Default Full Moon

Must have been a full moon out tonight.... my wife and I were on our way to dinner tonight and I stopped to gas up.... while I'm standing beside the car, this convoy of 3 pickup trucks pull in, 2 of them driven by guys, one by a woman... the woman pulls up right next to me on the right like she's going to gas up... ( please know these are all young people - obviously out partying )... anyway she decides not to get gas and she hits the accelerator, next thing I know she hit's one of those big concrete post that protect the gas pumps.... she hits this post with her right front fender and the truck bounces over towards my car... literally bounced and then stopped about 6 inches from the passenger side of my car.. then she jumps on the throttle and smokes the tires.. I about freaked out watching the *** end of her truck swing just past the front end of my car as she pulled away..... good news is she missed me right? back in my car ready to leave when one of the other trucks driven by a young man starts backing up out his parking spot and headed straight for me... I throw it in reverse and step on it hard to get away from him, all the while I'm on the horn trying to get this idiot to stop... he finally stops turns and looks at me and gives me the finger.... then speeds away.... In my 60 years on this earth, I can't remember a time where my car was almost involved in two wreck within 2 minutes of each other while being parked... like I said, must have been a full moon out.... IDIOTS....

Even young people who are drunk or using drugs usually do not abuse their own vehicles that badly. Dents and tires cost money, and most people quickly learn to avoid those costs. I expect those trucks belonged to someone else. They might even have been stolen.

If they keep it up, those kids will eventually get involved in collisions with injuries. We should be thankful that no one was injured -- this time.

Just three morons with IQ's in the single digits. We have some up here in Pennsylvania too. Arrested a few of them back in the day...
