This is not out in some rural town. This is in Portland, OR about 2 miles from downtown. Personal vehicles this large are simply incompatible with urban living and pressure their owners to continually break traffic law. Technically that Miata is parked as close to the stop sign as it can legally be, but as the Denali doesn’t fit in many places around here it’s owner is compelled to park across both the stop sign and the crosswalk.

    The thing about America is that it’s full of loud, obnoxious assholes who do not take kindly to you if you point out the fact that they’re assholes (even subtly and without using that verbiage).

      So nailed it, they get so mad for being told a simple truth that anyone can plainly see. Is it possible that inside their heads they’re the good guy? That simple reality enrages them?

        Narcissists always see themselves as the hero or the victim. Either way, you’re wrong for suggesting they change a god damned thing about themselves.

        I think many of them know they suck deep down somewhere as well. If anyone points it out, it confirms their innermost doubts and pisses them off immeasurably.
