Is his name Otto?

My grandpa's neighbor got tired of seeing the same car speed down his street, so he bought a kid's tricycle and rolled it down his driveway and out in front of said speeder. Timed it perfectly and the speeder ran completely over it. Speeder freaked out when he stopped and saw a mangled tricycle under his car. Grandpa's neighbor stood at the top of the driveway and told speeder there wasn't a kid on this one, but there could be on the next one. Speeder was pissed and threatened to call cops, neighbor said "Be my guest."

There's a 90 degree turn in the street (he lives on the outside of the corner), so the speed limit is 20 along our stretch. This is people driving 25 in a 20.

Then he's the old man yelling at cloud type. Carry on.

Fifteen years ago, my now deceased (natural causes, not due to his antics) father-in-law was pissed at speeders in his neighborhood, so he taped a handle to a big Stanley Thermos bottle, and sat in a lawn chair on his front yard. He laughed at the ones hitting the brakes, got honked at (both pro and con reasons), no harm, no foul.
Current environment might be much more hazardous.

I've re-read this 16 times and can't figure out what happened.

What's the confusion? The guy taped a handle to a thermos and sat down in a lawn chair.

I'll be honest, I couldn't figure out what he was doing with it at first either. I was waiting for someone else to ask.
I also read it the first time as he taped a hand to a thermos and thought he had it in the street. Never realized he was making a fake radar gun. Since guns usually have grips and the thermos I thought already has a handle.

Oh well.

You just know some dude told his speeding driver buddy "Holy ****, that guy taped a handle to a thermos slow down!"

Don't see an issue.

Things like this were a past time in my neighborhood in Maryland. Evenings were spent drinking beer in the driveway and yelling at cars.

Had an uber driver call the cops on me. Police arrived saying there was a belligerent drunk man stopping traffic. I took exception at the belligerent part.

Good on the old man. Yall slow down. Kids are playing.

Don't be hating on Hey Dudes.

Only highschoolers and girls wear Hey dudes.

Show us on the doll where the Hey Dude man touched you.

My JH and HS sons each wear Crocs and Hey Dudes and both say they are super drip and winning. Interpret that how you wish.

I wear hey dudes because they are comfortable maybe that's a new concept in men's footwear.

Those Hey Dudes look like something to wear in hospice/while clinically depressed/having given up all hope of joy and beauty.

You're probably right. We should follow your fashion-forward sense.
