Was gonna say the same....gotta almost keep my blinders on while driving today. Just trying to get home, lol. Skunkboy and Larryw7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen this type behavior too often. Things can escalate quickly. When someone drives like that, just remind yourself that they are over compensating for a tiny .

Never had that happen nor seen it happen to anyone. Why did they run you off? Was there some sort of shared hostility with the people who did it?

It wouldn't have resulted in the way it did, except for the fact that I had no place to go. The second time, the kid was just a Richard who must've thought that he needed to teach me lesson for driving the speed limit. I learned. Now, I'm one of those people who will only drive the highway if there's no other way ... I don't care how much time it adds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantastic_four Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 I don't recall competing with or sharing hostility with anyone on the road. I speed, but not competitively, and my mind is almost always somewhere else listening to podcasts. The funniest moment I've had is someone in a sports car was weaving and bobbing through cars on a 2-lane highway where the speed limit was 65 at somewhere near 100. They had a personalized license that read PWNED, which told me they were a HIGHLY competitive driver. About five minutes after they blew past me I saw them pulled over on the side of the road by a cop, so the obvious thought occurred immediately to me--yep, you just got pwned.

Bosco685 Posted February 19, 2022 Share Posted February 19, 2022 Patrick Stewart is attempting the Andrew Garfield "What me worry?" line Quote The Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness trailer sent Marvel fans into a frenzy when it debuted. In particular, X-Men fans were abuzz over the scene that seemingly included the voice of Patrick Stewart returning in this role as Professor X from the X-Men movies. Stewart currently stars in Star Trek: Picard on Paramount+. While discussing the second season of his return as Jean-Luc Picard with ComicBook.com, he also commented on the apparent use of his voice in the Doctor Strange trailer. According to Stewart, that's all that it was, someone else using his voice, which he's experienced over the entirety of his storied career. "You know, people have been imitating my voice ever since I came on the stage 60 years ago," Stewart said of the trailer. "So, I can't be held responsible for that." Was that someone imitating Stewart's voice in the Doctor Strange trailer? Or is this an evolution of the Andrew Garfield press playbook? That strategy saw The Amazing Spider-Man actor pointedly denying his involvement in Spider-Man: No Way Home until the movie opened.

When I was stationed at Fort Benning, Georgia going through the Infantry Officer Course my wife picked me up at the base late at night after I had been deployed for a week. Once we turned off the main highway, a police cruiser pulled up behind us and after a few miles turned his lights on. He tried to imply I had been speeding for miles from a DIFFERENT road than we travelled. My wife is so small, he didn't see her in the dark sitting in the passenger seat. So when she leaned forward and said, "Officer, I've been with him and we did not take that road..." he was so surprised he pulled his pistol on us. I had to shout, "WHOA - CALM DOWN! We're just trying to explain you confused us with someone else." He told us there must have been a mistake as he is use to getting in a fight with people in uniform, and left. Meanwhile, we came close to being shot on a dark road around midnight with nobody else around to see it. Larryw7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick Stewart "I don't look at a lot of Social Media" Says the guy that has been ALL OVER social media and publishing his own social media content with a strong presence for years now. His posts with Ian are legendary. TupennyConan, Bosco685 and Larryw7 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
