That's great! I'm bummed because I can't do this. I'm on a motorcycle and leaving someone pissed off behind you isn't a good idea. If I had a Jeep I totally would.

Over the years I've noticed these same people are the most likely to have their left hand outside their window caressing the breeze much as dog's in cars with their head in the breeze enjoy. Confirmation of their incompetence is often evident from dings, crunched fenders or bent bumpers.

Why aren't we reminding people how to drive correctly in public service commercials?

People who think they can tell you how to run your life. I hate that so badly.

Dixie doesn't count. In PA German areas the worst insult is to be called a "heeva haava". In their European villages an idiot would be tried at a series of tasks a child could accomplish. If they still screwed up the simplest directions they became the heeva haava. This consisted of being "the fluffer" for breeding stallions.
Any sign of geekiness would immediately eliminate you.

It does not pay to be stupid. At least not that much.

I know of one stupid person who is a very prominent figure and makes a base salary of 300K a year. Then we add in all the other money he receives to sway back and forth on issues.

He shall remain nameless.
