I was crossing a busy intersection near the parish when a car made a late, illegal left hand turn just as the light turned green for oncoming traffic. He got himself trapped in front of oncoming traffic while all the pedestrians followed their signal and began to cross the intersection. A little old lady in front of me was walking hesitantly into the intersection. The perturbed oncoming drivers started honking at the car blocking them since they had the right of way. The little old lady mistook the honks as though they were from the car sitting at the edge of the crosswalk illegally and got very upset.
I immediately recognized her as a parishioner from her thick Irish brogue when she yelled, "Ah, shut up, y'asshole!" and flipped him the bird.
I hope she wasn't coming back from her pre-Christmas confession...
