I've bitched about it before, but on the way home from work tonight, I was almost slammed into by some asshole in a minivan who didn't signal a lane change in crowded traffic. She almost slammed into my driver's side fender. Would have, if I hadn't stomped the brakes and laid on the horn. Took a good couple of seconds for her to get the message and ( Read more... )

So, she offered it to me. It's an XL (which is my size in most shirts) too. Very cool. I've worked there less than two weeks, and already I've picked up two Jack ( Read more... )

The reason I see so many black guys driving nice new cars is that they keep totaling them and insurance keeps replacing them ( Read more... )

One thing I wanted to bitch about before I forget... people drive like complete assholes here ( Read more... )
