Things that really PISS ME OFF

This isn't just another 'Grind my Gears' segment; this one really pisses me off. Last night I was driving home and it was raining buckets. Seriously, I couldn't see my lines and I kept hitting standing water and sliding around. One might think that in weather like this, you might drive CAUTIOUSLY. Apparently not. I might be a little paranoid because of the car I'm driving and it not having the greatest tires, but when it is precipitating, I drive SLOWLY. It really pisses me off when people fly around me splashing rain or snow onto my windshield making it difficult for me to see. Just because you have a big truck or 4-wheel drive does not mean you don't need to drive cautiously, that 4-wheel drive isn't going to save you when you're rolling down a hill. Even more annoying are the people who are driving small cars who just whip around you without a care in the world. You are in a tiny car, what is going to save you from sliding off the road? NOTHING. As far as I'm concerned, God is doing us no favors when people who drive like this don't die in a fiery crash. They make it perilous for the rest of us who do try to drive carefully and I'm tired of wondering how much damage is going to be done to my car if I do get into a wreck because some people are assholes. If I had a gun, I would be tempted to shoot most of these people, but between them and the losers at Wal-Mart, I'd be spending a lot of money on bullets....maybe I could get a discount for doing a service to the community...

Perhaps you could find some at Sam's Club. Buy in bulk! :)

I'm going to admit that I'm not exactly the most cautious driver, but if it's sprinkling or barely raining, I get mad at people driving like it's a monsoon. But I don't drive like a bat out of hell when it's pouring buckets.

What you really need is THE VAPORIZOR!! But Horatio Caine took it off the streets. :(
