I used to get angry about that sort of stuff, but not anymore. I refuse to allow someone else to control my emotions that way. I just assign them a certain number of 'jerk points', laugh, and go on my way. n my wife all bets are off. I don't much care what people say to or about me, my wife is a different matter entirely.
I like you style, B&C. Had occasion to apply your system today. I assigned 10 jerk points to a youngish lady in a golf cart causing a dangerous situation. I must admit I did advise her "That was not wise" and she got the message as she managed to run a red light a moment later, probably to avoid me.
