I need an explanation. What is behind "the look"? You know the one. You're standing outside a store, just doing your thing and examining the window display. Then someone walking past you bumps you so that you fall forward, and as you recover and look back at the person who pushed you, they give you this "look." Or, sometimes you're driving and you're in the right turn lane, and someone who forgot to get into that lane decides to cut you off without any warning. As they drive past you, they turn their head straight towards you and give the "look." You ALWAYS get this "look" from someone who has just done something obviously wrong or something extremely rude to you. What I don't get is that the "look" is never one that suggests, "Oops! My bad!" It is always a "What the f*k!" look. As if you're the one who has done something wrong. What in the world? Shouldn't I be the one doing that? Why does the person who decides to "kinda" pull over without signaling and park his car with his passenger side 3 ft from the curb thus continuing to block the lane giving ME this accusatory glare? After all, they're the ones who suck!
The look I am talking about here should not be confused with another common look that I've often received in similar situations. The other look you often get (and not the subject of this rant) is the "Hee hee! Isn't it funny how I just almost hurt, betrayed, messed with, or possibly killed you?" look. I don't need an explanation for that one. I know exactly what is going on in the minds of jerks who give me that one.
