Got Flipped off by a Cobra Yesterday

During most traffic operations in areas where it's not bumper to bumper these rolling road blocks go unnoticed by most. But when the (insert one of the above fuktards here) is sitting first at a signal, and can't just blindly follow the car in front of them like a lemming, they actually have to pay attention. This is where the various ADD drivers listed fall on their faces and instead of holding up just themselves they hold up everyone behind them as well. In my little area we have some signals that are quite short during certain periods of the day and if the people in line aren't paying attention then it definitely limits the number of cars that can get through during that light cycle. When that happens to me it absolutely annoys the crap out of me and I AM known to let a finger fly. On the rare cases that I am the instigator not paying attention then I expect the horn and finger and try to get out of the way as quickly as possible. In fact I'm embarrassed for being a fuktard and holding everyone up for no reason other than I couldn't get my fecal-matter fully congealed. If I get the odd finger out of that then I wave my meek apology and try not to do it again. I don't blame the people I held up for being annoyed with me. The point is; if you're having an ADD moment at the light and hold everyone else up, don't blame them, they're not the ones being an idiot. Just accept it, move on, and try not to do it anymore.

err, so I'm guessing somebody along the way got you pissed, huh? Cheers, John AKA, tin-man
