A little morning humor

    As i was coming to work this fine (!) morning the traffic was crazy and everything was going very very slowly. It was raining a lot so i was soaked from the outside but i was feeling grand under all the waterproof gear. And as i am stopped on a traffic light a bald guy (no offence to our hairless dudes! - i am getting there as well) puts his window down, looks at me and says in a completely slimy way "ha ha you are completely soaked". I was puzzled for a second with his stupidity to say something like that.. but i replied.. "ha ha you will be standing here for the next half hour, you (followed by some french)"

    I still can't find what was funny with me being wet :confused:

    Morning everyone!

    I would probably have just swore at him if he said that to me, so fair play.

    when im walking 2 work in the rain, some drivers thinks its funny to drive into a large puddle and splash me and cover me in water (as if im not wet enough already!) and then beep the horn and laugh - when i worked in Ballymount, some would see u walking and purposeply drive closer to the path to make sure the drove into the puddle! and just look out and laugh at me!

    The correct response is:

    "Yes, but in a few minutes I will be dry, whereas you will still be bald".

    (with apologies to Winston Churchill)

    Thankfully, my jacket stores quite a lot of surface water, so a brief flick of the arm would have a fair amount of moisture inserted into yer mans car.... that shuts them up I find :)

    Water bottles work too... bonus points if you use the one with energy drink :)

    That's the default behavior if I'm on a training spin and have one to hand!

    Get their reg numbers and report them for careless driving then see what sort of a laugh they have about it :)
