People will always drive like idiots. I personally have a fix. It's called a CHL (Concealed Handgun License) and a Five-seveN. Flash it to the average idiot and they learn manners quick. Just have to really think before pulling something like that out because in Houston there is a good chance the other person will pull one out too.

I drive slow for the most part and use my signals but people still pester me. Best to shrug it off and live to fight another day. Gotta learn to pick your battles.

@Hix: Wow, that's kind of scary.

Reading your post there made me think of an oldie song, but a goodie: Offspring "Bad Habit".

Don't give me no crap
'Cause the slightest thing and I just might snap.

When I go driving I stay in my lane.
But getting cut off makes me insane.
I open the glove box.
Reach inside.
Gonna wreck this f*cker's ride.

I guess I got a bad habit
Of blowin' away.
Yeah I got a bad habit
And it ain't goin' away.

Well they say the road's a dangerous place.
If you flip me off I'll get in your face.
You drive on my ___,
Your foot's on the gas
And your next breath is your last.


Drivers are rude
Such attitudes.
But when I show my piece
Complaints cease
.
Something's odd
I feel like I'm God
The bold parts are my favorite parts of the song and hearing this makes me laugh whenever I'm driving.

I know what you're thinking. "Did he fire six rpms or only five?" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a 158hp xB, the most powerful Scion in the world, and would blow your gaskets clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do you, punk?!

It's like QT said.
Your going in my book. Now a lot of people say they have a book. But I realy have one and your going in it, only your going under chicken ship.

So you can get yourself a book, start taking down license plates, hack the dmv, get your list of addresses, and wait for the next rainstorm. Or you can burn one listen to some bob any love your woman. You'll sleep alot better after the later. As for those of you who can't sleep anyway, thanks for cleaning out the genpool.

I'm not drag racing, thats just how people drive in Phoenix.
