Justifiable Homicide Tuesday... Random

 

No one incident really "got" to me this week but there are always the random annoyances.


Drivers [they could be included weekly] learn how to drive. You live in New England, get used to the snow. [8 inches Sunday and snowing again today]

What's with tailgating. The entire highway is open and you have to ride my ass.. [clarification for moooog35 (never know how many o's to put).] The truck tailgating was so close I couldn't see  the headlights, the roads were clear and dry and barely any other cars on the road. I was going plenty fast ;)

My husband is away on business...  you can't call when you get to your location safely.

The conditioin of my youngest daughters bedroom......

Grocery shopping with the youngest daughter.

Political tv ads, especially ones that just bash a candidate. [major elections in Massachusetts today]


That's it....but I reserve the right to add to the list as needed.

They're on your ass because, seriously, it's 8 inches of snow. Drive, woman. DRIVE!!

Yeah..that's me behind you. Think you could pick up the pace a bit?

Point of calrification. Which lane where you in when thr truck was tailgating?

Also, I tend to feel the same way bout snow on the ground.

Oh yes, CNN is all over you like white on rice today with that special election. I'm not envious. And at least you would expect that most New Englanders would know how to drive in snow...2 inches in Kentucky? The whole state shuts down. But I do hate a tailgater...although if you get rear-ended, it's their fault. Just sayin in case you needed a new back bumper.

Justifiable Homicide Tuesdays...you are so funny. I only flipped off two drivers this week. You are right, "Why when they have the entire road do they have to tailgate...?"
Now I have to drive to the dentist!

I am so with you on the political tv adds, those drive me crazy, how about just letting us know how you stand on the issues and we make up our mind on who to vote for...

The political ads drive me NUTS, but I'm so curious to see how the election turns out back there! I feel like I have a pony in the race even though I don't live there and can't vote for Mass. :)

Whenever someone is behaving like an a-hole, it can be linked to some need to control. Tailgaters blow. I like to tap my brakes for them.

Your news coverage is almost over! Will be done tonight. By the way, saw Cayman Islands had an earthquake - doesn't look too bad, but I vote we go down there and help out. And by help out I mean drink vodka on the beach. Haiti scares me though.

I hate tailgaters. I really just want to slam on my brakes but I don't want to risk my children's well being if the tailgating car hits me.

Cathy said...

I had some jerk tailgating me today too...only to finally get in front of me and then turn down a side road?! WTF dude?

Stacy (the Random Cool Chick) said...

I am SO with you on all of those...idiot drivers, hubby is never at his desk nor does he check his voice mail regularly, so why do I need to call when I'm somewhere safe because he'll never really know until he gets home...the condition of PN's bedroom and grocery shopping with her...bashing political ads.

AMEN! :)

Concord Carpenter said...

I too am tired of the political tv ads that bash Brown.

Nap Warden said...

Hate tailgaters, and political ads:P

I love tapping the brakes when the tailgater is trying to ride in my rear seat... Nothing like seeing the fear!! But then I live in the Middle East and tailgaters are TAILGATERS. Like these people will happily push your car along with theirs...

Barefoot Dreamer said...

leave it to TQ to clarify = hahahahaa.

it snows - get used to it, it is no different then the last time or the time before or the last 20 years before that.

Monique-aka-Surferwife23 said...

While we don't have snow we have had a lot of rain and some drivers are serious A-Holes. I feel ya.

Julie said...

Ahahahaha, I love the idea of Justifiable Homicide Tuesdays!!!!!

Great blog, I'll be back for more!

I was always in trouble for the mess in my room.
