Driving Miss Crazy
 

Are you one of those charming drivers who make the expressways extra annoying? Here's a checklist, and all additions are welcome!

-I'm not the pace car. Do you follow right on my butt in wide open traffic because you're afraid to pass me, or because you're just afraid and probably shouldn't be driving?

-Do you know that you can accelorate while your cruise is on so that you can pass more efficiently, thereby allowing the dozen other cars you've trapped to be on their way?

-Good news! If you set your cruise control, I won't have to keep passing you as if we're in a ping-pong match!

-If you're in the left lane, you'd better be passing someone, otherwise, get over!

-How does your cell phone manage to make your car slow down to 50 mph? If you can't pay attention to your driving, should you also be on the phone??

-Fix that muffler! You stink! Stay behind me!

-The point of that nice long entrance ramp is so you can get your car moving fast enough to enter the flow of traffic, not to get adjusted and fasten your seatbelt while finding the best places for your Big Mac and giant soft drink!

-When you bolted around me in the right lane, did you honestly not notice that you were going 20mph faster than the car I'm in line to pass?

please don't go the same speed as the car in the lane next to you- especially if there are cars lined up behind you- speed up a bit or pull over to let others pass.

If cruising in the right hand lane and a on ramp/merge lane is coming up - just check it to see if cars may need room to enter - if the left lane is empty just move over for a bit to make merging easier.

:( dang jo....if you don't drive the same speed as the hunk next to you...how do you get a chance to check him out and flirt? :p

*Honking at Curi... long and LOUD!*

:eek: guess i had better put my lipstick away too.

:p :p
*slides mascara back into purse*

Ok Cindy, you started this thread to get back at me didn't you! She hates talking to me on the phone while I am driving cuz I yell at stupid drivers! LOL!

I hate drivers who think that formation driving is a something that you must do! Now mind you, I am a pilot and formation flying is something that is done in the AIR, NOT ON THE GROUND IN A CAR! Get that. Pass me, get behind me, or get in front of me. Don't stay in my blind spot. Cuz, I will accelerate and get in front of you. Or I will slow down and get behind you.

I also don't like those jerks who think that if they try to push me from behind I will go faster! Nunh uh - not going to happen. :p I can't go any faster than the idiot in front of me and making stupid faces at me and tailgating me won't make that guy in front of me go any faster!

And see those trees in my pickup bed? I am going slow for a reason! And yes, I am pulled over to the shoulder so YOU can pass me! Honking your horn at me doesn't help! I know I am going slow, stupid! Duh! You want a tree with no leaves? Didn't think so. Pass me. Be smart! It's legal to drive on the shoulder when you have that little red flag hanging off those long loads and going slow....read the drivers' manual! Oh can't read!

And thank you for putting your phone number on the side of your truck! Or the back panel. Makes it easy to call your company and report your sign language!

Have a good day! ;)

Why do you feel the need to share your music with the world?
 

Why do I need to "feel" the beat of your music while sitting at a red light? :eek: I don't want to feel your music in my chest! If I wanted to hear your music, I would get out of my car and sit in yours! Oh, you didn't hear what I said? Must be the DAMAGE to your eardrums from all that T H U M P I N G going on inside that old beat up vehicle you are driving ! :cool:

That's why Apple invented the I P O D, YOU DUMMY! I don't want to feel their music either.

I like you...more coffee to go with your cookies?

Why am I feeling "Road Rage"? Not me...When I read this thread from you guys!

No road rage from me Miss Taffy, remember I am the one who looses her car!

:p

Hey...I did not mention that!

(I hate it when people go off and loose they cars!) :D

I figured it was only a matter of time before YOU brought it up, so I thought I would just put it on the table! :D

SeamsLikeStitches-
Sorry about the loud country music-:D
I sing along with the radio -loud too LOL

At least it's not thumping rap with the nasty words LOL

Curious-
I look at the cars more than the guys - I must be weird.

Jo, turn up the music... All Jacked UP!
 

And I only put my mascara on at the RED lights! Mine don't thump... it don't bump... and you can't hear it if your windows are up! :You-Rock:

I sing loud, I sing proud! And I embarass my kids all the way to the WalMart parking lot!

