Flipped off. - Help.com

Flipped off.

Yesterday I was flipped off by a kid in the car next to me. He was probably about 15 or 16. This isn’t the first time. About a month ago I was out running in about the same spot I got flipped off yesterday and a kid stuck his head out the window and said “fhuck you”.

What possesses people to do this? I never would have dreamed about doing that when I was growing up. My parents would beat me.

My point being.. I can’t say that I wouldn’t beat this kids face in if I ever saw him. I remember it very distinctively and I would be the happiest man alive if I ever did see him.

Now I’m not a very violent person. I was raised to never hit a women. Me and my brother would fight all the time for fun when we were kids. I never felt this strong of an urge to do something like this.

I just wish I was drive the car yesterday.. I would have followed him.. I’d hope I would be able to contain myself so that I would drive off when he finally stopped from running out of gas or something.. But I don’t know that I could..

Uhhhh, nice to get that out.

Yeah, that’s happened to me before as well!

To be honest, although I was initially angry at the person that did it, I just felt pity for him afterwards! I think of it this way: how bad must his situation be for him to even think of doing something like that and in the end, if he continues do to it, then certainly one day it will catch up with.

As far as having an urge to physically injure this guy, you should really just let it go! Anger is fine but it needs to be within your control at all times, don’t let it get the better of you, even if you do end up seeing this guy again!

Haha I’m sorry but this made me laugh, it’s just so like you to write a post like this, i love it. :P
I don’t think i’ve ever flipped a stranger off. It’s pointless. If someone ever flipped me off, which has only happend once and i think te little girl was like 7 or something :S but i wouldn’t be mad enough to beat there face, i just give them a look like “wow you have no life” and walk away. Stupid people do stupid things.
