Blowing your horn

    Out walking with the dog this evening & four cars blew their horns (the cars horn, not the one in their pants) at me.
    What is the story with this?
    I've noticed it before but it seems to be getting more common.
    What do they think they are going to achieve?
    And have you ever blown your horn at someone out walking?

    On a well lit footpath.

    OVERHEAL: I was wearing a tracksuit & hoodie so I don't think 'hot' would have come into it.

    To answer your question. I presume the honkers are referring to "Dogging" click on the link. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogging_(sexual_slang)

    Do they exist?
    But no. It was a nice warm, fully covered tracksuit. And the hoodie was loose so the boobies weren't bouncing around in full view.

    Is there a porno of you circulating your neighbourhood?

    Bar the local porno video the only conclusion to make is that you are a fit horny well put together chick whose body shines through your track suit

    other than that they were warning you aboout Guards waiting round the corner


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,551 ✭✭✭SeaFields


    Perhaps you shouldn't be walking with your cock out again Mr. Prendeville.

    No.
    Seriously though, I was walking along getting beeped at so I thought I obviously have toilet roll stuck to my ass or something. At one stage I stopped in front of a shop front to make sure the arse of my tracksuit had not ripped even though I checked.
    I presume they were boy racers out messing. I can't think of any other explanation.
    But it makes me very feel awkward.

    Its simple, the people in the cars thought you were attractive and wanted to let you know. I assume they were not on their own in the car and they had at least one friend in there with them. The beeping at an attractive women would 'up the buzz in the atmosphere of the car'.


    I've been in a car with my mates where they've done this, but more stranger still 3 times in the past 4 years I've had women do this to me. Which generally leaves me in a pretty confused state as I'm no Brad Pitt and well , yea never know with women if they're being genuine or taking the piss. :confused:


    Anyway, no op. They don't expect you to walk up and have sex with them...

    As embarrassing as it might be, take it as a complement and move on.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 163 ✭✭kiwi123


    ah its replys like these that make me love after hours!

    only time id ever beep is if i know someone

    I've had car horns blown, I've had whistles, I've had cheers, I've had barks.

    Ooh brave guys!

    Just stop the car and talk to me of your such a big man.

    This is not a way to treat women, unless I'm feeling a bit ugly that day. Then it cheers me up.

    When I see a woman I like, I usually get nervous & run them over.

    True story.

    Ah, a pink track-suited hoody beor, then obviously they all thought you were their sister/wife/cousin, Julia.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 513 ✭✭✭Mozoltov!


    Save your horn for your missus.

    What time did you go walking at? Maybe they were beeping 'cause you weren't wearing a high-vis?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,689 ✭✭✭✭OutlawPete


    It's some men's way of saying that they would give you one if you ran up their road after their car and go in.

    Okay, this has never actually worked - but for a split second, men think it just might.

    It's a strange glitch in the male brain, but stem cell research is working on it and as soon as they sort Parkinsons and Tourette's, we're up next.

    I remember i used to go out delivering with the lads from work sometimes in the summers. If they were parked up and saw a nice looking girl,specially one wearing next to nothing, they'd beep at her, and then duck, so when your one would turn around all she'd see is me sitting in the truck. I got some looks i tell ya! :o

    And have you ever blown your horn at someone out walking?

    1. Warning you as it was dark and you weren't exactly very well lit with reflectives or are walking on a dangerous part of the road.

    2. Giving you heads up that they are coming from behind incase you or the dog decides to jump out or something.

    I don't see whats so strange with either... the amount of people out walking with and without dogs on dark cold nights that have nothing to make themselves more visible is amazing.

    Seinfeld
    I swear, I have absolutely no idea what women are thinking. I don't get it, OK? I, I, I admit, I, I'm not getting the signals. I am not getting it! Women, they're so subtle, their little.. everything they do is subtle.. men are not subtle, we are obvious. Women know what men want, men know what men want, what do we want? We want women, that's it! It's the only thing we know for sure, it really is: we want women. How do we get them? Oh, we don't know 'bout that, we don't know. The next step after that we have no idea. This is why you see men honking car-horns, yelling from construction sites. These are the best ideas we've had so far.. The car-horn-honk, is that a beauty? Have you seen men doing this? What is this? The man is in the car, the woman walks by the front of the car, he honks. This man is out of ideas. I mean what is he expecting? For the woman to stop and say "Hey you honked at me .. Ahhhh that's so sweet .. I never knew you felt this way!"?

    The amazing thing is, that we still get women, don't we. Men, I mean, men are with women. You see men with women. How are men getting women, many people wonder. Let me tell you a little bit about our organization. Where ever women are, we have a man working on the situation right now. Now, he may not be our best man, OK, we have a lot of areas to cover, but someone from our staff is on the scene. That's why, I think, men get frustrated, when we see women reading articles, like: "Where to meet men?". We're here, we are everywhere. We're honking our horns to serve you better.

    My mother once left her shopping bags on the roof of her car and drove around town with them, ignoring the hoots of other cars.

    Did you leave your messages on your head, OP?
