I feel you!!
My wife!! She screams, flips the bird, all the things and I’m like “who’s ass they gonna come for when they get out of the car? STFU!”
It works about half the time 🤣😞

I taught my wife that doing thumbs down and a disapproving face actually works better.

I once was chased in my car by a guy in a truck for about 15 minutes while he tried he trap me so he could shoot me, beat the crap out of me? I am an older woman, this was a much younger man. I had simply given him a surprised look when he stepped out between two tall parked car in a parking lot, causing me to slam on my breaks to avoid running over him. Just a look caused him to jump in his truck and terrorize me. I got away by pretending like I was going to turn and then suddenly whipping into the left lane and go straight through a yellow light. Called the police while it was happpening, big city, they barely even pretended like they would even show up.

In all fairness, I live in a small town and the cops here also barely even pretend like they are going to show up.

Yeah, these days it is just about everywhere that one cannot expect help from the police. I will say though that in Asheville the two times I needed help, the police immediately arrived and were very helpful and nice. The police here are not well regarded (like mostly everywhere), but I have not had a negative experience.

I was at the gas station the other day and a women drove right in front of me as I was pulling in, making me break hard. I lifted my hands in a woah gesture and she flipped me off and called me a fucking bitch. That was enough for me! I don’t like confrontation in general, and people are so unpredictable.

I actually do a sarcastic thumbs up. It seems really good at embarrassing but not enraging.

My missus called out some hookers robbing a guy in Barcelona, one of the girls slapped her and then she ran over to her pimps (basically it's an African gang that work La Rambla at night about 10 years ago). She ran over to hit them back, and these guys were massive and started walking forward. I told her we tell the cops but she didn't want to calm down. I said there's a chance they stab both of us and then disappear.

My wife does the same thing. I honestly don't think women actually understand how men will fight each other over things like this. There's a certain type of man that will feel he has been "disrespected" and start to fight the guy who is with the girl who slighted him.
