I'll chime in on the driving thing.....

I dislike it when there is an impeded driver - not drunk or high, but impeded... elderly, physical disability, ect, having a hard time operating a vehicle in traffic- and who choose to attempt driving erratically and out of sync with their environment instead of waiting for a more agreeable to their limitations environment, or simply handing the keys over to someone who can drive properly... I really dislike that, because they put others at risk with whatever their motivation is be it pride, stubbornness, or just lost in their own world oblivious to what havoc they create... as i said, i really dislike that...

but i hate.... i mean hate when some jackass puts unneeded pressure on one of those^ types... they tailgate them- blow their horn- pass them in questionable circumstances or just plain dangerously.. they do this as if they're 'teaching them a lesson'.. as if the intimidation factor will all of the sudden 'snap one of those^types to compliance'- when what they're doing is making matters much much worse...

/end rant.

I get that, but, sometimes people get on the road in rush hour (hours here in my area) and have nowhere to go and all day to get there. And they get in the left, other left, center, right and other right lanes.


This is not a good thing. Just stay home, perhaps, or get with the program and drive like others. Ya know. Keep up with traffic or something.

WTF?


PBR gave Canada the greatest Christmas gift of all: 99-can beer cases

I was at a restaurant in town, which always has very interesting beer (good food too),  they had Nitro Pabst for some reason.  I just had to get it.   It was still PBR.

Back to driving annoyances...

I do a fair amount of driving on the interstate, not just commuting within your own city to/from work but driving across the state or to other states for hours at a time, and I've encountered some absolutely aggravating behaviors in my experience.

People who refuse to use and/or have no clue what cruise control is AND also have no idea how to maintain a specific speed. On the open interstate I use the hell out of cruise control, but I often will eventually catch up to someone completely baffled by it's purpose or simply thinking keeping the same speed is for losers or something. So I catch up to some car while I'm in cruise control and I'll pass him up. And see him drift back several car lengths in my rear view mirror. Then he starts catching back up to me and even eventually passes me. Weird, but whatever. Enjoy your new faster pace, stranger. Then he'll get a couple hundred yards ahead of me and sure enough, I start gaining on him slowly but surely and end up passing him right back. This process sometimes will repeat right up until one of you reaches your exit, all the while I never once deviate from my selected speed on my cruise control.

Similar to the above example is encountering people on the freeway who are in what shall be called "speed denial". These are the people you catch up to on the freeway while going your steady, constant speed. Sometimes given the circumstances you'll see this person miles ahead of you while you gain ground on them and when you finally catch up to them they speed up either matching your speed or even faster. It's like these people were 100% content with their choses speed right up until someone had the audacity to go even faster than them. No way, can't allow that. 

Once while driving from Albuquerque to Los Angeles, the bulk of which is driven on I-40, I caught up to a car around Kingman, AZ. He did the exact scenario I just described and decided, for whatever reason, I was not to pass him at all. Except rather than match my speed (which I am maintaining a constant via cruise control) ahead of me or simply speed up and eventually leave me behind this guy speed up when I would catch up to him and maybe about a mile or two ahead of me he'd slow back down. Every single time I caught up to him he'd bout a mile or two ahead of us and let me catch back up. We did this little dance all the way to Barstow, CA (little over 200 miles from where I first encountered him) before he finally exited.

I can't even have a nice new vehicle for less than 6 months without some dumbtwat swerving into me.  That's what I hate about driving at the moment! 

First brand new vehicle I have bought in almost 20 years, and it's the brightest orange vehicle I have seen, and people still don't see me coming.  Not sure what else to do except put a blaring ice-cream-truck-style-siren to tell drivers that I'm there and to stay out of my way. I guess having a bright color just isn't enough.    :73:

At least the lady had insurance, and now I'm hoping I can get some compensation for diminished value of this brand new vehicle along with the repairs.

I hate people with carry on bags.

I check a bag and I carry a brief case.   I wish everyone did.

Instead it takes 25 to board a plane and 25 minutes to deboard because everyone else has to cram their carryon luggage into the overhead.

I also hate people who recline their seats, cross aisle talkers and farters.
