I was particularly aggravated this morning as I was driving to work. I take back roads to avoid Dallas city traffic which means I hit red lights... It takes 1/4 of the time, so no big deal! The most irritating thing that happens while I am driving is when careless drivers do NOT use their BLINKER! Ahh! Does this make anyone else want to spray their pepper spray into the person's car? Ok dramatic, sure, and I obviously would never do that but it does send me through the roof. I have to remind myself of what Christ would do...How hard is it to use your PINKIE and push the blinker, that isn't even out of reach, down or up? I was cut off several times this morning and almost wrecked. I am very good about road rage, 99.5% calm, until this happens. Sometimes it happens so quickly that honking is pointless and then you're sitting next to the person through each light. Maybe I will just roll my window down, while sitting next to them, and ask if it works or not? Or maybe I will carry a poster size sign that reads: USE YOUR BLINKER and I'll hold it up after I honk and they give the look like "what are you honking for jerk?!" To me it's like walking through the mall, cutting someone off and walking 1 foot in front of them without saying "excuse me". It's just not nice. (you're thinking "neither is spraying pepper spray into their car psycho") I know... Ok, whew, I feel better. I guess I am just the type of person that wants to get out and go apologize after accidentally doing something on the road. I love being friendly and using manners :). With all of that said, when you get in your car today think about this and USE. YOUR. BLINKER. :)
Thanks, from all of us careful and considerate citizens.

I second this post. Although I am shocked to see that you have a little bit of road rage in you : )
