I sideswiped a van with my pannier this morning.

I saw one car door another on the way home. Or maybe it was the other way around. Picture two cars next to each other, one a half length ahead of the other. Dude steps off the curb, crosses in front of the car on the right, opens the passenger door of the car on the left and leaves the door open while he takes a million years to get in. Driver on the right decides he can't wait for the slowpoke so he steers around the open door, and almost, but not quite misses it. Bumper snags the door and the door starts to bend back slowly. Meanwhile, the slowpoke sees this, but instead of making any motions, gestures or yelling something, he just watches. Eventually, the door bends back enough for the car to get around it, then pops back. Meanwhile, I'm stuck behind these two morons, enjoying the display of stupidity.
