Dude on the bike , about the coolest guy I've seen. And his girlfriend! Got off the bike and took the old guy on. The rider could have popped that dude in the eye ,IMO, but all he wanted was no hassle.
Sounded like a lane splitting issue.

I try not to get anybody upset with me.....I realize that every car or truck could have a crazy person inside.

However....if it does ever happen.  I want the fellow to be soft, clumsy, small, weak, easily winded and with a very low tolerance to pain. ;)

I have to wonder what had been going on in that guys life. He doesn't look like a guy who gets in physical hassles. He didn't really look all that wound up. I've Seen wound up. I should probably watch again, but I kinda felt like I saw a flash of
Why am I doing this
in his face.
I think the rider really handled that well. He coulda popped that dude, but instead, handled it with the least amount of violence necessary to contain,control the situation and protect himself.
Looks like a great training video for police.
And I'd be comfortable around a person like that who was carrying a weapon.

Title: Re: Psycho road rage...
Post by Dave on 07/14/15 at 13:31:17

I agree.....the fellow appeared to wonder how he ended up flat on his back in the curb.  The look on his face certainly seems to convey a desire to turn the clock back a minute and erase the whole incident.

If he did break his ankle on the way to the curb as the YouTube comments suggested....he might of been in shock at that point.

Title: Re: Psycho road rage...
Post by justin_o_guy2 on 07/14/15 at 13:58:40

Okay, I think someone distracted me first pass through. Watching again, he was not uncertain,, I don't know how pissed off a guy needs to be to punch someone wearing a helmet. I still think it would be interesting to know what had been going on in that guys life for the last few hours or days.
The reason I don't think he is generally a hothead or physically abusive is because he's just SO bad at it.. A ticked off eighth grader could take him out.

Title: Re: Psycho road rage...

Two sides.... always two sides...
Not enough to jump out an punch someone....

yuma az

there were a few comments on youtube that filtering was legal in az which is lane splitting when traffic is stopped only.

the ama listing for m/c laws does not mention this.

the guy was probably startled when the bike went by is all it probably took.

LOLOL, If I got off my bike  same thing.

Just, A few year ago,  a fellow, 'Bumped', my 71 Vega, (it was new then), at a stop light.  Told the girl I was with, "Take the Gun from under the seat',  Lock the doors, and if their if trouble, come out shooting".

I Got out of my car,  the,  'Bumpee',
Backed up, hit the next car behind,
and then sped through the red light.
LOLOOLOOL

Gee and that was in, 'friendly',  MN. (494 & 100)

But, in this case, it, 'looks', like,
the 'cage driver', does not understand, 'lane splitting', laws, in his area.

If that is what happened.

Here it's "a person with an intellectual disability". Calling a person Intellectually Disabled implies that the person is being defined by the disability, where the other description places the person first, the disability second. Is supposed to make the person feel more empowered, valued etc. Blah blah. Mental health is different, is a person often living at full intellectual capacity but with problems processing, reasoning etc. But still the two often go hand in hand, as well. Some older literature at my work used some really funny terms: retarded, moron, imbecile, cretin were all legit terms back in the day used to describe various types and degrees of intellectual disabilty. It's a pretty interesting field to work in and can be rewarding but when no one's looking we sometimes still use the "R"word  :P to describe a normal person acting like one.

+1.  I don't go all politically correct on many things, but that's one that I am sensitive to for no personal reason. Just always had a soft heart for kids (and adults) that are challenged.

Title: Re: Psycho road rage...
Post by Kris01 on 07/16/15 at 16:20:18

I'm the same way. I'm never politically correct except in this one instance. Any "nice" term is fine by me. "Retarded" is just offensive.

Title: Re: Psycho road rage...
Post by Art Webb on 07/17/15 at 08:53:31

It depends on context
the actual word 'retarded' simply means at a mental disadvantage, when applied to metal function
Saying 'that poor child seems to have trouble learning, I think he's retarded' shouldn't really be seen as insulting, though it is
The reason it is is because far too many people in the past used it in a mean context "Hey Retard! get away from that!"
So we decided to be offended by it in any context
I had more than a couple friends in school who were in this category, if you asked me, I would have said 'Yeah, Robbie's retarded'
I never meant anything mean or insulting by it, I just recognized he wasn't as bright as the average kid
But if you said to Robbie "something something you effin retard" in front of me I'd likely have stomped a mudhole in your butt; Robbie might not have been so bright, but he was a good guy, and he never hurt anyone that didn't ask for it a lot, so he didn't need to be spoken to like that
I took umbrage to the intent, not the word

Title: Re: Psycho road rage...
Post by stewmills on 07/17/15 at 09:17:54

I pretty much agree. Sometimes it's just hard to tell in writing what someone's context is and if you're sensitive to it, you of course want to take your side and be protective.

