I did pick up some styrofoam I saw blowing around the parking lot...

If you are already Karen I should buy a lottery ticket. Let's move on before someone gets offended.

Turn it in or let it go. Only other option was to punch him in the face and hope he isn’t armed. Assholes’s gonna asshole.

It's the only way to be sure.

Luckily managed to not hit anything. I went to the dump to (rather politely [really, I'm pretty damn polite in public irl]) tell this person that he really needs to secure his crap. He basically gets belligerent and starts yelling insults and telling me it's not a crime (he's wrong). I just leave.

Besides the moral issues, like next time it could be plywood/press board or a motorcyclist behind him, I and others technically witnessed him commit 3 misdemeanors (failure to secure loose load, failure to pick up debris from transporting a loose load, and littering which can theoretically get you jail time in MD if you're an exceptional asshole), and I have an image of him and his license plate. I should probably report it to the police though nothing is likely to happen.

Option 2: He was wearing a shirt which basically tells me where to find him at work, in a location I both have access to and have reasons to be at. So options 2-n are to make another attempt to have a civilized conversation, or at least leave a printout of the laws he broke so he can take the matter a bit more seriously.

. What to do...

Let rest unless you’re ready to get physical. Guys like this have no moral center. In my experience, his going off on you is a pretty good indication that his focus is on what he wants and nothing else. He couldn’t give a rats rear end about motorcyclists or anyone else.

Guys like that? I usually go home, watch “Men Who Stare at Goats” again and practice telekinesis.

Ask Don Ciccio. You really need to follow thru.

Maybe a poor man's version if we combined forces.

Was going to make knife today… but instead started on other projects. Forged carbon fiber ring & Damascus ring.

Interested to see how it’ll turns out

I suggest you just drop it.

There are too many jerks in the world to try to straighten them all out.

It's an oil cooler sandwich plate in a fancy tin box.

Replaced the cabin air filter yesterday and I noticed that one of the sides was crumpled. As if something was lodged to the side for a fair amount of time. Any ideas what could've caused this? Maybe faulty installation or faulty product.

It probably got caught on something on the install...it's not hard to do. I usually have to take it out again or tap it a couple of times to get it to seat correctly.
