Oh this thread will be fun indeed! <br /> <br />we see some opf the dumbest Stuff around, what did you say.. fill me in? <br /> <br />Sure no problem! <br /> <br />Jen is 100% right, People don't like to wait for thigns anymore, everyone is so damn impatient these days. <br /> <br />Heres one for the record. Heard this one from a friend of mine. <br /> <br />One day they went around replacing all of the black things on the search light signals, because they were worn and the sun had faded them.. (they are very circular) well on the south track a Passenger train was heading their way, Most signals are around corssings, so the gates were down. <br /> <br />This guy in a mercedees S class couldn't be bothered to wait, kept honking at everyone, and before the train came arcross the corssing, the S class proceeded very slowoly and crossed, But was moving acceptionally slow, almsot to prove a point that he wa sbetter then the train. <br /> <br />Well the maintencae crew took acception, And threw the signal reflector, or refractor almsot as a frisbee in no particular direction. it caught the wind, changed sirection a few times, and started curving around like a bommerang, it glided along side the car (without touching it) From trunk to passenger door until it hit the passnegr door mirror,a nd took it right off, almsot with no effort. as that ahppened the the signal refractor continued curving and went straight into a long grass farmers field, right beside the tracks. <br /> <br />The driver had not seen the signal bit, he just abruptly stopped his car, got out, looked back.. to see if he had struck any telephone poles, Got out picked up his mirror, put it in his car and drove off. <br /> <br />and to add insult to i jury, it was one of those Mirrors with the Flights on them ti indicate he's turning.. <br /> <br />I thought that was particuallry amusing. <br /> <br />I'll think of mroe because i have a ton stashed away, there is no shortage of idiotic behavior trust me!
