What gets your goat?

Is it bad manners? Noisy (or nosey) neighbours? Crude dress? Expensive groceries? Rainy days? I know this isn't an overly positive toipc, but as is life, we're only human and sometimes things just tick us off...

Hartmut, I totally agree with you.
However, many years ago on my way back from work (I lived in a country town and travelled to another town for work) I was tailgated by an idiot on a windy narrow bitumen road at 11 pm at night. A friend passed me going the other way and informed me later that the driver was almost touching the back of my vehicle. There was nowhere for the idiot to pass and I was travelling as fast as was safe on that road. What I did is probably not legal but I put my two side wheels off the bitumen onto the gravel, spun my wheels and sprayed him. He soon dropped back and I was able to continue my journey safely. I would not recommend this as it could turn into road-rage on idiot's part - but he was in the wrong! It could also be quite dangerous, but I did it on a straight part of the road.
