Generally when someone does something stupid I just smile at them and wave, **** happens and generally they know they stuffed up so why ruin your day and theirs.

One day I was merging into another lane on the freeway in light trafic, it was clear with plenty of room for me to get in, I indicated for a good 3 seconds which was just enough time for the person behind me in the other lane to close the gap and get in my blind spot.

So I'm half way through merging when I see him and jump back into my lane. He turns out to be a middle aged man who proceeds to beeps his horn and make lots of rude jestures for the next mile, obviously extreemly pissed off. In response I smile and wave like big bird then proceed to merge behind him without any nutters cutting me off.

Two miles up the freeway he is just ahead of me and takes the same turnoff I do, we stop at the lights with me behind him when I notice him looking in his rear vision mirror so once again I smile and wave. He then proceeds ahead of me to take the exact same route I am taking, right turn, turn right, left turn, his driving is becomming more erratic and paniced as he thinks I'm stalking him. In the end he takes a corner at an intersection at the last second in order to 'shake me' screeching tires all the way.

I laughed the rest of the way to work . Instant Karma is a *****.
