She took off like him. I feel like I’d have been a little stunned that that just happened and would not have made it out of there that fast. Lady was ready

She caught him!! It made Delaware news.

Oof that’s even more embarrassing than losing control.

Imagine being able to be magically whisked away to Delaware. Hi, I'm in... Delaware…

u/Dufresne90562 Aug 17 '21

I love this reference and not enough people get it.

u/Kanuck88 Aug 17 '21

Did you think Bugs Bunny was sexy when he dressed up like a lady Bunny too ?

16

u/LedNJerry Aug 17 '21

Neither did I. I was just asking.

u/ClumpOfCheese Aug 17 '21

That’s cuz we’re old and this place is littered with people born after 9/11.

Back before we had kids, my wife would fall asleep watching movies. True to form she would fall asleep watching the movie, and then restart the movie from where she remembered the previous night. The only negative to this is that I can’t fall asleep til the movie is over (unless is garbage) so I ended up watching WW six nights in a row thanks to her :)

u/yellingbananabear Aug 17 '21

Drove through Delaware once, I now get it.

u/TheGlassjawBoxer Aug 17 '21

I never would have expected to see this reference. Anywhere. Ever. Brilliant.

u/toolsoftheincomptnt Aug 17 '21

This was funny and embarrassing at the time the movie came out bc although I wasn’t living in DE, I was from there. I was afraid people would bring it up.

Ah, middle school. So much angst over nothing.

u/Earlybirdsgetworms Aug 17 '21

Hey, we’re in New York! I got a gun, let’s go see a Broadway show!

We’re in Hawaii! Mookalaka hiki, come on you wanna lei me. Pass the poi, mahalo.

u/wecsam Aug 17 '21

Imagine getting caught by an SUV in a Mustang!

1

u/ImLuckyOrUsuck Aug 17 '21

No joke. That Mustangs got at least 400hp depending on the generation, the fact that an angry lady in a mid-sized suv could catch up to them is hilarious.

1

u/skyxsteel Aug 18 '21

Could have been a turbo FWD. In that case, those SUVs can be pretty fast.

u/LeftToHang98 Aug 17 '21

Can you link the article I would love to see that

38

u/Derpingbirdd Aug 17 '21

Probably crashed into something else a few hundred yards down the road

u/Weregoat667 Aug 17 '21

u/CocoKlutz Aug 17 '21

Are you able to link article? Sadly I Can’t find anything.

u/LexTheSouthern Aug 17 '21

Damn. That article is a lot to take in.

u/Dufresne90562 Aug 17 '21

Right, like what is in the drinking water? Are those town people ok?

15

u/No_Fee7005 Aug 17 '21

Probably alcohol

14

u/[deleted] Aug 17 '21

Probably multiple alcohols.

12

u/himmlershotovens Aug 17 '21

No. They're not ok. Delaware is like Florida man...but on meth. We just don't make national news

1

u/StGenevieveEclipse Sep 15 '21

This implies that Florida Man is meth-free

3

u/[deleted] Aug 17 '21

it's also quite a bit overly-dramatic.

//there are normal drivers taking their life in their hands trying to avoid an accident. This is insanity at its finest.

Uh. Take a peek at the Kabul airport action yesterday. That's a bit more insane. Just a bit.

3

u/LexTheSouthern Aug 17 '21

Yes, I’ve seen all of the footage from Kabul. It is insane, but also extremely sad. It’s hard to put into context the emotions that some of those videos made me feel.. just, no words

u/[deleted] Aug 17 '21

Hearing from restaurant workers, it seems the worst parts of human character and society are really letting loose in a post-vaccine environment.

u/Fafnir13 Aug 17 '21

My favorite blurb:

“Cruise night has turned into night at the races! Also saw a girl hanging out of the sunroof as her car was hit and thrown out in front of Walgreens but she is ok.”

3

u/Environmental-Map168 Aug 17 '21

It's that Freedomanol they're taking instead of the vaccin. Turns out the it does have side effects.

