This qualifies as whine, so nicely placed.

Don't bad mouth the software, you'll scare off the new guy. All is fine, all is well, no problems here.

As long as we're ragging on the software I want all of you nameless, faceless, jealous cowards who have me at minus 200 points to know that I hate the fuckin' post rating system. Such ratings are not healthy for children and other living things.

Oh fuck you and your complaints. Just deal with the ratings like a man. Despite your uncomfortable advances, not everyone loves you. Live with it!









We have ratings?

You know...this isn't the warm welcoming space I was trying to create for the pool boy. It really isn't.

How bout trying a little background music from the new Samisoni Tikoinasau disc?

Tell me the truth....how many people have you been dying to say that to over the last few weeks/months?

It had to be some kind of therapeutic, no?

But I love the snow without cold. Discuss!

I hate 'shoulder runners' on the Capital Beltway.

Are they getting more aggressive these days? They are here. A few years ago down in FL I noticed a new passing technique where speeders would run right up behind you in the right lane, then zoom past on entrance/exit ramps. I now see this has made its way to NY. They try to speed up and time it so they just swerve around you and can pull this off on the short ramps at some exits. It will be trouble, however, when someone decides last minute this is their exit.

I am a firm believer in the death penalty for traffic offenses. My grandfather was killed by a guy speeding in a big truck hauling concrete drainage pipes. Traffic stopped, he couldn't. I never understood how this was any different than if he had been waving a machete around in a crowded room and chopped off someone's head. I think they should give a 15mph buffer, but anything over that and they should just have a roadside execution.

Is that too extreme?

well, here in the heartland, we solved the traffic problem by just ignoring the speed limit.

Autobahn?

Hah!

Try the Chrysler at 7:30am. Everyone is doing 95.

I've always felt that it should be perfectly acceptable to run someone off the road and kill them for failing to use their turn signal.

Run them off the road, make sure they're dead and shove the turn signal up their ass so the cops knows what form to fill out when they arrive.

This is a nice touch.

You are a good citizen to take the time to be so helpful to law enforcement.

This brought to mind an old episodic movie named "If I Had A Million", which featured 8 or so stories of what people did with the million dollar gift they were given randomly by a dying millionaire. As I remember it the pertinent episode featured W.C. Fields, who spent the money buying a fleet of cars and hiring a bunch of drivers for the purpose of getting back at the kind of drivers he has always despised and maniacally decries as "ROADHOGS". Fields and his minions drive down the road and when he spots someone whose driving pisses him off he summarily runs them off the road and leaves them and their (and his) vehicle crumpled along the side of the road/in a ditch/ etc. He then gets in the next vehicle in his fleet and dispatches the next offender and then does this over and over again. I've always thought that this kind of behavior would be really liberating and a huge amount of fun.

I believe a clip of this episode exists on youtube but I can't do the youtube thing here at work. If someone wants to check it out and feels that it's worthy of posting please add it to this thread.

Here you go...

Something I find liberating is an art form my cousin taught me...the rolling roadblock, or jam car. The key here is to make it appear you are not trying to do this...just that you are an idiot.

I will sometimes drive well out of my way to stay in front of someone who is riding right on my bumper and acting way too aggressive on the road. Most of the people I irritate are women in SUV's or Mini-Vans who drive around my neighborhood like they are transporting critically ill patients when in reality they are heading to soccer practice or to the A&P to buy a jar of paprika. Fuck them I say! If I can raise their blood pressure a bit, I consider it time well spent.

I do this also. It is just a part of being the passive/agressive wonder that is me.

Thanks. Of course I can't see it now but I hope it's as entertaining as I remember.

My excuse is that I really am an idiot....and yes...the clip is most entertaining!
