Default Why can't some people take a hint?

So I'm driving down the road to work this evening, and this chick gets behind me and tailgates me so close i can't even see her headlights. This ticks me off cause irarely go the speed limit and see no reason for her to ride me like this. So at a few different red lights i roll a little coal just to see if she gets the hint. No such luck, so little by little my clouds get a little bigger. Then finally i get to a hill and i just gun it and leave back a smoke screen. And she dodges her little pontiac all over the road to try and avoid it, even going into the turning lane at one point. But later down the road she get's right back on me! I just figured i'd share and see if any one else has any good stories. I know the right side of her car was a little sooty before she finally got around me hahaha

dude i swear, going from a truck to one of these zippy little cars, its hard to not drive like a TOTAL dick. Its like crack. I'm just glad a learned to drive in trucks and get it rather than having a terrible driving record like my friends who's first vehicle was a 1200lb car.

it sounds ridiculous until you realize you can weave through traffic and get there on time when you leave 5 minutes late. I'm still puffing little smoke clouds though

I smoked my mother out in her buick the other day and the auto wipers started going. I guess the computer thought my smoke ball was rain.

I slow down more, she doesn't get the hint.
BRAKE CHECK!
She nails hers, THEN RIGHT BACK ON MY BUMPER!
We make it to a corner and she turns off flipping me off and calling a (I can read lips).

Tailgaters think it's funny (usually it's teenagers or P.Oed individuals), but it's easy to see how quickly it can go from "simple and amusing" to "complicated and disastrous" in mere seconds.
