The number one thing I do while driving is yell obscenities at stupid people.

That reminds me of one of the other top 10 things that people do while driving that I cannot imagine trying to do while doing like 65 with hundreds of other cars around me!

This is definitely in my top 5.  Use a turn signal a-hole!
And while you guys may be joking around, I work too close to too many disgusting truck drivers. They come back from deliveries talking about low cut tops and short skirts like they've never been laid before. Its extremely disturbing. And its not like one or two of them. Its all but one or two of them.
Let this be a disclaimer to every woman who reads this: Truck drivers are staring down at you.

That's the worst. Note to drivers: turn signals are pointless if you turn them on after coming to a full stop in the middle of the intersection. There's a light on my drive home where the road is two lanes. The left lane turns 50% of the time or is otherwise going straight. When a car pulls up to that light in front of you, you have to decide whether to get in the line in the right lane or bank on that car in the left going straight. You would think they would have the courtesy to put the blinker on, but no, you get behind them, the right lane fills up, the light turns green, they roll forward a bit, stop, THEN TURN ON THE BLINKER. Are you ****ing kidding me?.

I talk more when I am alone in the car that at any other period in my life. I call people the most horrific names when I'm driving... I can't even think of one now that I am not in the car...

Dick...I kinda had a feeling that was the case!
I used to have crazy road rage, but now I just think it's a waste of precious energy. Atlanta has the heaviest traffic in the country, so as you can imagine, we have TONS of horrible drivers!! So most of the time I just mentally flip them off & move on!

Drivers that don't use their turn signals do make me really angry!

Lot of cities like that Ondi, but you are right, Atlanta is right up there, I used to drive up to Pa. every summer when I lived in Florida using I- 75.
Did my best to time the drive through at night or very early morning.
It seemed that once I cleared Atlanta, the ride was over, but it was not. Cincinnati, O., Atlanta, and Tampa, Fl.(via the Sunshine Bridge) were nerve eaters.
One more thing about turn signals, if you are pulling out to go right, or left I guess, and a car has its turn signals on turning into where you are pulling out from----- WAIT UNTIL IT TURNS before you pull out, no matter what.
Some people forget they are on, and some do this to whack you for the Ins. money if you do pull out. |

Speaking of men staring...Our mailman is this young, kinda geeky kid. A couple of minutes ago, he knocked on the door bc he had some packages that I needed to sign for. As I opened the door, my earring came off and went straight down my shirt. Without even thinking about it, I tried to reach for it...But I immediately realized that maybe I shouldn't do that in front of the mailman, so I stopped and looked up as I heard something hit the floor. The mailman was staring at me and the thump I heard was that he had dropped all the packages on the floor! I tried not to laugh bc the poor guy was blushing. As he was picking the boxes off the floor, I explained to him that my earring came off...He said with a shaky voice, "ohhhhh...I hope it's not broken!" What the heck did he think I was doing??? haha
