Pet peeve: Cars honking at people in Central Park.
Central Park is a destination for New Yorkers and tourists. I cannot stand when the cars driving through honk at people who are trying to have a good time in the park. Raw nerves were touched on my commute home this evening.
There are no curse words or squeals in this video. I say "B" instead of the actual b-word, even though some bald, silly, foolish man called me the b-word this evening.
This isn't a remarkable story, mostly a vent and a chronicle in my little bicycle commuter life.
I also just read the book Unorthodox and it's all about this girl who is raised to be quiet and not speak out and I'm feeling very social justice today. I spoke out.

Here's the photo of MY SHADOW trying and failing to photograph his plate.

This made me smile. Not the fact you were "B"-ed out... But, the detail *looney tunes tie*. Ugh, but sorry about getting honked at :( Never happened to me, but I'm sure if it did, I'd feel the same way as you.
ReplyDeleteInspirational! Also, adorbs.
ReplyDeleteI hope you can get cars banned in Central Park. That would be great for NY tourists like me. : )
ReplyDeleteI always expect you to have a British accent though...
That's so funny! No- Southern accent y'all.

Good Rant!
ReplyDeleteWow, you are adorable in this video!
ReplyDeleteCars should be banned from any park that has a lot of tourist/cyclist traffic. Good Luck!
