He doesn’t look like a doormat, because he looks like one of those yappy little purse-dogs who gets away with constantly barking his head off because everyone - even the bigger dogs - are so taken aback by the ridiculousness of his tiny-brained ferocity that they can’t quite bring themselves to smack the poor, pathetic little thing around.
Road rage? More like road petulance. Does a whole bunch of screaming about what a hard-ass he is - and then backs down. And then screams some more about what a hard-ass he is.
Or would be, I’m sure, if anyone would give his ridiculous yapping the time of day.
