Drivers who beep their horns while driving past women are twats

Immaculate Pasta · 30-05-2012 12:48PM #1

So I live on a busy road in a city and I've been stuck at home revising while the weather's been hot. Anyway this last week it must be triple figures easily the amount of cars I've heard beep their horns this last week.

When it's good weather out it seems to happen all the time. A girl's walking down the road and some eejit drives past and beeps his horn at her. Now don't get me wrong I'm no feminist, in this hot weather it's been great having a bit of a perv at some of the girls out on show this week, but I'd never shout out to them or beep my car at them which I've seen people do. I'd be mortified if I did that to a woman.

I don't understand what these idiots are hoping to achieve? Is a girl really going to go wow this guy drives a van has beeped their horn at me I'm going to jump in his car and I'll ride him.

So my questions I pose to the people of After Hours are:

1. What do you think of this phenomenon? Does it annoy you?
2. Does anyone on here actually do it? If so why do you do it?
3. For the females of AH: Has this happened to you? Do you feel complimented, turned on, annoyed, degraded or are largely indifferent by it?

:cool:

I haven't seen it in awhile but generally the drivers were mongos

They could do something else with their horns, which may be even more frowned upon.

gustavo · 30-05-2012 12:50PM

How else are they to know I'd ride them otherwise

Ah shur they only love it

SCRUBBBERS!!!

Do the girls who don't get beeped at feel hurt and ignored?

puffishoes · 30-05-2012 12:52PM

Personally I couldn't give a *beep*

kfallon · 30-05-2012 12:54PM

I only do it with the horn on me penny farthing, straight after I adjust my monocle to get a good look at the lady in question's chasis :pac:

It's the mark of a man that's completely out of ideas

BEEP!! BEEP!!

:cool:

I saw it yesterday and the girl seemed to be very pleased :cool: Wasn't me, I'm no more in the age to get beeped at for my sexy looks and not yet in the stage where they merely wait for the old auntie to cross the street when the green's long gone.

Beats sticking your head out the window and howling/drooling like a dog or does it...

What is more annoying is when some spastic in the passenger seat beeps it and makes a show of you. Especially when they are not from the area and its your neighbours(who you have hardly ever spoken to) teenage daughter out walking with her mother.

In our natural world, it's the male advertising his status that he's a bollox.

davet82 · 30-05-2012 12:59PM

its a mark of respect by showing the woman how appriecative you are of her bewbs or backside... they love it, dont they?

Now that's the kind of car beeping I will condone :cool:

I've had it done to me plenty of times over the years- i'm not a minger, but certainly no stunner either

I don't dress skimpily either, so have no idea why.

Fizzlesque · 30-05-2012 01:02PM

I detest the sound of car horns being beeped - such a violent intrusion on my happy daydream world inside my head - so, if it was to say "I see you're wearing a skirt/summer top today" or if it was to say "oh look, there's someone I know, I must beep at them, otherwise they won't be able to [don't know WTF the damage would be if people were denied the knowledge X,Y or Z passsed them in their car]....."

It's just annoying, end of. The reason (unless it's to actually avoid a crash/traffic accident, you know, what it's designed for :rolleyes:) is immaterial.

Worst is when someone gives someone a lift and they still feel the need to beep loudly to say goodbye to the person who has just got out of their car.....

Grrrr....one of my pet peeves this is. As you can probably tell

Meh, I like it.

biko · 30-05-2012 01:10PM

At least they're not scrubs.

I don't want no scrubs
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hangin' out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Trying to holla at me
