just what skin you've chosen this day

It's probably a statement on my life at the moment that whenever I'm driving through downtown on my way home when the General Mills plant is manufacturing, my first thought is no longer "ooh, Cheerios" but is instead "huh, thiamine".

(For those curious: that smell Cheerios have isn't Cheerio-specific. It's the vitamin B1 in it.)

I hate it when people stop in the middle of the road to turn, and THEN put their signal lights on. Like, really? REALLY? Don't just stop in the middle of the road without warning.

To me, putting my turn signal on in an exit-only lane is a) habit, but also b) communication that yes, I do in fact know this is an exit-only lane, and am all on board with that plan! And thus am not planning to go WAIT WAIT I FORGOT TO READ THE SIGNS at the last minute and try to merge back into another lane's traffic. I can't help you with the people who never use turn signals, though; that's one of my big pet peeves.

Also, ooh, I didn't know that about thiamine. New fact!

Exactly what Gen said about using my turn signal in an exit only lane.

My annoyance is when you meet a person late at night on a country road and they don't drop their lights from bright until they are almost right to you. A little late, person, you've already blinded me and screwed up my nighttime vision.
