ORIGINAL: LizDeluxe Something that really pissed me off this week. I was sitting at the stoplight at the intersection at the end of my road. The light was red. I was turning left. I was the first in line and I was safely behind the white line as I should be. It never fails. Some jackass comes up behind me and he wants to turn right. Now, if the lead car pulls up beyond the white line and partially into the crosswalk then the self absorbed fucker who is second in line can squeeze by and turn right. I don't do that. The white line is there for a reason. I have been second in line many times waiting to turn right and patiently waited until the light changed. Well, this guy is nudged as far as he could. Then it happens. The horn toot. I wasn't sure the first one was him. The second one I looked back to see him waving for me to move. I blew up. I let off the brake and tapped the gas and jerked my car up into the crosswalk (much to the chagrin of the folks on the cross street) as I was waving my arms in anger and rolling down my passenger window. You do not want to know the profanity that came forth from my mouth as he squeezed by. An entire fleet of longshoremen wouldn't hold a candle to me when I am pissed off. He wouldn't even make eye contact. Fortunately, I had someplace important to be or I might be typing this from jail right now. Although I am not very verbally kind to my fellow drivers it's just comments while I drive. I seldom lose my cool and never drive aggressively. Yesterday I was just not in the mood. I used to be an OTR trucker. The blatant stupidity of some drivers is beyond rational belief. As for this type of situation, I witnessed a similar thing this morning on my way to the plasma center. The only difference was the car trying to turn was a bit far out and got nailed by a car crossing the intersection. The car that hit the turning vehicle was knocked into the adjacent lane and was promptly hit by another vehicle. The first car hit was knocked up on the curb into the side walk and into two kids who were waiting to cross the street to go to school. The car behind the impatient bitch wanting to turn, a police cruiser... who was about to turn on his lights after she pulled up into the crosswalk and intersection.
