Slug Bug
I drive a Slug Bug for one main reason; I like watching kids whip the crap out of each other as I roll by. Most of the time, I find this terribly funny.
One evening, though, on the way home from work, I slid by two kids out in the front yard playing. One kid with a plastic bat just hauled off and smacked the bejeezus out of his play pal. The other kid immediately started crying and then just as quickly started wailing on the other guy, fists flying.
I rolled my window down and hollered, "CUT IT OUT!!!"
The perpetrator with the bat just pointed to me and my car as if to say, "You're the reason I whacked my pal here."
I rolled up the window and sheepishly drove away, shamed by two seven-year- olds.
I have to constantly remind myself I'm not REALLY the reason they beat the crap out of each other. It's the unwritten but clearly understood "Rule of Slug Bug"...when you see one coming, pound your buddy before he pounds you.