If someone is using it in honest conversation as you noted. I'm not going to freak, but if someone is trash talking I am going to stand up for those that can't otherwise stand up for themselves.

Post by justin_o_guy2 on 07/18/15 at 12:24:21

A Ford wrench is a monkey wrench that Ford had built with their name on it.
The only difference between a Ford wrench and a monkey wrench is that the Ford wrench came in the tool kit of a new Ford car. That was back in the day when people who drove a car had reasonable expectations of needing to work on it. Baling wire, pliers, nail file, bubble gum, etc. all considered as normal as hooks in a tackle box.

Yeah, Baling wire, still a constant in most man caves.


To add to the confusion

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monkey_wrench


The biggest pipe wrench I've used is a sixty inch. Usually two of us went to get it and anywhere from three to six were involved in using it. A cheater pipe was almost always involved, leaving two to lift and position it and one to make sure that the jaw was set, then join the club on the cheater. I watched four guys fight a left hand thread for about a half hour, then went and told them...  they ALL knew that all threads above the rotating table are left hand,, but they weren't thinking..

Of course if the project is not being held, then you gotta have a backup, and then IT has to have a cheater,or the torque will just lift what you are working on.


These are handy but don't take the abuse of the oilfield well.

Title: Re: Psycho road rage...
Post by Serowbot on 07/18/15 at 12:25:15

Pipe wrenches have pivoting bottom jaws, that tighten as you apply pressure and loosen when you release... so that you can ratchet the pipe in one direction.
Grip, slip, grip, slip...  so cool... ;D...

Title: Re: Psycho road rage...
Post by justin_o_guy2 on 07/18/15 at 12:42:53

Right up till IT slips while you're in full on
Grip now, sucka
mode.
Jumping on a cheater pipe can allow enough pressure off the jaw to allow the spring to open the wrench... it can get ugly... I can't count the bent and broken thirty six and forty eight pipe wrenches I've seen.

Title: Re: Psycho road rage...
Post by Kris01 on 07/18/15 at 15:36:16

Ok, there IS a difference. I never knew that. I always say "pipe wrench" but assumed a "monkey wrench" was the same thing.

It's kind of like a claw hammer and a ball peen hammer. It's the same tool essentially but each has a slightly different purpose.

Title: Re: Psycho road rage...
Post by Art Webb on 07/19/15 at 07:43:40

Ball peen hammers are tempered differently from claw hammers: using a claw hammer to beat on hard metal tools or parts, like you do a ball peen, can lead to chipping of the hammer's striking surface, which is potentially dangerous
Claw hammers are tempered 'hard' to beat on relatively 'soft' nails
Bell peens are tempered 'soft' to beat on hardened tools
know your tools, use the right one for the job

Title: Re: Psycho road rage...
Post by justin_o_guy2 on 07/19/15 at 08:41:40

Before I knew better and before I had a good tool collection I was changing a U joint and to get it out I was using two hammers. The small end of one ball pein and I think the other was also. I thought I heard things hitting the ground, but I had no idea that slamming hammer faces together could cause a problem. Finally a piece hit just right on the thumb knuckle.. in it went, way past needle and tweezers. Went to get it X rayed and the Dr. said it's too close to the nerve, gotta leave it.. after a few years it migrated to between the knuckles. I bumped into the exhaust manifold with the bump it made. Went back, New X rays, Doc cut it out..
Never strike hammers. And chrome sockets are harder than impact sockets and will break, sometimes. You return a Craftsman socket that shows an impact has been on it, and the square drive will show it, and the warranty is gone.

When I looked at the hammer there were pieces missing all around the face..
Young, inexperienced, inadequate tool collection, if I woulda had a fat punch I woulda been okay... Back then I probably could have had what I needed for under five bucks... but who had five bucks?


You can't turn pipe with a monkey wrench,pipe wrenches mess nuts and bolts UP,,and a ball pein is not too good for pulling nails.
Finger mashing is easily accomplished with any of the above.
I have four ball pein s of various sizes, a claw hammer in arms reach of both work benches and a collection of other kinds and sizes of hammers.. total around thirteen, counting the fat rubber one for hubcaps.

i had shrapnel in the knuckle of my right ring finger for about 20 years from hitting two hammers together trying to pull nails as a kid. never caused problems, just an obvious knot that i finally decided to get cut out before it did do something as i got older.
