Swim rage!

Two lanes - one fast, one unlabelled. One guy in the unlabelled lane right up behind everyone, overtaking without enough room and generally being an arse. I ask him, not that politely it must be said, to stop swimming so close behind everyone and to go in the fast lane if he can't swim slower.

He says "what do you want me to do if I'm not fast enough for the fast lane" and "you should swim faster". Well, actually, I'm quite fast but I am moderating my speed because I'm not in the fast lane and I don't want to be today. Plus, if it's that fucking easy to swim faster, you do it and go in the fucking fast lane.

I told him he was probably one of those drivers that drive right up the arse of the person in front. He said that in his plane he flies behind the other planes, and he did this stupid aeroplane thing with his hands. So funny, he looked like a right mug.

Anyway, yes I was unreasonable for being sarcastic and rude and for being happy when he made himself look stupid but aibu by MN standards? Please say No 😂

The original is rage was about a chap who wasn't fast enough for the fast lane (his words) and then proceeded to act like a prick in the unlabelled lane, by overtaking without room, causing people to have to stop mid length or not push off. When I challenged him about it he said we should swim faster.

No room to over over, arrogant prick, made himself look like a prick by asking people to swim faster after admitting he couldn't do so in the lane.

If that helps.
