Stopped at a red light this morning and a van pulled up behind me. When I say behind me, his front bumper was 5cm from my back wheel. I turned to give him "the look" (I used to teach, I have a good disapproving look) and he revved his engine. As I turned away he inched his van closer so he was almost-but-not-quite touching my wheel.
"What the fuck are you up to?" I said.
"Dickhead!"
"U wot mate?"
"Fucking prick!"
"I hope your penis rots and falls off"
I decided to get out of there right then and spent the rest of the commute thinking about how London is a horrible place.
