Human being are stupid, they just are.

[Ringo]

Some people are just stupid. You can't fix stupid.

You're so right. For example, some people are just too stupid to figure out Matthew 24:34-Mark 13:30 & Luke 21:32 where Jesus tells us that the re-birth of Israel at the End of this Age would mark the beginning of the Last Generation. Even those proclaiming to be Christians are convinced that Jesus was a liar when He said.."I Tell You The TRUTH,This Generation Will CERTAINLY not pass away Until ALL Of These Things Have Happened". How do I know that even Christians believe Jesus is a liar? That's an easy one. Just listen to all of the Christians telling everyone that our children and grandchildren of future generations are going to suffer the consequences due to our present day failures, etc., etc.. If it wasn't so deadly serious and pathetic, I'd LMAO, instead I just shake my head and must realize "You can't Fix Stupid" regardless of how many times the truth (Word of Christ) is presented to these people.

Using your blind ignorant faith as an excuse to live irresponsibly, and calling anybody that doesn't agree with you stupid, is itself, pretty stupid.

And let me get this out of the way, I am fully aware that had I had the brains to not lay on the horn you wouldn’t be reading this

Actually... if the old fart had the brains to realize he had made a mistake in traffic and let it go at that we wouldn't have been reading this either. But the blame for the confrontation in your driveway lies with the old fart's decision to escalate the honking of a horn in traffic to a full blown physical confrontation.

The fact that you honked your horn (or even laid on it) doesn't excuse or justify the old fart expending the effort to chase you down and then confront you in your own driveway. And quite frankly... if someone did all that and then told me I'd be "seeing" him again I'd take that threat quite seriously.

I carry my gun everyday any way and he knows where I live so changing up my route home won't help (kinda hard to do in Colorado springs without going miles out of the way anyway)I look for his vehicle when i get close to the house but that's about it.

"blind", "Ignorant"???? Go have a conversation with these guys and see who ends up looking blind and ignorant. Stand to Reason

Lol so you defer me to converse with somebody else? Really making your case there bud.

I contend that what most of world calls being stupid is more likely to be considered "being inconsiderate" and I believe that the definitions will bear me out.

Would the older driver been more considerate of your situation or did he not adequately consider the ramification of his actions at the time.
After all you did have your turn signal on, announcing your intentions to turn right. He can turn left in front of you legally as long as he doesn't create a hazardous condition for traffic flow. That being said one needs to consider all the possibilities and how can one do that without being well informed of your driving habits before had. I contend his decision to turn in front of you was ill advised even though lawful since everything could not be considered properly.

It's much more difficult to hide your extreme level of ignorance than it is to acquire knowledge. But to acquire knowledge you would need a brain. It's better for everyone that you don't have a brain, for if you had a brain you would be dangerous.

Oh Ringo... Please forgive me, oh intelligent one, with the brain. I cower in your presence.

At the risk of pissing everyone off...

When someone starts to preach that their religion is the end all/be all I immediately understand what they really are saying is...

"Do it MY way".

And when someone starts to preach that they don't want to hear others preach about how their religion is the end all/be all I understand what they are really saying is:

"I don't want to do it your way... I want you to shut up so I can continue to do it MY way".

In my opinion............ of all the things that are discussed in forums on the internet (or in real life) religion remains the one thing that causes the most dissension .. the most friction... and the most useless use of bandwidth (hot air) ever possible because.........................

No one is going to change anyone elses minds about..... religion!!!!

Do you have your religious beliefs? Wow.. I'm happy for you.

Do you have your beliefs that someone elses religion isn't the one true holy grail? Wow.. I'm happy for you.

Do you not believe in religion at all? Wow... I'm happy for you.

Now.. can you all just stop trying to get everyone else to believe the way you do? Please? Because quite frankly.. I have my own beliefs about life, the universe, and everything (and 42 is NOT the answer) but I am not arrogant enough to try to get anyone else to change their beliefs to match mine.

Believe what you all will... and keep it to yourself. Because your beliefs are no less valid than mine.. even if YOU don't believe the same things I do.

"Now this guy is at least 70, might weigh 130 and is about 5’ 3” While I am 20 years younger, 100 pounds heavier (and can bench press my body weight) and four inches taller and he wants to fight me."

Treo...I now know this much about you. You work in security, 50 years old, 230 pounds, 5'7" and you like to blow your horn.

Think people aren't stupid? I sat parked waiting for my wife and watched a guy walk across 200 yards of blacktop parking lot and trip in THE only pothole in the entire lot. WTF is he looking at?

 

[Riverkilt]

Sounds like roid rage. Old geezer probably just got his monthly hormone replacement therapy testosterone shot and was experiencing a bit of testosterone poisoning...or Alzheimer's. If you took his license plate down call the state MVD and tell them he needs a medical/psych evaluation to see if he's still fit to be driving.

As far as the horn goes...they can't cut you off if you let them in.....

You're right, just let them in. It isn't a race.

Usually with age comes experience comes wisdom. But not always some never grow up or get any wiser.

My grandfather taught me a long time ago that trying to teach a pig to sing is just going to waste my time and irritate the pig. I'm not going to spend the time writing up what you could find easily on their website. I'm hoping you take the time to go see what they have to say so you can "show them your wisdom and intelligence". If you do, you will end up a changed person(one with real wisdom and intelligence)

 

[wolf_fire]

I truly agree with you Treo that there are a lot of jackholes in this world. I have run across my share, and I agree with you that I make it a rule not to make certain comments based upon some strange reactions I have received. I have also had someone follow me to my house to yell at me. He was driving a work truck with company logo and phone number on the side. I pointed that out to him, which brought him back to some civility and he left. It wasn't the most pleasant of situations though and I have empathy for you and your situation.

However, I can't get through how he could have possibly got in your way at the intersection. If you were traveling south and turned right, you would then be facing west. If he was facing west and turned left, he'd be turning south and you guys never would have crossed paths. Could you explain?

Highlighted in red... STUPID was a correct word choice.
