I was tailing behind a big truck today, when our vehicles came to a curved section of the road. A quick glance to the side of that curve, lay a group of stray dogs (about 3 of them)… hanging out, doing things that dogs are supposed to do… you know, like licking each other’s anus and checking out whatever’s so important around it. They looked fairly harmless though, minding their own business.
I could see the truck passing right beside where the canines were hanging out. Just as its front wheels rolled pass the spot, suddenly, the truck driver blared its loud air horn (that could blow even a deaf mule). I have no idea idea why did the truck driver do that. There weren’t any vehicles in front of the truck and obviously, the dogs weren’t blocking its way either. They were just merely basking on the dirt by the side of the road.
The reaction was predictable, all the 3 dogs simultaneously jerked up half a feet up into the air (quite a sight)… and scampered blindly into a bush nearby.
I was laughing so hard that I almost swayed my car off the road (during the curve) from wiping my tears. Luckily, I was alert enough to relieve my wiping hands and yank the steering to get the vehicle get back on the road. Else I would have ended up hitting a tree.
Damn dogs. Their stupidity and clumsiness that makes us laugh can be so fucking dangerous sometimes… especially when one’s driving.
Come think of it, wouldn’t it be cool to install a similarly powerful air-horn on my Lorraine? I can imagine the cool things I can do with it – like waking up my neighbors… freaking out some stray animals … or probably supply some shock therapy to pedestrian housewives … wooo !
What fren installed a BMW horn into his Honda EX5 motor bike.And whenever he reach a person’s house,he honk and….the next door uncle and auntie will look at him.
dat would be so coooool! haha
imagine using that on stupiak kapchais… buden i duwan be a murderer… :(
I used to “jump up” when riding my bike when these truck sounded their horn for no reason. Cho lim pek teok cheh kia!
If you go to A Formosa in Melaka, you can see beca with their kick ass honks! Really damn bloody loud!
Install a kick-ass laser gun too man…
kahkahkah…kelakar gila, salute mr michael
anjing jalanan memang selalu panik + menggelabah
i’m still in trauma for being chased by a dog.
so i will say, go scare them all off! woohoo!
Honk the wrong pedestrian housewife, your Lorraine is at risk. *muahahaha*
jason – BMW horns are just mediocre (though quite loud). I’m talking bout those truck horns … I wonder if it’s gonna affect the load and the car’s electrical properties.
water_junk – practice with discretion lor …
ks – i know what you mean, i was jolted countless of times before by trucks … it’s not pleasant. That’s what makes it so goddamn cool.
din – is there such a thing ? or is this some inane babbling due to the impending star wars season ? heheh
apomputeh – menggertak anjing kurap merupakan aktiviti yang paling saya gemari.
uculer – best thing to do when being chased by a dog is play dead. It will give a bite or two … but it will leave after a while.
lilian – I can assure that if it’s housewives with the stereotype cauliflower hairstyle carrying an umbrella … it won’t be wrong.
go install an airhorn that also plays a tune… will drive people (and dogs) gila!
I did that once to a stray cat that was looking in the opposite direction. And I am still amazed that cats can do a 180 turn without bending their limbs! LOL
lol.. soundwaves can be very powerful force too.. imagine some girlgirl wearing skirt crossing the road and your car is equipped with da 1KDb honk :P
Why not use a loud hailer cum horn instead that has been preprogrammed so that you can with a touch of a button blurt out pre recorded messages such as
“What died and climbed up your neck”
“Yo baby, you free tonight?”
“Move over bitch”
“F U”
or record messages found on this site http://www.roadrage.com/
Imagine pressing on the “FU” button a couple of times in quick session, might also be used for rap music. Could also consider including sound effects like a roar of a T-Rex in the neighbourhood at midnight would really be fun.
You are creative, go have fun.
ps. Just don’t do it in my neighbourhood :P
buaya – that’s kinda ah beng, isn’t it ?
mdmafia – i once accidentally made a dog did 360 by hitting it’s ass …
munkit – you’re more humsup that i had originally thought … *shakes head in disappointment*
southern – hey that’s a good idea ! Low budget can use those mono loudspeaker ala “old newspaper” type. We can yell through the speaker directly… like :
“Hoi … that girl with the pink top …in that red kancil… there … there … stop picking your nose.”
there are lots of fun things u can do with an air horn… for example, http://www.lookatentertainment.com/v/v-114.htm
Last I heard truck type horn is illegal for normal cars???
you are not allowed to have it on small cars, trucks are allowed because they usually dont get into cities..or other very populated areas..
I would Luv to do that to my neighbors especially thier stankin azz dogs that bark howl every damn morning when a trian goes by. buuutttt i cant so i perfer water hoes
