What 'rages' have you seen or been involved in?

a golf one with two drunkards (subsequently proven to be gays one 58 and his bf 23) playing ahead of me in the States and driving their cart across the edge of the green. I made the mistake of driving up at the next tee to take their name of their bags on the cart (as I should have gone back) has the course came close into the clubhouse at the end of 4.
As I took the details, the elder runs off the tee and swings at me, and connected his face with his own clubs. Long and short of it I get apprehended (not arrested) for drawing blood on him - the police realising that I was not directly involved. However, it did result in a court case but then, eventually, the whole thing was cancelled when it came to light that the bf had physically assaulted the son of the local mayor in a restaurant's toilets (and his 4th such offence).
However, apart from the emotional stress, I was nearly a $1000 out of pocket on lawyers fees and, my god, was he homophobic! The shenanigans involving the District Attorney's office were ridiculous and this tipped him to concentrating on oil leases etc, as they should have seen the light and the evidence well in advance.
Moral of the story was that I should have counted to 10 and assessed the risks - therefore going back to the club house, rather than take their names. And it was a reasonably prestigious course that has hosted USGA Ladies events. In many ways, I think public US courses have better ettiquette than the private clubs. You hear so many stories - I just hope that this behaviour does not translate to clubs over here.
I enjoyed my Kent golf this weekend - lots of fun and all the members were very nice, but given I was playing with the 80 year old Hon. President as one of our group, I guess the deference was to be expected! (she got around in 90)

I'm actually now getting quite cross thinking about the bloody school run in the morning and the amount of kids on scooters on the pavements who's parents don't blink if the little darlings run in to you ankle without any kind of apology or acknowlegement that they've hurt you... In my day scooters were for the park and for out playing and not on the way to school.... Well actually, said parent did do more than blink when I pulled him up for it, tit!
And then there was the time when I was on my crutch and I'd moved right to the side of the road so a family could get past, now it's a small road so some form of single file would have been necessary at some point, did they do that? Did they ***... I got wacked in the bad leg, the child laughed as I actually doubled over a bit and mum stared blankly... so I had a word with her too.
I now walk on the other side of the road. Fecking feckless wonders!

Lane Rage-swimming lane, not motorway lane!
Quite common, seen it loads of time and have been on the receiving end of it!
I go swimming 3-4 times a week and swim lengths, but if your swimming in someones way they can get quite angry.....but it always seems to be the older one's who lose it! Wouldn't mind but I go at 7am and they can go anytime of the day!
