Know that scene in Fight Club where they nearly execute the store clerk and then tell him to go back to school? Tyler then explains that the next morning would be the best morning of his life. That is how I feel right now. This is the best morning of my life. My Honey Nut Cheerios even taste better. I am so glad to be alive.

it'd be near death if they started chasing you down and you barely got away.

i cast disbelieve on all these links. Growing up in LA, this was in the news almost every day for a summer. Until I feel the motivation to find LAPD quotes or quotes from central valley police departments, I'm going to refrain from flashing my high beams at people.

Near death is a gun to your head. Not some buddy yanking your leg about flashing your lights.

Same type thing happened to me.

Me and my mate was walking through town when I noticed a dude with his fly undone. I went to shout out to him that he's "Flying low" when my mate stuck his hand over my mouth to stifle my warning.

Turns out it's the local gangs initiation where they walk round "Flying low" and the first person to let them know this is there target.

Every morning since I wake up feeling better than the day before and I now never walk anywhere without a skip and a bounce.

.........................okay yea I made that all up.

What about the people who are too willing to believe every urban legend their friend tells them? Or those who still believe after they've been proven wrong?

So, my friend and I had a craving for some late night ice cream. As we were coming home on one of the roads, I noticed a car without their headlights on. I pointed it out to my friend and I said something about flashing my lights at them. He quickly stopped me and knocked my hand away from the light control switch. He said that it was a gang initiation and if I had flashed my lights they would have chased us down and killed us. I didn't realize just how dangerous such common gestures could be. I am glad that my friend was with me or I would probably be in the obits once they found my body.


LOL

The mean streets of Gainseville bro? You know how we bang in G-Vegas baby... Being that it's summer time, I'd say it was more likely a drunk freshman driving back from a party who forgot to turn his lights on..

You should drive with your car lights always on, just in case.

You might be driving down a bright street and forget to turn on your headlights. Next thing some dude sees you with no lights and thinks, Gang initiation and figures he should take you out first. So he follows and shoots you first.

Actually, the way it works is that if you don't flash your lights and then post about it on the internet, a crack team of e-thugs beats you to death with their enormous e-penises. Then they rip your arms off and throw a brick at your truck.

Indeed... more like a "near stress experience". :laugh:

Have some pop rocks and soda. It'll calm you right down.

What kind of gang would screw with the "Founder of the PEN15 club." Seriously now, was there ever a doubt?

Rike, you can post all the links you want. In fact, go out later tonight and take your buddy Allio with you. Maybe you two can find some gang members driving without their lights on and we'll read about you on cnn.com tomorrow. Maybe I can make a web page saying that The Matrix wasn't just a movie but the reality. Would that make it true? Some people are just too willing to believe everything they read. Look at the post above yours. He is a respected police officer. I am sure he has had the misfortune of scraping up pieces of some poor guy who didn't have the benefit of my friend sitting next to them in their car. I, for one, owe my buddy my life. However, I encourage you to flash your lights at every car you see from now on. Be sure to post your results in a few years if you are still alive.

Lol i swear to god if there is one... you have got to be the most gullible person I have ever heard of..
you sir are a Darwin award winner waiting to happen..

omfg...
ive flashed my lights at MANY idiots that were either too drunk or stupid to turn on headlights not only at night but during other times of day when lights are supposed to be used..
IE foul weather...

ive never been chased or shot at or mugged and my dog and cat and even my pet snake dont have contract killers after them...

what a dork..

yep. agreed. But we know that one of two conditions are true: Either Reel has reached down and found a big hunk of inspired material and taken everyone for a nice long ride OR Reel is a dumbass.

WOW, that's too coincidental!!! I had a near death experience the last time I flew on a plane. I saw this movie once where a plane crashed and everyone on board was killed and like the next time I flew I remembered that and like wow it was really profound. I can't believe I came so close to death.
