Just gonna say that no one into cars that I know guns it from a red light because they think it'll get them anywhere faster. It's just because it makes us happy to do that. You're laughing at something we don't care about at all.

Even if you do care about that, it's not like gunning it never succeeds in getting you just past the next light before the red either.

Also, personally, it's much more comfortable to be at the front of the pack where I'm free to move, rather than being blocked in on all sides where my options to avoid an accident are constrained. This is honestly what I don't get the most about people who are part of rolling roadblocks. If an animal or person runs into the road ahead of you, you have literally nowhere to dodge besides braking and hoping.

I think this is a good opinion to have, generally. Fucking up cars just makes me happy. I key a vintage Volkswagen? Just brings joy to my heart

Crushing up ceramic and flicking them at car windows makes me light up with joy, any other fun things to do?

Yeah! Lentils in the schraeder valve and put the cap back on

I love a good lentil. Did you know that brake fluid gives car paint a nice sheen? Make sure to give them a nice coat to make look really good.

Personally I don't care if someone guns it at a red light - I do that basically every stoplight on my motorcycle because I'm trying to get away from the cars - but I do feel pretty smug if I see someone do something like weave dangerously through traffic at double the speed limit only to be stopped by a light.
