T-Rex: While riding my bike yesterday and making a TOTALLY LEGAL move from the side of the road into traffic so that I could make a left-hand turn, this car dude honked at me!
T-Rex: So I flipped him off. It was BICYCLE ROAD RAGE!
T-Rex: It was insane. I never get road rage, bicycle or otherwise, and I never flip anyone off! But here I was being all that I hate! I flipped him off without even looking behind, and THEN, after I flipped him off he honked at me again, two little ones, and I flipped him off again, two little ones. Then I turned left and got away!
Dromiceiomimus: Are you sure he was honking at you?
T-Rex: I am certain of it!
Utahraptor: But how are you sure he meant anything aggressive by it?
T-Rex: What else could he have meant?
Utahraptor: Well most cars have one horn that only makes one tone, right? So the only paths for sentiment encoding are honk duration and count. Maybe one honk from that guy means "Hey sexy!!" and two short honks means "Wait a minute! You're not so sexy!!"
T-Rex: Huh!
Narrator: A FEW WEEKS LATER, T-REX GETS HONKED AT AGAIN:
T-Rex: Excuse me, everyone? You saw what just happened! What do you think that driver meant to convey?
Off panel: That you're a very handsome, clever and successful young man!
T-Rex: MOM, I was asking the OTHER pedestrians
