Ever been embarrassed by other BMW driver?

Yesterday I was behind a new 3 series at a traffic light, several cars from intersection. Light changed and other cars proceeded but the new 3 series didn't move. I was just about to toot the horn when the driver woke up or put the phone down, whatever. I just made it through the intersection before the light changed again, and a couple cars behind me that should have made it through didn't.

So I thought, fine, that's happened to us all. But after being slow, the new 3 series driver now proceeded to rev the engine and, way above the speed limit, drive in and out of lanes trying to get ahead of all the other traffic.

I thought, "Geez, how many other drivers are reciting the 'difference between a porcupine and BMW driver' joke?"

I drive an sDrive X1, by the way. Pretty sure that was a 328, so same engine, at least. I try not to be a porcupine when I drive...
