The Shopping Centre Carpark
Posted by drakk on 04/16/05 in On the Road
One of my most common causes of frustration leading to bitterness would have to be driving and in particular the other people on the road. I am the first to admit I am an aggressive driver but the idiots on the road just bring out the bitterness in me and i dream of being able to put them to a fate worse than death.
Take for example driving today in my local shopping centre there were 3 seperate times that i was nearly in an accident not of my own causing:
1/ The woman who decides to turn in front of me without giving way. Hello dear, you see me coming, i have right of way as i’m going straight ahead;
2/ The woman who at a t-junction with a give way sign looks to her right only when pulling out, never mind me coming from the left. I purposely stopped at the most 6 inches from her and i think she crapped her pants; and
3/The worst of the lot, the taxi driver who not looking reverses ten metres in reverse through a pedestrian crossing narrowing missing pedestrians and only stopping just in time at the sound of my horn sounding.
While i think its great complete idiots can get their licence thanks to equal opportunity and the like, it would be really great if perhaps they could drive rather than what is most likely the case finding their licence in the corn flakes. I’d be happier if the cornflakes could go back to putting toys in them instead as then the only people that might have problems are those cornflake buyers that don’t look before they eat.

I get to ‘christen’ this blog as well, yay! Here’s a beer bottle coming your way. I figured you’d prefer that to Champagne

Reading this story made me think, bitter and twisted? Nah! The world is full of idiots with driving licenses, except us, of course!

You are indeed a busy girl christening my blogs.
It became bitter-and-twisted.com because i liked the domain some years back and bought it despite never knowing what to do with it, so finally there is actually something on the domain!
