Here's your Bitch Slap
There is a redneck comedian who has the line, "here's your sign." It is used when people ask stupid questions.
I want to implement something similar: here's your bitch slap.
An example:
Part of Georgia 400 requires a toll. There are signs about a mile before the booths stating that drivers are approaching the booths (aka. get your $0.50 ready). Several of the booths are exact change only -- just a hopper to accept change -- and clearly marked with giant signs. Today, a man in front of me pulled up to a change only booth, got out of his car, walked over to one of the manned booths, got change, walked back to his car, got in, then pulled up to the hopper, rolled down his window and tossed in his change. This person was well dressed (suit and tie) and, presumably, could read. It was all I could to do not honk my horn the entire time or do something else totally obnoxious.
To help people think about their actions and how they may directly affect others, especially since sarcasm isn't working, I feel we need to start a nationwide campaign. If at least three witnesses believe someone else's action was in extreme arrogance of self or exceptional stupidity requiring immediate education then they will be given one bitch slap.