I did just sell the "GhettoMobile" (minivan) and bought myself a "grown up" car! A Chrysler Sebring! so I can roll up the windows and no one knows I'm singing along with Shania and the Dixie Chicks or being a "RedNeck Woman" with a baby on my Hip! Then I took my 4 year old granddaughter into the grocery store with me to pick up a few things and she was in the cart singing "I'm all Jacked Up" at the meat counter... and a gentleman looked at me and smiled like he knew exactly what she was singing!

Cool !
my ride is a 84 Volvo wagon- turbo charged & inter cooled- my baby:D

But even if the windows are closed and it is cranked up the sound goes thru the doors -{speakers are in the doors}
oopsy- I do turn it down in the city and towns though
but on the freeway/highways UUUPPP it goes!

I was not planning on mentioning it!

(not!) :D

Now, that's music! :boy(music):

Cindy
 

And all the rest y'all i lost my car in a parking lot,a long time ago.
Probably a good thing didn't have a licence. Anyone seen a red
Wheelchair and a boombox oh shoot.Stich love your taste in music,

up D. in Mi Cindy want to go. Brad Pitt is coming he went to college right
here in Columbia Mo. I found him hiding out from the 4 kids,and
what's her name. Got stop alot Shelley got the poo poo's.

You always bring it up. :p

Na...not always!

(It is such a good story!)

I love stories! Tell us a story, Taffy!

*assuming cross-legged position at Taffy's feet*

Did she really lose a car! Was she in trouble??

You've heard the story, don't give me that. And Taffy doesn't know what she talking about. :p

it was an expensive story.

But.. but... great stories are like Shrek! They're always so entertaining over and over and over and over again!

Ya' fuddy duddy.

So, I go on a trip and leave my Big honking SUV in the parking garage in the same parking spot I always do. (for those of you who don't know me, I used to travel a LOT and my DH is a recently retired airline pilot so we left our car in the parking garage a lot.)

Off I go to I-don't-remember-where-now and when I return after 5 or 6 days, I go to retrieve said vehicle. It's about 9:30 PM. No vehicle. Our parking garage is only 3 stories. So I go up one story, no vehicle, I go down 2 stories, no vehicle. :(

Hmmmm, it's hot. I am very tired. And NOT IN A GOOD MOOD! Someone stole my truck. :mad:

I go back to the terminal and fetch the airport cop and of course, it's one I know. Hey Mike, my SUV is not where I left it a few days ago, got any idea where it might be? Hop in my squad car and let's go look, says Mike. So, we go cruising around the parking garage, and the outside parking facility and he calls the parking company and says, hey where's her car? :rolleyes: They have no idea, but they do remember me as I am a frequent parker. I have personalized plates on the SUV so they remember the vehicle.

Bring her over to the office and we'll figure it out. It's now been almost an hour. They run my parking tag number through the system and yep, I brought the car in when I said I did and nope, it's not been towed nor has it been checked out. Gee, wonder where your car is. :confused:

Hmmmm, as I am sitting in the office, I look up through the front window and what do I see? My SUV sitting in front of us. I ask the supervisor what's that? That looks like my SUV. He goes out and checks the tag on the windshield. :o

Comes back in and sure enough, it's mine. Well duh. Mike is sitting there with this funny look on his face wondering what the heck is going on and so am I.

Here's how it all went down. I parked in the same spot I always park in, an end spot. Evidently, the "new guy" thought I was just a little too much "on the line" and towed my vehicle to the lock up lot and forgot to enter it into the computer. :p

So a week later when I show up to claim my vehicle, no one knows where it is. It cost me the $45 for the parking plus another $90 for the towing. I tried to argue the towing charge, but since I "didn't have pictures" to prove I was "not over the line" I was SOL.

That's how I lost my vehicle in the airport parking lot.:D

That's my story and I'm sticking to it....:p

I love that story! What a moron! What do you think digital cameras are for?? Fer cryin' out loud, employ technology wherever possible.

But there is more to the story.... remember... they asked if you were SURE if you drove to the airport and didn't have someone DROP you off.

(that went over real big!)

Such a grand story! A keeper! Worth every dime!:D

Oh yeah, I forgot about that part. What would I do without my buddy Taffy to remind me of those tiny bits of information!

:p

And that question went over real big when I produced my parking stub. Hey dummies, what's this? Do they really think I just collect them cuz I like paying for other people's parked cars! NOT!

LOL! It could have been counterfeit!:D

Are you one of those charming drivers who make the expressways extra annoying?
 

Oh....I will bring the gallon of milk! Yum...milk and cookies!
