Ever want to ring someones neck so hard their head pops off?? 30 min ago I did.
So I come home to 6" of snow on my driveway so I park my truck in front of my house on the road to shovel it off. When I'm about done shoveling this old man goes to back his truck out of his driveway and get's stuck at the end of his driveway. I feel kind of bad because my truck was kind of in the way but not 100% by any means. So I see he's spinnin his wheels so I head down my driveway shovel in hand to ask if he wants me to help push/dig him out. He gets out of his truck and the conversation goes like this:
him- IS THIS YOUR TRUCK?!
me- yeah, do you need help getting out?
him- WHY THE HELL DID YOU PARK IT THERE BLOCKING THE STREET, YOU SHOULD BE MORE CONSIDERATE TO YOUR NEIGHBORS!?
me- I JUST PARKED IT THERE SO I COULD SHOVEL MY DRIVEWAY!
him-WHAT WERE YOU THINKING! (or something like that)
me- **** YA! YOU CAN GET YOURSELF OUT!!! I WAS GOING TO HELP, NOT ANYMORE, DICK!
I leave him there and go back to shoveling my walkways and he goes to get a shovel and spends a few minutes digging himself out. Gets out of the snow and parks at the end of my driveway and starts yelling some more telling me how I shoulden't park on my side of the street across from his house.... the nerve. So I yell at him saying he has some real problems and he hops into his truck at takes off.
To tell you the truth I think he was just mad that he bought a pos 2WD truck instead of a 4WD!
OK I feel a little better now...

Before he came I was going to be a "nice guy" and blow off the end of his driveway since I had my blower out. I know who much of a PITA is is to get the heavy stuff at the end off. Now if anything I'll be blowing my snow off my driveway onto his!

Id wait until he went into his house, than clear off all the snow off his driveway...he'll realise you might be a nice guy....until he realises you had the thing pointed towards his front door and he cant get out of his house!
