My Shaudenfreude story:
One day, I was driving the speed limit down a parkside road where speed traps are common. The light ahead of me turned yellow and if had I been driving faster, (the norm) I could have made it through, and the car behind me could have (illegally) justified pushing his way through too. Not wanting to speed, I braked and stopped.
I can't remember how I knew, but I could tell the guy behind me was pissed at my inconsiderate display of following the rules. As soon as the light turned green, he screeched out from behind me (remember, this is on a street next to a park) and tore around me through the intersection. Not 50' farther down the road, a cop stepped into the middle of his lane and put her hand out like Moses parting the Red Sea. He screeched to a halt in front of her and probably got a huge ticket. I giddily drove by at a modest speed, laughing all the way.
777: Strawberries and Whipped cream for sure.
Do you regularily attend live sporting events? Which ones? I'm going to try and get back into baseball this year.
