    Heard someone scream out their car window at me earlier today. No idea what they actually said so I will assume they were complimenting me.

    Not sure if people realise how difficult it is to hear what you are saying when you shout to someone going the opposite direction. Especially when it’s windy too.

        I read a comment somewhere that said don’t give the middle finger back, instead give a thumbs down because somehow it feels more offensive. I dont know why, but i completely agree. Sadly I have yet to use this despite having a few opportunities but completely forgot about it in the heat of the moment.

          I completely get the idea, but for me, if someone cheers on my stupidity, it makes me instantly feel shame. Have someone told you you’re doing a great job when you very obviously couldn’t be doing worse just to get a rise? I feel it’s a similar thing. Either way, you do you.
