Drive By Egging

casanova_kid

Yeaterday, whilst waiting for the last bus home, a car drove by any suddenly an egg came flying at me and smashed all over my jacket. You cannot chase a car down and beat the **** out of the perpetrators so I was left there feeling pissed off and filthy. Has anybody else had recent experiences such as this?

Blisterman

Yeah, a few times. I got hit once in the face.
My friend threw a rock at them and broke one of their lights.
Serves them right, pricks.

Why would someone do that unless they are fcukin 7yrs old???
A friend of mine told me a few months back that while driving she waved at the odd stranger on the street to confuse them. I seriously had to question her sanity after that.

Dave!

hmmm... when I was in school, I was walking in a crowd through the corridor, and someone threw a full orange full-force in that general direction, and by luck it hit me in the eye



It hurt. But also, my little cousin was coming home that day, so I was in a very happy mood before it happened! Then I had to cycle home with half of my face red and my eyes on fire.

If I were there at the time to see that I wouldn't have been able to stop laughing. Maybe it was someone who didn't like you.

Irishpimpdude

If you dont mind me asking, what kind of car was it? i know alot of idiots that do that!

whiskeyman

where about did it happen?
I heard about a "drive-by egging" on Kielys in Donnybrook once after a rugger match... pelting all the fans outside have a smoke.

Larianne

Yeah, it happened my friend a few weeks ago in the Rathmines or Rathgar area (can't remember where she said she was).

And these idiots are allowed drive cars?:rolleyes:

During one of the summers 'hot days' in Skerries someone drove by with a water pistol... friendly chap cooling us down

GrumPy

i was standing outside donaghmede shopping centre once, talking to a friend, a car pulled up (this is in the car park like) rolled down the window, fired about 2gallons of water at me out of one of those uber soakers, and drove off laughing....i was so moist. :v:

I am deathly allergic to eggs, and any contact with them has me in hospital for a couple of days.......so thats something to look out for...:(

If you can, get the number of the car and go to the garda. It's assault, they take it very seriously and will prosecute.

Didn't get the reg and it wouldn't be worth the hassle anyway. Better to just bitch about it on Boards.

Take it seriously? Prosecute?

I was forced off the N4 on my motobike by a car full of scum. Caught up to them, and thought about putting their windshield through but instead got the reg and left it with the gardai. Checked back tw weeks later. They said they were still trying to track down the car! They had the reg the muppets. The only way you'll get justice here is your own kind of justice (The chuck Norris Kind!)

No doubt they will scramble some hard boiled detectives to poach these evil yokes. I'm sure these small fry will crack under questioning.

A few years ago I was walking down Appian Way in the rain when a car drove full force into a puddle about 20 yards ahead of me which drenched a guy walking along in a suit.

He ran after the car and caught up with it at the traffic lights. He then proceeded to drag the driver out and start punching him repeatedly. After about two minutes he let him go and continued on his way.

From my vantage point I saw the car swerve into the puddle so it was deliberate on the driver's part.

Good enough for him.
Drivers who deliberately splash pedestrians deserve to meet those mysterious walls in the early hours of the morning that end their lives.

Happened to me twice. Once in Milltown, egg hit me but bounced off. Second time was around Ballsbridge, was drunk and didnt realise I was under fire, all three missed me and the car sped off. I wish I had a portable spike-strip.

Did you do it while the driver was shouting "YEEEEEEHAW" and there was another fellow in the truck bed playing a banjo?

I do that sometimes. If I bored I might give someone a beep and then a frantic wave as I flash past.

Their faces go from self-absorbed, to smily, to confused in about 0.3 seconds.
Their wave very quickly loses velocity as they realise they have no idea who you are.

Rather than carring a tray of eggs...carry a bottle of vodka in a brown bag(dress like a tramp if this helps) and this can be used as a molotov cocktail should this situation arise again....you can be garunteed someone on fire will think twice about throwing eggs.....either that or buy a car

it certainly is, and anyone who has done it will confirm this.

fischerspooner

it sounds pretty funny what happened to be honest! Anyway this is kind of sick, but about 15 years ago on a train back from Newry to Heuston or Connolly, my brother's mate shat into some toilet roll in his hand, and threw it out the window onto some poor unfortunate's face waiting at Harmonstown Dart station, as they whizzed by on the express train. He hit him BANG ON in the face, at a high speed. I think we were about 14 at the time. I can't stop laughing when I think back of it now, but imagine the horror that poor git went through!!
