This morning at my favorite intersection, Montgomery Village/North Frederick Avenue, I was waiting in the left turn lane to turn onto MD-355 North (Frederick Avenue). The wait seemed to take forever, as usual. The light turned green and people started turning, as I made my way to the front, I thought to myself, I can make this light and not have to wait another cycle.
Unfortunately for me, 2 cars in front of me made a u-turn which significantly slows down everyone else. At this point, the light was yellow and if the car did not make the u-turn, I would've been able to make the left turn. Subsequently, the car in front me made the left and the light turned red, so I slammed on brake. This left my car in the crosswalk but out of the intersection.
Normally this wouldn't be a problem because very few people use the crosswalk. But, today someone used the crosswalk. As this person started crossing the street, I looked at him to see if I recognized him. Once he got in front my car, he gave me the finger, presumambly because I was blocking the crosswalk. What irritated me was not the fact that he gave me the finger but more because he refused to look at me. What kind of man just gives someone the finger and not look? Every other time I've been given the finger the person has been looking at me.
What makes this even better is that after I parked at my work parking lot and started walking to the front door, I saw the guy who gave me the finger walking in the building. At this point I had so many scenarios going to through my head if I ever were to confront him. For example:
1. I would get everyone in my team to walk by his office and give him the finger without looking at him.
2. I would introduce myself to him because I could never curse out someone face-to-face without knowing their name. After the introductions were made, I would say something like this, "Listen you little F*cker, next time you decide to flip me off at least have to nerve to look at me"
3. I would introduce myself and then politely ask why he decided to give me the finger. If it was because I was in the walkway, I would explain to him the above situation. If it were some other reason, I would just say he is a "stupid f*cker"
