road rage (double 4-letter score)
Wednesday, March 25th, 2009we were having a discussion of sorts about my french and a question (read: challenge) was posed: if you don’t swear for a whole day, will you die? which offshot to another debate about what constitutes as swearing; 4-letter words: fuck, dick (richard?), damn (i disagree, it’s a friendly admonition), shit (is a beautiful, natural human byproduct, not an obscenity); tone of voice (hello!) and psychical gestures (which we didn’t cover). and i thought, hey, why not, as i got into my car, headed home.
20 minutes later…
as i pull into subang, a car 15 meters in front brakes, blink-and-you’ll-miss-it ever-so-slightly. then as i’m passing him on the right at not-so-safe-on-a-bend 80kmh, he veers abruptly into my lane, forcing me to stop and honk (meeeeeep). the bastard (8-letter triple score), then flops an arm out of his window in apology. or what i assumed was an apology. it better have been sorry you fucktard (8-letter win!). i stay well and good behind this chromosomally-challenged mofo who, drooling down his popped-collared polo tee, proceeds to veer right, flicking his right signal on 30-seconds later (WTF) before cutting across 3 lanes to the left at a 60° angle. swerving back to the right, he stops at a traffic light, and just as i was about to count my lucky stars, fucker (6-letter score) guns it into my lane, hogs two traffic lanes and signals left ONCE before cutting in front of me again (foiling my desperate attempt to get home with my temper in tact) before crashing into USJ6.
yeah, so maybe i can’t go a full 24-hours without swearing. but i can launch into a 30-minute swear fest, starting. now.
