Call 911 (Or 999); This Guy Just Got BURNED
When I was in my twenties, my father owned a Porsche 911, and I was on his insurance to allow me to drive it occasionally. I was also an active cyclist, and for journeys of less than ten miles, I preferred to cycle.
While heading down to the local store on my bike, a man driving a convertible BMW pulled out of a side street right in front of me, forcing me to brake hard. I remonstrated with him, to which he spat out the following nugget.
Man: “Oh, go away. I bet you can’t even drive, let alone own a car, and certainly not one as nice as mine. On a bike! I bet you don’t even have a job. Just [redacted] off.”
It just so happened that I had my father’s 911 for the weekend, as I had to drive down to London later that day. When returning from the store, I saw the same man parked outside a property, pontificating, bragging about his BMW.
I went home, got changed, and headed out in the 911. He was still there. I pulled up alongside him.
Me: “Oi, dude, remember me? This is my car. Nice, isn’t it? Very fast, too. I bet you wish you could afford one. Maybe work harder, you know?”
His lower jaw dropped a little.
Me: “Anyway, can’t stop to chat; I gotta get to London. See ya. Oh, and you might wanna grow up a little.”
I let the 911 pull a little wheelspin and rolled away.
