You may be grown up. but you you have to learn that by retaliating in the manner that you did; you have sunk to the truck driver's level. You basically did to him what he did to you.
When you are older you will find that there are better ways to get even. Some can even be more satisfying than what you did.

Easy for you to say, Larry. Not everyone has a cousin Vito on retainer to "encourage" better behavior from those "morons" who do nasties on your pearlie.
The real problem here is auto-dom's neglect to provide at least a half-fast effort to provide a protective barrier around today's "bumpers" & doors. One thing my old '87 Chrysler had was a raised 2 inch rubberized strip all around the dingable areas of the car, & granted there's always the wind that will catch that Hummer's door in a Wal-mart parking lot & bash it into an unprotected spot somewhere; but by parking that old car in mostly remote spots, I didn't pick one noticable ding-dong in over 5 years.
