I've read posts about Hummer owners getting flamed and yelled at by treehuggers, etc, etc.
I've owned my H2 for a week and today I was trying to turn left into a gas station. Traffic was backed up and as I turned in, I was blocked by the rear end of a car. Both his and my window was down so I asked the guy if he wouldn't mind pulling up a few feet for me. (since he had over a car length in front of him)
He mumbled something about if I was able to get my bus pass him...blah, blah, blah.
Known for my sensitivity and lack of bluntness, I screamed at him asking "WTF did you say?"
"If you got something to say, have the balls to say it to my face"... He wouldn't look at me.
Sooooo, here we go, I guess I just joined the rank of the environmental destroying, ozone eating, fuel consuming, earth hating mofo's.
Geesh, can't wait till they say something about my gas mileage.

Ya know I've never gotten one nasty comment or look since I've gotten my truck (knock on wood), only compliments!  Thank god, because I don't do confrontation! Maybe it's because I'm female, I don't know, but it seems that the guys on here have to put up with that sort of attitude the most. I do get the inevitable question about mileage, but they're just curious and surprised to hear it's not the 6mpg they assumed. I love to educate them about the mis-information that is always spewed about the H2. They almost always end up leaving with a smile and a new understanding!

Reluctantly....If he hadn't, then we would have had a problem.

Oh yeah, that's exactly it. He wouldn't even look at me... little bitch, I almost got out of my truck but it ain't worth getting riled up I guess for someone else's stupidity.

I'm a bit more sarcastic about it. Anytime anyone ever says anything to me, I just put a big smile on my face and respond with "You must be having a really bad day, huh?" They hate it when you act sarcastically nice to them.
Or, I create a gun like figure out of my hand and shoot them. No words necessary there!

I was blocked in by an insensitive driver once. Actually, two insensitive drivers one recent night.
Parked behind me (illegally, I might add) was a limo service black Escalade and a limo service green Jag. The way they were parked blocked me and a batch of handicapped spots that were opposite of my parking space and behind me.
The drivers were out of their vehicles chatting away, and one of them made the comment of "I'll make them wait until we are done with our conversation" as I was loading up the kid into his rocket seat.
We all buckled in, I started the H1, put the truck into reverse, and started backing up. With the new Hella work lamp I installed as my backup light, it lit everything up quite nicely. Obviously, there wasn't enough space for me to back up unless they moved or I moved them.
Mr. Escalade panicked, got in, and moved his truck. Mr. Jag backed his away from the area.
So - be prepared. People are asses sometimes.

Some prayer from some religion that I think I could like:
Please help me to remember...when I'm having a really bad day, and it seems that people are trying to piss me off, that it takes 42 muscles to frown and only 4 to extend my middle finger and tell them to bite me!
