Not sure if I was intentionally mixing metaphors, but what I meant was when someone does bad crap to you (ie the old guy in the parking lot), by going out of your way to be mean back it usually perpetuates more of the same bad luck. Hence his car getting dinged.

Sometimes, you gotta let things go. So, the old guy was an ass. Maybe he can't see well, or is just a bad driver, and didn't intentionally cut him off. You are young and mobile, perhaps he is not so. It the guy was handicapped would that have made a difference? I've had it happen to me. The bitch that did it laughed. Of course, twenty things ran through my head that I could have done in retribution -- but I let it go. Someday, she'll get hers back.

And My Name is Earl is pretty funny.
