Lately, I've encountered several angry young men on the roads who yell at me for being a "fat b1t*h!", as if it were a crime to be fat and on the roads. I have since discovered there is a lovely rap song of that name...

When I complained about this to my sons, who are both runners, they both said, "well, they have to call you SOMETHING". Apparently, both have encountered angry motorists while out running, and usually endure verbal abuse regarding judgements about apparent sexual orientation. This rage is encountered in spite of the fact that they are not hurting anyone or getting in anybody's way or even freeloaders taking up an unreasonable portion of the tax payers roads. Some people are just a$$ holes on the road and the condition is apparently contageous
