You sound super fun.

I will make a French person struggle and talk English to me because I don't feel like using French most days even tho I understand them completely.

than they do
Do what you like, I actually think that's pretty funny, and people who ignore crosswalks definitely fit into the A-hole category. But if you step in front of moving vehicles with drivers not paying attention, eventually you'll get hit by one of them. Personally, I'd rather be alive than right. YMMV.

I think we had a communication error there. My point that stepping in front of moving cars with driver's who aren't paying attention is dangerous probably still stands.

I'll admit it, I have done this every single day, for the better part of a decade. I do it as well going from westbound Glenmore to Crowchild. I figure, at minimum, it has saved me 5 minutes every day, for 9 years.

So, call it 220 working days per year X 5 minutes = 18.33 hours X 9 years = 6.9875 days.

So being an A-hole, has gained me at least a week of leisure time. And nobody, has yet to have been able to stop me, or miss my turn-off.

Let's be honest, you've just spent those extra 5 minutes a day arguing with Puckluck on Calgarypuck.

If someone is tailgating me, and it's pretty icy, I'll tap my brakes just so the brake lights light up. Can usually get them to freak out and cause them swerve. I don't do it on high speed roads, or where I think it would be dangerous, but if its icy and you're right on my bumper, you're putting me and my car in danger, so you get what you deserve.

If some d-bag behind me is zipping through the road and changing lanes left and right just to be faster, I will purposely get myself next to a slow car and try to box him in.

My neighbours in my condo building have Chihuahua's that go bonkers and start fighting with each other when they start barking. So if I know my neighbours are out, I bang on the door as I walk past, then listen at the other side of the door as they start kicking the crap out of each other.

I like to make intense eye contact with dogs while they wait in their owners cars ......it usually sends them into a fit of rage.

I really don't do anything, i'm just told a lot that I'm being an a-hole or doing something that makes me an a-hole.

I guess as Dennis Leary says - I'm an #######...Damn you Table!!

I find most people with handicap parking tags don't "look" handicapped.

This particular bank lacks parking spaces, and there is always 3 empty h/c spaces wide open right in front of the place while everyone parks down the street etc.....

I got to work early one morning and took a dump in the ladies bathroom and never flushed, wasn't a big office so there was only one stall in it. At the time there was just 4 women working there so it was quite funny watching them stare each other down trying to figure out which one of them did it.

if someone is tailgating me and the road is wet (usually best when the snow is melting) I drive slightly to the side of the road to spray the mud all over there windshield and all over there car... hopefully there is some gravel too.
