Sometimes I forget

Not every Camaro owner is like most on this board. Respectful and mature.
Today my wife and I are driving to a local store. At the end of our street there is a two way stop where we have to make a right turn. Almost everyone coming down the hill gives it a California roll but at least they give a look our direction. Today, my wife is at the wheel. She comes to a full stop and suddenly a Camaro comes flying down the street doing at least 50 and doesn't even slow down at the stop sign.
We happen to be going to the same store and park near him. As he's getting out of the car I walk over and politely suggest he might want to at least slow down a little at the stop sign. His response, F you old man, if you can't handle fast driving don't have a fast car, and walks away. He was a skinny little runt, and even at 69 I could have cleaned his clock. My wife, however, intervenes and we leave.
I drove up yhe hill in one of my other cars just a bit ago and saw his car parked in his or his parents driveway.
I trying to remember, vengence is mine saith the lord because I'd sure like to go up there tonight and key the sh-t out of his car.
Then I remember the good folks here and knew that was no answer.

Yeah, last night I had another SS sitting at the light next to me while on the way to work. I was making a right and he was going straight. We both had our windows down, so i gave him a thumbs up and said "nice car" and he just glared at me and looked away. Not a single Camaro owner that i've passed even returned a wave. A vette owner gave me a thumbs up the other day when i passed him on the freeway, so that was nice.

For a 69 year old man, that's a pretty childish idea that takes you down to the kid's level.

You should have punched him in the mouth, old school style.

Ahh, but he didn't act on it. And that was the key to the story.

You going to tell me you've never had an irrational, immature thought?

Yeah man some people are just so arrogant. Just brush it off, im sure youll run into a cool C5 member soon
As for keying the car, im pretty sure your pissed and obviously wouldnt do it but if you for whatever reason decide to do it, DONT! Karma is a bitch and im sure that kid will get what he deserves

Agreed Fogey. Karma is a bitch. Let's just hope his reckless driving doesn't injure or kill someone.
