Psycho in the car!

    Generally i am a calm, quiet and rational person...that is until i get in my car. I frequently lose the head and have been known to get out of the car and scream, rant and rave about peoples stupidity on the road.
    This backfired on me a few years ago when i started freaking out because someone was driving up the ass of my car, when i got to the lights i threw open the door and walked back to the car behind me, smacked the drivers window and was just about to let out a string of abuse when i looked at the driver and saw a frail approx 80 y/o women who looked like she was gonna have a stroke on the spot. I quickly retreated back to the car and drove off feeling guilty. However i still continue to scream and swear at stupid drivers... ie people that cut me up, don't indicate, drive too slow in the fast lane etc.

    So are you like this....
    Is this normal or do i need psychiatric assessment?

    You need St Pats...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,808 ✭✭✭✭chin_grin


    Try a few or all of these.

    1. Breathing slowly.
    2. Counting.
    3. Classical music or any tunes you like.

    They work. Believe me! :pac:

    I lose the plot in the car as well but I quite enjoy it, me roaring and punching the roof is usually folllowed by a bout of laughing.
    It's a great stress reliever

    I wouldn't get out of the car though. That's mental.

    OP, the cure is Lyric FM, chills the soul.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,564 ✭✭✭✭whiskeyman


    I just smile psychotically at anyone who cuts in front etc...
    Scares the bejesus outta them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,898 ✭✭✭✭seanybiker


    I'm kinda sickened it was an old woman that surprised you in the car Tbh. Pity it wasn't some lunatic fighter fella and he kicked the arse off ya.
    No problem with people having a little whinge because of other road users but the over reacting road warriors wreck my bulb.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,102 ✭✭✭easyeason3


    I always do this especially to people too slow to get off a roundabout etc.
    Are they waiting for a fcuking invitation?
    But I don't blow the horn or get out to people though. I'll just sit there stewing in my own importance.

    So are you like this....
    i would be like that a bit, but not to the point that i get off my car and abuse other drivers. there is a significant risk that i could pick a wrong person and end up driving my own wheelchair for the rest of my days. life's full of surprises you know...

    i hope we never meet on the road.

    Pity you werent obeying any manners! Next time you might not be so lucky to get away with your behavior!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,007 ✭✭✭sollar


    I'd say you had a glance in the rear view mirror before you got out to jar that old lady


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,298 ✭✭✭cosmicfart


    Pack of el wans on here LOL


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,880 ✭✭✭Canis Lupus


    geez sorry mom

    Having a swear at poor driving by others = fine.

    Getting out of your car and hitting someone elses car just drops you into the scummer/retard section of society. I've no time for that behaviour.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,702 ✭✭✭squod


    drive too slow in the fast lane etc.

    Hope you're posting from another country OP. Another country that has fast lanes. Over here we have overtaking lanes, only to be used when overtaking!!!!! (:mad:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,791 ✭✭✭up for anything


    My curiosity is piqued! How does the OP get to have four filled in stars same as Biggins underneath her but she's new and only got a few posts under her belt and what do the stars mean anyway. :confused:


    As to the topic, I have a bad temper both in and out of the car.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,775 ✭✭✭✭kfallon


    Tbh if you keep getting out of your car and swearing at people OP it's just a matter of time before you get a 'boot' in the 'gearbox'!

    That'll teach ya :rolleyes:
