I am very sorry that I hassled you about leaving your car idling for so long. When I see people doing that it is frustrating because it seems ignorant, piggish, and disgusting. In this case I grew increasingly frustrated because your car exhaust was coming into my car. I could not have known that your kid/s have a rare and terminal hereditary disease, and that this requires you to run the heater for them. It did cross my mind that you were lying so that I would feel bad because people do crazy shit like that, but your level of anger did not indicate this. That level of anger accompanies a life that is painful and difficult and deserving of compassion, not criticism, I am so sorry.

“because your car exhaust was coming into my car.”
You had your windows down in 35F weather? Who cares if someone’s car is idling? Plus you saw kids inside the vehicle and still wanted the owner to turn it off? Hey I hate kids as much as the next parent-hating asshole but that’s a ballsy request on your part, and I’m somewhat sure the idling car owner aggressively telling you to fuck off was the right move indeed.
I’ll just assume you solved all the real problems in your life before going out of your way to hassle a stranger about this
Those kids were the subject of today’s Amber alert.
Way to fail lazy Samaritan.
It’s OK. You are loved.
You so totally got played!
Don’t be sorry, this is a legitimate issue.
Smog, pollution, and so on.
In fact, it is illegal in Germany to leave your car idleing for more than a few minutes for just these reasons.
So fuck off to Germany then.
I love it. Both parties in this story were trying to be the bigger victim.
