Well it’s taken me 45 years (well maybe 30, because the first 15 years probably wouldn’t count) to reach one of my life long goals,...
I am now officially recognized as an Intolerant Redneck

It seems I hurt the feelings of a Lance Armstrong wanabe that was hogging the road downtown and running redlights. When I was finally able to pass him I graciously let him know how I felt about him by using a universally recognized hand gesture to express my displeasure

I then pulled in to Taco Bell drive-thru to place an order. Here comes "Lance" down the wrong way on the drive through looking for me (I didn’t know he cared) This time I used both hands with middle finger extended just in case he couldn’t see well or may have misinterpreted it the first time. His lips were moving so I rolled down the passenger window so I could hear him better, and we exchanged some various pleasantries mostly a lot of words with F and A in them. As he rode his bike out of the drive-thru he called me an Intolerant Redneck A-Hole.

I gotta say I feel liberated, I no longer have to fake tolerant behavior anymore. The older I get the less tolerant I become. I should not, do not, and can not tolerate stupidity in any form

Any way just had to get that of my chest

Taco Bell in the morning? Are you an intolerant redneck who hates himself?

In texas it's common to have ethnic food for breakfast. It's the weirdest damn thing you've ever seen.

WTG Airscrew!

Congratulations! You should come to the Philly area and deal with the idiots on the road here (in any transportation vehicle).

My favorites are the husband supplied-rich wives in Land Rovers and Mercedes on the Cell Phone in between Shopping Sprees and Salon pamperings!

Taco Bell is as ethnic as dog food.

Actually this was yesterday evening on my way to the bowling alley. And Natty is right, Taco Bell is by no stretch of the imagination ethnic food, that’s like calling a Big Mac a hamburger. Taco Bell is convenient on my way to the bowling alley and after I apply liberal amounts of Tabasco sauce its edible

Oh good for you!

I've done that on alot more then one occasion. usually with me yelling to them
"Hey jacknut, get off the friggen road"

I find those Lance Armstrong wannabies infuriating. Half tempted just to run em over when they insist on hogging the road and refusing to give way for faster traffic

Ok thats a lie. Im 3/4 tempted to just run em over.

Particularly when they run in packs its even more infuriating.

If they arent going to at least do the speed limit then either pull off on to the side fo the road so people can pass or get off the road entirely.

Hmmm here's an idea.
Pull in font of them and slow down. right about when they are right behind you. lock up the brakes and let em kiss the back end of your vehicle.
Then sue em for the damage to your vehicle

Casper, we have plenty of those idiots here in Austin. The scarest thing by far is a woman in a large SUV or the big 4 door dually pickup trucks. Amazing how they can whip those big things in traffic at 65-70 mph, on the cell phone and doing their makeup

I just try to stay out of their way.

A couple of days ago I watched what must have been an aspiring female brain surgeon pull up to order at LJS in an extended cab , four wheel drive Ford PU. The fun started when she tryed to make the turn from ordering to the pick-up window. She got wedged between the LJS sign and the curb . All the time steadily yapping on the cell. Was pure comedy as she took the paint off about 1/2 of one side of hubby`s new ride and didn`t have enough sense to realize that she was in a four wheel drive and could have easily just pulled over the curb to get he peace train straightened out. Pure comedy.

When I see somebody yaking on the phone while they're driving it irritates the living s**t out of me. For some reason, it doesn't bother me when I do it though...

Seen a woman once in SUV talkin on cell phone, applying makeup with mirror in the visor in between sips of coffee on the dashboard, serving from lane to lane in the morning........

a back seat full of bud tall neck empties is all the ammo any redneck requires for any situation.

seriously.

a remarkably effective and accurate weapon of liberation.
