First things first: the profile of a Filipino "gangster biker"
Seriously, these guys are breeding. I mean, who among you (filipinos) hasn't seen a "gangster biker"? These guys usually have shaved heads, with caps askew, wearing a sando (undershirt), baggy shorts, slippers, tatoos, fake silver jewelry, and all that bull. These people usually ride customized (I mean chrome, speakers, and a bunch of neon) cheap China-made(no offense) bikes/scooters. And I mean CHEAP. They usually drive on their loud (sounders ftw) rides, with their slutty girlfriends on the back.
Owell, onto the story.
Okay, yesterday, I had a rather enlightening and funny experience. My uncle and I were driving home from the battery shop (we bought a car battery) when this "gangster" dude, who we shall be calling Bubbles, cuts in front of us. (This was rather slow, at 40 km/h). Naturally, I braked, but it wasn't enough, and we accidentally clipped his rear fender. He wobbles a bit, but manages to stay on, then pulls over and mentions for us to follow suit. Being the courteous and handsome driver that I am, I pull over a few meters behind him. Bubbles then hops off his motorbike and pulls a switchblade from his pocket, with his girlfriend screaming for him to stop (honestly, when did this ever work). To sum things up:
- Bubbles pulls knife out, pointing at me and mouthing expletives.
- I smile and place my colt 1911 on the dashboard, in plain view.
- My uncle smiles.
- Bubbles hops back on and speeds away.
My point is, when you ride a 150 kg motorbike that's chock full of crap and has no performance whatsoever, DO NOT drive on the highway. (It's against the law, anyway). Furthermore, do NOT attempt to cut an approximately 2-ton SUV in motion. Honestly, that's stupidity in its purest form. FURTHERMORE, drivers are more afraid of hitting you "badass" tards --and turning you into road mash-- than they are of you. So stop trying to be intimidating, because, face it, it simply doesn't work.
And don't freaking ride your bikes in lanes that were made for fast-moving vehicles. Good grief.
Which leads me to another incident, a family drive at 100 km/h. Good thing I didn't as much as brush the tard's bike, because, let's face it, a clip at that speed would mean flight, then death (since most of them don't wear helmets anyway).
My point? DON'T drive like such badasses on the highway when you have no sense of road courtesy (or a license). Nothing is more terrifying to a vehicle driver than to kill someone in a road accident.
That's all, at least I got to blow off some steam. Thanks for reading.
Might wanna be careful; I don't know where you live or how it's like there, but even in my neighborhood in the suburbs I've heard of people in the ghettoer parts getting stabbed straight up from some guy outside the car. They were rival gang members, but still, you don't want that.
