about but lighter and maybe only a foot or 2 feet long... i've done my fair share of looking and there is really nothing that i have found that is light enough to stay up.

Jules

the reason i don't have the other one was because i hit a pothole and it fell from the hooks i had it on and broke. (bad pothole ruined my rim) or else i might still have it

I don't know where to get them from (it's been a long time since I was in high school), so if you haven't found one, then maybe they aren't made any more. How about hacking the one from Hammacher Schlemer and changing the message?
