Yesterday, as I was leaving work early for no other reason than to get the lunch special at Rawbar because it's the bomb diggity, I came to the conclusion that I have a wee bit of road rage. But it's not unprovoked. I have a case of idiot-induced road rage. There I said it. So here's my open letter to those people who seem to have either A. Got their license in 1943 when the roads weren't quite as "dangerous" or B. Drivers who don't look a day over 15 and take over the roads like it's their own personal playground.
Dear horrible, no good, very bad drivers:
To start, when you are coming out of a parking lot, you must look both ways as there is a little thing called traffic that HAS THE FREAKIN' RIGHT OF WAY. Maybe your hat was pulled just a little too low (wearing it the correct way would help) or your low-rider was just a little too low to see over the parked car. Either way, when you nearly pull out in front of me and I have to slam on my brakes, I expect an apologetic wave... NOT A MIDDLE FINGER. I WILL SHOVE THE MIDDLE FINGER WHERE THE SUN DON'T SHINE. DOUCHNOZZLE.
Further, I am a firm believer that if you are going 15 under the speed limit because you are either old or high, get off the road.
In closing, I consider myself a very good driver. No tickets, no accidents, not even one close call (knock knock) and I've been driving since I was 15. So, all of you awful drivers out there, please... PLEASE... take your head out of your ass, open your eyes and PAY ATTENTION!
Sincerely,
This girl.

On a lighter, much happier note, Prop h8 was ruled unconstitutional yesterday. FINALLY. I hope you're all paying attention... this is the civil rights movement of our generation. Love is love. I'm proud to say I'm a Californian again!
Some people need to not have a drivers license.
ReplyDeleteWow! This is perfect. I have written many mean posts before (on other blogs and on myspace) about stupid ass drivers. It seriously pisses me off. So I agree and support what you said.
ReplyDeleteALso I was uber excited about Prop 8 being overturned! Hll to the yueah. This hits home to me because my brother is Gay so I am very happy to be a Californian
Woohoo! Equality!
ReplyDeleteugh, I hate people who suck at driving and then pretend everyone else is bad.

ReplyDeleteB) I have been in a facebook debate on my local new stations facebook page for three days!
