To shame the grown men that deliberately frighten babies

Just putting the babies in the car after a days shopping at Trafford Centre.
Parked on the indoor car park bit, expecting it to piss down as standard.
So there we are, just getting the babies, 8 month old twins in their seats and 6-8 sports cars pull alongside our car. They can see we have babies, watched us putting them in their seats, haven’t even folded the pushchair up, in fact, one of the fuckers nearly hit it as they were lining up....
So they sit there revving then all of a sudden launch the cars right next to us, popping and banging. Honestly the noise was horrific. These are not your average corsas with bits of kids, this was TEAM AMG UK and grown fucking men in their mostly leased performance cars. Bits of kids don’t own this shit.

Btw, really smart putting the name of the car club on the car when you’re gonna behave like a bellend 😂😂😂😂😂

Anyway, couldn’t wait 2 fucking minutes for us to leave first, or better still take the smallest dick contest elsewhere!

For what it’s worth, I can appreciate the sound of a decent car, and yeah in the right place right time fair enough. But to do that right next to babies just makes you look what you are....... A CUNT!

Rant over.

Eh?

I dont think their intention was to scare your babies. I might have been annoyed as well in your position but would also realise the world doesnt revolve around my babies...

KissmyassTeamAMGUK · 23/06/2019 19:28

It’s a car park, not a race track. They were practically lined up in my boot

They are dicks but it sounds as though they were absorbed in their own activities and indifferent to your children, rather than deliberately setting out to frighten them as you say. Unclench

LazyDaisey · 23/06/2019 19:30

Go on then, publish their plates on here. Either publicly shame them or don’t, but you’re just being passive aggressive in your OP

Oldbat66 · 23/06/2019 19:31

I don’t think their intention was to scare your babies either, they sound too bloody thick to be able to form intentions.

BottomliePotts · 23/06/2019 19:31

Is bits of kids a colloquialism? I've not heard it before

Sounds really annoying so YANBU. What did you do?

RiddleyW · 23/06/2019 19:32

They don’t sound like a mumsnet demographic so are unlikely to be getting the full brunt of this shaming. I suggest twitter

GroggyLegs · 23/06/2019 19:35

I doubt it was deliberate.

I doubt they even clocked that a mum and children were there, as it was irrelevant in their willy waving world.

Honeybee85 · 23/06/2019 19:36

willy waving world

Love that one GrinGrinGrin

Justblockthebitch · 23/06/2019 19:40

I sympathise with you OP, the ones driving cars like that are the ones who will quite happily keep revving their engines when you are trying to cross the road.
Its frustrating their not giving a damn about personal space, as a learner I come across these dicks the minute I go out on the road

spugzbunny · 23/06/2019 19:41

I do t understand at all! Am I too old?

Where were they lining up? Were they parki
G next to you in which case why were 6 of them parking in the bay next to you? How?

What is popping and banging?

There are cunts in the world. I believe you completely

Do you recognise the offending cars from this line up

Redglitter · 23/06/2019 19:53

Your thread title is a bit over dramatic. They didn't deliberately frighten your babies I'm quite sure they didn't know they were there

I have a feeling they won't see this thread either

NotNowNinja · 23/06/2019 19:54

They sound like utter bellends

SpanglyPop · 23/06/2019 19:55

🙄

ForalltheSaints · 23/06/2019 19:55

If you think they have committed an offence go to the police.

PatoPotato · 23/06/2019 20:02

I hate when people rev their engines or whatever it's called. When we lived in London we could hear it all night sometimes, because you know I guess that was the best time for them when people were trying to sleep. It's like a way to make little dick announcements to the neighbourhood.

SuperSara · 23/06/2019 20:02

You were doing ok until this bit, OP: ...in their mostly leased performance cars

How the fuck do you know how they paid for them?

They would still be twats if they paid for them in cash.

Do you think that leasing cars is something to look down on?

DipDabLollyPop · 23/06/2019 20:05

Report to the club and police for antisocial behaviour YANBU ignore the idiots on here Xxx 💐💐💐

Justaboy · 23/06/2019 20:07

Suppose they were hyped up as old Lewis won the grand prix today by some 11 seconds was it?.

And for Mercedes!..

SeasideSoul · 23/06/2019 20:09

Do you think Team AMG are on Mumsnet? 😂

I'm certain it wasn't deliberate. As a PP said upthread, the world doesn't revolve around your kids.

EveryFlightBeginsWithAFall · 23/06/2019 20:10

Pisses me right off, my youngest has asd and the revving really upsets him
