I'm so irritated right now.
There is a huge soccer mom that lives a few blocks away from me down the road to the main highway that leads to my downtown area.
Everyone in the neighborhood must pass through this road to get there.
Now, I have been known, at times, to speed slightly, but NEVER in residential areas.
There is also a burnt orange Camaro SS with dual circular exhaust (and what seems to be a slight mod to it) a few blocks up from her, and a few down from myself.
His exhaust is quite loud, and I loathe loud, obnoxious exhaust. However, his exhaust doesn't really bother me all that much. Sure, it gives more sound than I prefer when he hammers it in first, but other than that, its just a steady BRRRR noise that you could probably hear softly inside your house, but without being bothered.
I am bothered by those hick trucks here who have no respect for people's need for sleep, and who shatter windows with their exhaust.
This woman knew I had a Pontiac Firebird or a Camaro or something (people need to be taught the differnces) so she came to my house and said, "is it you who's constantly speeding down my road with you're exhaust? I have small children (who she keeps locked up steady), and your exhaust is unnecessary. If you refuse to change this, I am calling the police and they will change it. I'm sick of hearing your exhaust and seeing your speed."
I stood there with a blank look on my face at the door, and I said, "To begin with, I have stock V6 exhaust, lady, which means it's not loud, it's not obnoxious, and it's certainly nothing for you to complain about...if anything it's something for me to be ashamed of because it's too quiet and it only has one pipe. On the other note, I have never once sped through this street. I know better than that, so please stop making an *** out of yourself and assuming it was me. I know who you're talking about. You're talking about the ORANGE Camaro that lives down the street with the dual exhaust and the V8. He's the one that does that, but to be honest, his exhaust isn't that bad, there are much worse around here. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go back to teaching people how to distinguish between Orange and Black. Have a lovely afternoon, I'll be more than happy to talk to you maturely when you stop assuming things of me."
She said, "Understood, I'm going down to give him a piece of my mind" and I thought to myself, "thats right...get back in your Ford Windstar and give him hell."
Really...she "see's" me speeding by, yet she can't tell that I, the teenager, drives a black firebird, while he, the very old adult, drives an ORANGE camaro.
Maybe I'm just overexamining this, but that's just ridiculous. I can see her cnocern for speed and her children, but that's why I've always respected that. But really, Black? Orange?
