A4 yuppie scum in Boston
So, I'm tooling along on the Mass Pike out of Boston, minding my own
business in a good, semi-law-abiding-mood(75-80ish) in the left
lane(doing what one should in the left lane, passing other cars) when
some yuppie scum in a new a4 1.8t(lic. plate and color not provided
to protect the annoying) comes flying up.
He sticks around for a bit, not going around into the rightmost lane
or anything(probably waiting for "slow poke 5000" to get out of his
way by merging into the lane full of traffic.) I quickly got tired
of his ability to apply armor-all to my rear bumper, so I floored it.
The 115-ish HP difference between our cars solved the immediate
problem of his little bumper-hugging habit.
Grr. Further proof there should be an ownership exam. Great car,
but lots of annoying drivers; half buy 'em for status symbolsin these
parts(same ones are permanently afflicted with the
rear-fog-light-on-24-hr-a-day-just-in-case-it-suddenly-turns-into-a-bl
izzard syndrome.)
Bah. Such a waste.
