What is this World Coming to?
Mean people suck, but let’s face it, they not only roam the earth in search of their next victim but they are in abundance. When was the last time someone let you into traffic on a crowded, overpopulated street? Who cares that your car has no A/C and its 150 degrees in the shade and you were forced to cut off that last car just to get where you are now? Did they not see your face about to explode with heat and rage as you slowly inched your way closer and closer into traffic so that you might overtake the next car? Thus, earning your spot on the road? No, they don’t see you sitting there because they aren’t looking at you. They are giving you the “I know you’re looking at me because I wont let you in but I am too embarrassed to look your way” look. We all know that look I am sure. Aside from traffic, what about when you run into the grocery store to buy a gallon of ice cream (before Survivor starts and only one check out is open) and a woman with the fullest grocery cart is in front of you? No wait! She has two carts! Do you think she will let you go before her with your one urgent item so you can get home and see if they voted off that pesky Tom yet? Heck no. So at this point do you say, “Excuse me, I really just have this ONE item, do you mind?” She looks at you as if you are the most pathetic creature (yes you do have your slippers on but you ran out without thinking about your footwear) she has ever seen. Then, she looks at your ONE item and her brain is computing…it’s not aspirin for a sick child, it’s not Imodium for diarrhea, it’s not tampons for “that time of the month emergency”…its freakin’ ice cream! “No,” she says “I’m sorry but I am in a rush too.” Ok that is just plain mean. Would it have killed her to let you quickly check out and be on your way? Meanwhile she stocks up on Karma points? Yeah guess again, slipper girl.

you its funny, you have to be careful what you wish for! in portland, OR people are SOOOO nice that they will stop at a green light to let you in. So traffic there is just as bad because the dunderheads in front of you either stop at a green light, or an accident of niceness has just occurred (again)
