  1. Me I would just let it go.
  2. Well, I despise driving. After the initial panic attack of being cut off (driving terrifies me) I would probably let it go. But when I'm speaking I am a patient person. If someone cuts me off in my conversation to start their own I will go along with it. I like to chat either way. Sometimes the conversations come back around to what I was originally going to say or it goes in a different direction which can also be just as interesting. The only thing that really bothers me is when I am cut off so constantly that I'm becoming a, "Oh, really?" "Yeah!?" "Mmmhmm" machine instead of a member of the conversation. At which point, I will probably find plan my way out to go do something else.
  3. My Sister Danielle might honk her horn if she gets cut off vehicly.
  4. Pull my angry face at them.  D:<
  5. I begin speeding and cut them off back.  I mean-mug them as I drive by.  So far, I haven't rear-ended anyone doing that, but someday...
  6. I try to let it go, because I know I've accidentally cut people off before and felt terrible about it. So I try to keep in mind that not everyone is neccessarily some jerk. Sometimes my temper gets the better of me though and I grumble at them for a moment.
  7. I would 'do' nothing; look completely stoic and go about my business. Internally however I am still the same vehement, raging cursing-both-vocally-and-with-gestures asshat I was as a teenager in those situations, but having kids has really helped me keep that all inside my head at least. But it's still there.
  8. My friend Alex would possibly call the cops on them.
  9. Verbally I tend to wait and do the -'anyway as I was saying...' the person to whom I'm speaking to usually tends to keep eye contact so there's never any kind of response given. I can't be bothered with trying to speak louder or do anything like that.

    As for driving, well I've got Ls all over my car as I'm still learning (Test at the end of the month) so that's a big sign saying that I'm going to be slow so you better get out of that junction before I pass it  :unsure: I don't act on it and it's happened a bit since I first started to learn. I suppose once I get those Ls off and it happens less, the times that it does happen will be frustrating yes, what would I do? Probably the same as I do now.
  10. I don't think it would be legal for me to explain what I'd do > :D mwaaahahaha

    I've never understood stuff like that, it's not a realistic driving experience if everyone knows you are learning and will therefore avoid their normal driving habits around you.

    When cut off I usally just say something under my breath and sometimes give them an 'are you stupid' look.
  12. Just let it go. You'll probably get around 5 instances like this daily. You can't fight them all. 
  13. What would I do if someone cut me off? Well, I'd most likely--
  14. I
