I would like to take this moment to ask a simple question: Rubber necking?!? WHY?!?

Today I made an insanely long car ride that left me slightly claustrophobic and extremely pissed, and as I neared the end of my journey I was caught in the Queen High b***h of all traffic jams. I sat in this test of wills for nearly two hours, inching my way along the asphault, passing little white line after little white line until I finally came to the source of all my frustration ... A speeder.

Yes folks, a ******** speeder had been pulled over by a police man and was recieving a ticket! I could not believe it myself. Someone had the audacity to go a mile or two over the posted limit and by some random twist of cruel fate, was caught! Holy ******** cow! Call the pope! The sky is falling! The world is ending! We are all going to die!

Now, for all those out there who are a bit slow in the grey matter, let me just say that the above statement is sarcastic. However, if you had been in this jam and taken note of the extreme interest of the passing motorists in this drull occurance one would think my words were true. I swear, these people thought that the plight of the speeder was the most fascinating ******** thing since sliced bread. One would think they would have video taped the s**t if they could have, they were THAT intent on what was going on.

Well, sufficed to say, I was livid. As soon as I noticed what was the cause of all my misery, I let loose. I rolled down all my windows and just started screaming at every car I was finally able to pass until I was damn near hoarse. Though, looking back, my retaliation to this rediculous display of interest did bring me an extreme amount of amusment, so all was not lost. xd
