Stephanie  (stephec) -> FOUR WAY LIGHTS DO NOT MEAN YOU CAN PARK ANYWHERE YOU WANT. I hate when people park in no parking spots but then put their four ways on and think that makes it ok. IT’S NOT OK this is a no parking spot… not a park-here-but-only-if-you-have-your-four-ways-on spot. I HATE THAT!! Especially on this one road by my house, people park right there in the turning lane but they have their four ways on so it’s ok??? NO! It is not ok! I am driving and want to turn right – but I can’t because you are parked in the f-ing turning lane so I can’t get up there to turn and I hate you!
-> GO THE LIMIT, GET OFF THE ROAD OR I WILL RUN INTO YOU. I hate when people drive SO SLOW for no reason. The other day I was behind a lady doing 40 in a 60. I can’t stand it. I don’t need to go extremely fast or anything but this is ridiculous! What are you doing? I want to shoot myself because you’re such a moron!
-> OLD POEPLE. If old people want to drive that’s fine – but they should actually know how to drive. Honestly. I have nothing against old people but if you can’t see over the wheel or if you have a phobia of going more the 20 then get off of the road!!!
-> IT’S A STOP SIGN – NOT ROCKET SCIENCE! Why is it so hard for people to understand when it is your turn to go at a stop sign?? I hate it when I’m stuck behind some idiot who doesn’t know when to go and they just pull into the intersection a few feet then stop and look around like they have no idea what’s going on then people get impatient and just go or they wait and wait then go right at the same moment as the other person and they have to slam on the breaks because you’re an idiot.
-> PUNKS WHO LISTEN TO TECHNO WHO DON’T PAY ATTENSION. The other day I was driving down this one way street and I was coming up to an intersection and I had a green light and this young guy with gelled hair (who gels their hair anymore anyway?) wearing a head band and listening to techno with one arm hanging out of his suped up civic is obviously not paying attention and he thinks oh this looks like a good time to turn into on coming traffic! WHAT THE HELL? I had to slam on my breaks in order to not run right into him. We could have been in a major accident because this kid is more interested in looking cool and listening to his god awful music and not paying attention! Did you forget how a stop light works or did you think it was a four way stop? Maybe you should pay attention instead of being an idiot!

More to come I'm sure...

Kasia Nice road rage! I especially enjoyed your anecdote about the techno-punk-kid. Few things, however:

1. Techno is not some god awful music, some of it is really quite good

2. You have to give him credit for originality, at least he did not copy the emo-mop-haircut, but went for the old school gel

3. Would it be so bad if he actually crushed?

Stephanie  (stephec) True... some people might like Techno... But in this situation it pissed me off!! lol But he did look like a dumb ass so I wont take back the making fun of his hair!

Rusty (rustyshackleford) | 2198 comments When you mentioned parking wherever you like if the hazards are on, I assumed you were in California, specifically L.A. They also have the unwritten dumb@$$ rules, that if you honk your horn, you can go through a red light, and three cars can turn left after the light turns red.

1. Techno is not some god awful music, some of it is really quite good

I'm gonna have to call B.S. on that.


message 5: by Kasia (new)

Kasia But I like a little techno from time to time. You're not gonna take that away from me. There's techno which you can enjoy only while on drugs (hard ones preferably), there's techno that's simply fun, and there's even the mellow electronic music kind. Techno is a broad term. No BS


message 6: by Stephanie (new)

Stephanie  (stephec) Ok so I do not like techno so it is my opinion that it is in fact GOD AWFUL! lol


message 7: by Kasia (new)

Kasia That's so.... so American. Is that a national sport or something? Hatred of techno?

Tom Foolery (tomfoolery) I've been meaning to write a traffic rant for some time now, but so far lazy has beat out angry.


Plenty of Americans like techno, Kasia. Most of them giggly teenagers dressed in blacklight reactive clothing with pacifiers in their mouths, and in desperate need of a good ass whuppin'.


Reads with Scotch }:-0 TOM! duder you are so inarticulate! BAM burn!

smetchie | 5729 comments Did you know they now have blacklight reactive tattoo ink? Sweet huh?

Kasia Yuck, Gretchen. No tattoos for me please, blacklight reactive or the old fashioned prison ones - none of them look good. But you go ahead, knock yourself out.

Was it not Mr. Foolery that said toilet language was for inarticulate people? Well I see 'ass' up there. Or was that a pruisain, oops Freudian slip?

Tom Foolery (tomfoolery) The phrase was "profanity is the crutch of inarticulate bastards," the inclusion of the word "bastards" rendering the whole an ironical statement.


Reads with Scotch damn... that's what I get for trying to out smug a prius owner. Damn my eyes!


message 17: by Tom (new)

Tom Foolery (tomfoolery) It's ok. I've gotten hostility for using that statement before. "Fuck you! You sayin' i'm stupid because i cuss? Fuck you." "Well...i wasn't saying you're stupid a minute ago, but now..."
