you know what really grinds my gears.
people who put their kids in danger by not watching them properly and keeping them under control.
something happened to me the other day that really p!$$ed me off.
Driving down a main road i went to turn right into a side road. a car was coming the other way so i stopped at the top of the road at the junction for the other car to come through.
the car comes through and gets near to me. the car cautiously stops to evaluate the situation and to check he has enough room to go through.
a gaggle of mothers and their small children and prams are walking along the the pavement towards the kerb.
i'm not moving, the other cars not moving. LUCKILY! something then happens so quickly and in an instant if we had of been moving, or not so aware it could have been fatal.
a very small young boy about 3 to 4 years old ran accross the road between the 2 cars and slipped over. you could only just see him , my view of him was below the bonnet. if either car had been moving he could have been killed.
thankfully he got up ok though and ran back to his mum.
his mum was not watching him and has not took a blind bit of notice of what has happened.she is texting on her mobile, smoking a fag and yapping to her mates whilst leaning on a pram. she looked very young herself. kids having kids, yet again.
i stare at her, i havent moved my car an inch by the way, neither has the other driver. we have done nothing wrong.
this mum stares back and decides to hurl a load of foul-mouthed abuse at me and waving her hands, pointing telling her mates what a w**ker i am. yelling what you f***ing looking at.
the mum and her mates procede to cross the road and walk off.
i never normally start anything with anybody and prefer just to keep my head down. my wife starts winding the window down to say something, but i beat her to it. i get the red mist. i am so annoyed with myself that i sunk to this level. i feel so ashamed but i dont think i have ever been so angry. i am almost as annoyed at myself as i am at the chavvy reprobate with the children.
i started shouting at her who the f**k are you yelling at, I am not the one in the wrong, the car wasnt even moving, if it wasnt for me and that bloke your f***ing kid might have been run over and killed, you're not fit to be a mother, keep control of your f***ing children, you stupid f***ing cow.it would help if you did your f***ing job properly and kept a proper f***ing eye on them.
of course when i composed myself and looked around there was a group of secondary school kids stood there laughing theirselves silly. which did not help the way i was feeling.
so yeah there we have it another example of people who shouldnt be having children in the first place knocking out a whole brood of them and then not bloody looking after them. watching a small child near traffic should be one of the most basic of things surely?
who would have been villified, blamed and hated if that little boy had been run over. the mum or the bastard that ran him over?
anyway i drove almost the same route today and who do i see , same gaggle of mums. same chavvy reprobate yapping to her mates, not bloody watching her kid properly as he happily ran along the pavement.
people who put their children in danger by not watching them properly and keeping them under control.
thats something that really grinds my gears.
