Give a horn to an idiot and he'll blow the horn

Whoever thought of placing a loud horn in a car. They don't sound nice
either. By contrast, a bicycle bell is pleasant --ring ring-- or
musical like wind chimes dancing in the wind. Sometimes it goes "ding
dong," announcing that someone of great importance --such as my royal
self-- is coming through. Never do pedestrians feel threatened by
these gentle sounds. Now, placing an idiot in a car with a horn is
invitation to dissonance and chaos. Yesterday, I stopped on a dime
when the light turned green for cars, and before I knew it this idiot
was blasting the horn at me --not a toot-- but a disgusting long honk.
I went, "YES SIR!" --it was a lady-- and gave the military salute with
plenty of fanfare. Yes, sometimes you must make fun of an idiot with a
horn.

NOTE: A HONK IS AN ACT OF BELLIGERENCE. A TOOT CAN BE ABUSIVE. WE
DON'T NEED MORE 'NOISE POLLUTION.'

From this vantage point, it seems like a monkey is making noise with
his computer. But it's not noise pollution, just trying to right the
wrongs out there.

It's a great deal of freedom you enjoy on the roads nowadays. You can
blow a train horn from your SUV so everybody knows the KING is
around.

And all we got is a wimpy bell.

You don't get it, right? They sit there in the little Toyota and blow
the horn at each other. In my bike though, it can give me a fright!
Of course it can, you're paranoid that the entire world is out to run you
off the road. Here's a clue -- nobody gives a rat's ass about you or what
bothers you. They do care that they are stuck in a 45 doing 15 because you
ride in the middle. You are required to ride on the right, and you even have
to pull to the side if there are 5 or more behind you that want to get by.
I saw an idiot terrorizing pedestrians tonight. He was turning left
into them and he couldn't wait them to cross the street. He blasted
the horn at them even though he was approaching from behind and they
had the pedestrian light. What worries me even more that the people at
the bus stop where I was didn't say a thing about it. No wonder
there's no people outside.