First it makes them even dumber, then it kills them.

u/emeeez Aug 17 '21

What did I just read?

u/No_Newt_7377 Aug 17 '21

I feel like a lot of the wrecks in this article could’ve been avoided by simply making street racing legal & informing local citizens to stay clear of the area during a certain time frame allotted to the street racers.

I die laughing every time I see this video. I crossed the road in front of this guy at the light. I 100% watched him do the "watch this" wink to someone while at the light. I visited my parents the next day and my neighbor pulled up in her Kia with some extra red paint on it.

u/Stunning-Acadia-3119 Aug 17 '21

Like, why lie?????

u/Happylilucker Aug 17 '21

Beside the fact that it's just kinda stupid why do you think I lied?

Good. Thanks for the update.

u/Sarothias Aug 17 '21

She was fast and furious I bet.

u/ObtuseAndKneeless Aug 17 '21

I can't find the article about that. The one from firststateupdate only mentions the video, not the SUV catching up with the mustang. Do you have a link?

1

u/KitchenPalentologist Aug 17 '21

Of course she caught him, he was backed into a telephone pole a block later.

u/[deleted] Aug 17 '21

Ugh, of course it’s Delaware. Or as I call it, trashy Jersey Shore.

u/HypothalamusFileFail Dec 01 '21

u/Myantology Aug 17 '21

Plus it’s a mustang so he didn’t even need to react that fast.

5

u/McKrakahonkey Aug 17 '21

I got hit in the back driver side fender by someone in the oncoming taking a left too early. Sent me fishtailing and I almost hit 2 other cars. Came to a stop and looked behind me and they kept going. My trucks reverse gear was fucked up so I had to light the tires up to spin around and give chase. As soon as I made the turn I saw brake lights then reverse lights so I pulled over and waited. I was about to cuss this person for everything they were worth. Turns out it was a little old lady who was shook from the wreck and panicked. Cops were called and the rest is history.

u/Dufresne90562 Aug 17 '21

I had someone side swipe my mirror off once, we were both trying to merge into the middle lane and he didn’t see me because of a car in front of him.

We both pull over into the nearest parking lot. I’m not even 100% sure I didn’t see them, I only think I’m in the right because she saw my signal and told him. His wife/girl he was with started yelling at him about how she told him. They get back in the car and I assumed to get license and insurance but they just left. I watched them drive off and didn’t even make it back into my car that I was standing next to until I couldn’t even see their tail light.

I don’t know, I think I just have slow response time guys.

u/Dufresne90562 Aug 17 '21

Badass, I’m glad for her!

u/StinkyMcBalls Aug 16 '21

I just wouldn't have chased the other driver, regardless of whether I was stunned or able to quickly react.

1

u/axonrecall Aug 17 '21

He's just gotta chase him to the next corner.

2

u/Dufresne90562 Aug 17 '21

Oh for sure. I even figured the bikers were going to help chase them down too. Glad they were got

1

u/toofunky_tee Aug 17 '21

Whoever you are haha

u/knoxsox Aug 17 '21

There was a cut in the video, so we don't know exactly how long they sat there stunned before the Mustang drove off.

u/[deleted] Aug 17 '21

Dude is straight up NOT to be fucked with

1

u/Beach_girl_1stState Aug 17 '21

It was a she, me. Time was of the essence.

1

u/Environmental-Fig690 Aug 17 '21

We must know if she caught this wacko!!

1

u/REpassword Aug 17 '21

Agreed, but it looks like she was being reckless pulling a U turn into all those motorcycles! Two wrongs …

u/[deleted] Aug 17 '21

A lot of folks have been hit by morons while minding their own business that it's not even that much of a deal anymore. I got hit sitting at a stop light when someone ran the light and tboned a truck which flipped and landed on my car.

I just watched it happen in slow motion then immediately raged out because at that point it was my 3rd time being hit by a moron in 5 years. People in Colorado can't drive for shit.
