Fecking ar$eholes

[Mrs Fish]

Thought I would take a nice stroll out at lunchtime today to pick up some lunch, on the way back a group of tw@ts in a black Corsa drove past beeped the horn then sprayed me with water (at least I hope it was just water) out of one of those supersoakers out of the window.

luckily it missed otherwise I would be a hell of a lot more pi$$ed off than I already am.

Can't even go for a walk nowadays

This happened to an old lady (80+)in our village except said chavs were walking down the other side of the road. Poor old dear was quite shocked by the incident My dad confronted them but they just went into swearing marathon saying if he touches them my dad will sue you etc. A sad state of affairs

[rude-boy]

Sorry to hear that.

Sounds like the idiots that sprayed the interior of my mate's mini, staining same at Le Mans last year as we went past camping Bleu - Hang on, I think some of them may have been PH'ers, mind you you expect that sort of thing there, not so much on your average high street.

Confession time now.

When in Halls off the Streatham (sp) Road by the E&C roundabout we used to, from time to time, target the odd car, convertibles a specialty, with a super soaker from the kitchen window of a mate's flat. Only ever used water though.

Mrs Fish - fair enough at being annoyed, but this is just kids up to tricks, as they have been for ages. When I was a child, ambushing people with water pistols etc. was perfectly fair game (although was walloped when caught by parents, of course).

Sure it wasn't Vixpy doing a drive by with his pump action single-barrelled yoghurt shotgun?

[cotty]

Just think if you took out their car with a bazooka, people would think your in the wrong

Such language from a lady

Have to agree that, save for infirm, very young and old, most are fair game for a SMALL squirt of H2O on a hot day.

One must chose ones targets with care though.

It wasn't kids, they were young adults in a car for s sake.

Sniff it to make sure it is water.

In the summer it's quite common for cars full of students with super-soakers to drive past the central Cardiff wine bars spraying pi$$ onto the people drinking outside. The little ba$tards.

Only when I am angry

This has happened to me before, but I've always taken it as a good-natured prank. If they were being evil, they'd do this on a freezing day. However it seems to be a warm weather pursuit.

Its not blinking warm in Derby. The temperature is only 10 degrees.

Thought about this a little more now.

Put yourself in the situation 18, group of mates, nothing to do except hang out having a good time in the sunny weather - tell me you wouldn't laugh at squiting the odd passer bye - I know I would.

Having said that YOU are not fair game, IMHO, I would have thought that you were 'showing' by now and so that would be a big nono.

Fair point I suppose. People have to grow up sometime. Although I bet you would still have posted this if it had been a group of kids.

That said, on Sunday, as my mate left my house after staying over, another friend and I got him with a Super Soaker out of a top floor window as he drove past in his MX5 with the hood down. Fair play - he'd do (and has done) the same to us.

Wouldn't do it to a stranger, of course. Unless they looked really tempting. Water pistols - hardly a sign of antisocial behaviour, IMHO.

ETA: just read that you are 7.5 months pregnant. In which case, every right to be annoyed - hardly fair game for a water pistol shot.

How about a 7 and a half month pregnant woman

[lotuslad]

Cold day, lady in white top, carefully aimed jet of water. Hmmm

Indeed


I have calmed down now, and I can see the funny side, if it was a hot day in the summer and not 10 degrees in March I would have probably welcomed it

Erm, have to admit when I was at Uni (I was 22)we used to go on drive bys with supersoakers in my mates car - 4 of us would pull up next to people to ask for directions and when they got close open fire - this was especially good when people had just got dolled up ready for a night out.
My excuse was that I was a student - often drunk at the time - and therefore thought everyone else had the same immature mind as me. It was damned funny at the time (we thought so anyway) but have to admit if it happened to me know I'd be royally p*ssed off.
