I post this as an observation of Canberra drivers even though I live in Canberra.

Revenge.

Background notes. Coming from the shops I have to go through two roundabouts. The first is on a main road. It has a run-off to the connecting road where there is the second roundabout and the road after that is a two way. Part way down is a street to the right down which is where I live. And that's it. Cars behind me have nowhere to go.

Cross first roundabout and a young driver practising to be the next Daniel Ricciardo, gets right up the rear after turning from the run-off. Rather aggressive. I slow down to around 50 kph (60 zone) after going through the next roundabout. Still right up my dinger. So I slow down to about 30 kph and indicate I will be turning right but see a car coming towards me which is far enough away I could go down my street safely before it reaches me. However, I decided to come to a complete stop. Took maybe 3 to 4 seconds before the other car passed me.

Watching the dirtbag in my rear view mirror swearing like a trooper was sweet indeed.

When I had my prime mover and tri-axle float a favorite pastime with tailgaters, if I as on a road with a gravel verge was to run the float onto the gravel and spray the di**head behind with gravel stones.
Broken windscreen every time.
Those wheel ruts in the bitumen road could send an unloaded vehicle off the road occasionally. 🤣
 
went for a visit to @wayneL 's place; when we were leaving he gave me a sheepdog, said it would be handy around home. Lo and behold, within 15 minutes it made a bolt for the door.
 
WEIRD is the phenomenon that plagues a lot of psychology and other social science studies: Their participants are overwhelming Western, Educated, from Industrialised Rich, Democratic countries.. They’re WEIRD. And not only are they WEIRD, they are overwhelmingly college students in the United States participating in studies for class credit. Thinking about the source of the data for a lot of hyped, overinterpreted psychology research puts the results into a whole new light.

and watch the flagellation, the opprobrium from the self loathing pile in. Critical Oxymoronic Theory needs to curl up and die.
