;timSonofabitch!!!!!

What the fuck is wrong with this world?!  Oh, get ready for a non-descript rant and yes, I'm feeling selfish right  now.

Fuckin' get the FUCK out of the GOD DAMNED PASSING LANE IF YOU'RE NOT FUCKING PASSING!!!!!

No offense to my freinds here but MASSACHUSETTS BREEDS THE WORST DRIVERS ON EARTH!  In the fucking passing lanes no matter where you go, driving the fucking speed limit or LESS and causing a cluster fuck of traffic for miles behind them!  jesus christ move!!!!!  Get the fuck out of the passing lane!!!

I have been made late to work 3 times in the past 2 weeks because some dink feels it necessary to fucking drive in the passing lane(s) *yes, sometimes there are 3 lanes and they are ALL being blocked!

Why?!  Why the hell do you feel the need to be such a pompous ass and drive there???!!!  you look at me with your arrogant glare like I'VE done something wrong!!!  nOOOOOOOO, it's you ya prick MOVE!

Look, I don't condone speeding in any sense, but I do drive roughly 5-10mph faster than the posted 65mph when the weather and road conditions allow.  I know my car, I know the roads, I know my tires, rims etc. and if I want to get pulled over by the cops it's my damned insurance and ticket to pay! 

Do you know what causes accidents???? people who fucking talk on cell phones, don't use turn signals and zip from lane to lane without looking behind them and then back up traffic while weaving side to side in and out of the lane they are in (usually the passing lane) and don't fucking pay attention to their mirrors, the weather, the traffic or anything else but their fucking selves!

I've HAD IT!  I'm going to find a place that will sell me a flat screen display that I can put on my windshield and type in "MOVE THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAY!" or whatever is pertinent at the time in a mirror image so the prick can see it in their rearview mirror!

If you flash to pass you get brake checked - I got repromanded a few years ago by a NH state trooper when I flashed to pass on 95 south because grandma in her Toyota Camry was going 55 in a 65 in the passing lane (what a fuckin' shocker right??!) and of course, the center lane and driving lane (where this bonehead should have been) was occupied by similar boneheads...but that's ok...they were where they need to be.  Out of the fuckin' way!

I have to drive 293N to 93N from Manchester - Concord every morning and there is always some dumb fuck in the passing lane on 293 feels the need to drive there.  I don't need my own personal pace car thanks!

Oh, I've had such a shitty day and I really need a break, my ankles, legs and back are FUCKED right up, the holidays are killing me, work is a bitch & I'm turning 34 in 19 freakin' days!

;tim;tim;tim;tim;tim;tim;tim;tim;tim;tim;tim

I would like to appologize for the mass assholes that drive in the fast line.
I have to make a confession... Bill is one of those assholes :(

I have asked him why he feels the need to do that. He has excuses. The excuse. There is no passing lane. There are travel lanes. THe lane to the far right is the slow lane, all other lanes are if equal rating *also giving him the right to pass on the right*

I have tried to break him of this habbit... climed up is ass about his obsession with the left lane eventhough he drives like a pussy. He will not listen. I think its bread into them or something.

My sincerest appologies

I couldn't agree more. Maybe there's something in the water that makes them do that. It's true here in Ohio as well.  A very close second here is pulling out in front of people. If you're going 35-40 mph & see someone waiting to pull onto the street, if they have 4-5 car-lengths before you get there, they're going to pull out. Even in winter. Even when streets are snow covered.

BTW happy future B'day. Mine's tomorrow.

Chelly, here's what to do. Get rid of your fog lights. That's right, just trash'em. In the empty slots, install the devices that are on the "Speakeasy" thread, under "Don't push the wrong button.";idhit;up

Here ya go Chelly. I think this is what you may be looking for. They make bigger displays too, what you see on the website is not all that is to be had. I seen their set up at the state fair and they had some nice stuff.

Reminds me, I'm down to one and it's coming up to road trip time.

" & I'm turning 34 in 19 freakin' days!"

Happy Birthday in advance:)

Well... as a floridian living in Oklahoma, I'd say that Tulsans are the much worse. 90% of Tulsans drive at least 5 under the limit on the freeway and NONE know how to merge. None. That, and most don't look before they turn. They are worse even than Virginians who I thought were the worst till i moved here.

OH YES!!!! This is GREAT!!!  I just wish there were like an adhesive strip that I could stick on my windshield up top and just type away when I need to.  Oh, man...loving this website!

Well, to further the madness on Wednesday - Dan bought me a wonderful gift for Christmas - 65mm FC TB and put it in for me.  Well, Wednesday on my way home, the spring popped off and my TB was stuck open...had to downshift to slow and bring the RPMS down from 6000+!!!  lost my shit to say the least when I got home.

I slammed the door so hard I thought I was going to knock it out of the wall - frame and all - then I went and kicked my shoes off...one went flying at my plants and the window in the living room - then I started ripping down Christmas decorations in a fit of rage...Dan left... took his tools outside to fix the TB.  Poor Mack thought I was going to kill him...but he soon calmed down - so did I after a frenzy of cleaning. 

Yes - I apologized to Dan and Mack and I love them both - So I was an ass to let loose, but man, I was gonna burst.  whew...ended up with a migraine yesterday so took a day off from work...All is well today.

No TRAFFIC ON THE ROADS THIS MORNING!  :clap

So true, I honestly think that MANY people here just don't know that the left lane is the fast lane or passing lane. I don't care if you want to drive in the left lane all day so long as you're going faster than the people behind you. If some lunatic wants to drive 100 mph and is coming up on you, then you yield the left lane so he can pass. You wouldn't think it's that hard, but people are only interested in themselves so some don't give a shit if you're pissed off at them or late for work or trying to get to the hospital, etc. it's not their problem.

I understand the whole flash to pass premise, but here in New England it will just get you a brake job from some dick who thinks you're being impatient.

I can admit that in some instances I am very impatient, but it's due to the sheer stupidity of the drivers.  How the hell do these people get a drivers license anyway?!

Dan made the comment Monday night and I agree - random testing on all drivers should be conducted when they go to renew their licenses.

I will say this though...my new assistant used to live in Arizona and she told me that she didn't have to renew her license for 70 years!!!!  what the f***!!!!  Arizonans out there, can you verify this???  Who else out there do I need to worry about?!!!!

Oh, and as for how the rest of that day went - I nearly tore up the condo and scared Mack and pissed Dan off and killed a plant when I kicked off one of my shoes.  It was a bad day all around.  Glad it's over...I wanted to punch someone in the worst way.

I just don't get some people.

Asshole Driver - "I will do 60mph in the left lane if I want to and no one can pass me because I paid my taxes for these roads and I will drive on them how ever I want."

Me - "Sir, I will give you your taxes back if you will STAY THE FUCK OFF THE ROADS !!!"

:driv

They need to post these signs every mile on all major highways in the cities, not rural area's. I believe the statement on this sign is also in the drivers manual. Read people. Follow the rules.
