I saw the MOST IMPORTANT MAN IN THE WORLD today



I was in my work truck in a small town, waiting for the traffic light to change to green. I casually look to my right and I see TMIMW on his cell phone but apparently my truck's idle was too loud for him. He actually motioned to me like "Hey!, Turn that down!".

If'n our company name was not plastered all over the rig I would have dumped the air in the rear suspension. It sounds like a tire losing air except really freakin' loud or my air horn could have become stuck "on".

What a D'bag.


Happy Friday everybody!!

TMIMW.

That's a tough one to find the meaning for. A little help?

OK, I guess it was obvious. Congratulations. You've invented the 39th million acronym.

His personality is so magnetic, he can't carry credit cards.

Air suspension is fun. Several people have commented that my car was hissing in the parking lot or that it sounded like a jet was taking off inside the bumper.

Seems to me that I run into TMIMW every day on the way to work. Cell phone in one hand, cigarette in the other, cutting in front of me with no signal only to be two cars ahead 10 miles down the road. I need a surface to surface missile launcher mounted to my truck.

My friend and I were in his 25 Ford Coup driving on Coast Highway just south of Laguna, a woman in a SUV pulled up next to us and yelled that she wanted to be in front of us, she didn't like the exhaust from his car. It had a new small block Ford motor with headers in it, I wanted to tell her to roll up her Fn windows but my buddy was nice, looked at her and said sure, it was two lanes, no problem. She pulled in front of us and immediately slowed down. We passed her again.
She thought she was TMIWITW.
