Are you fucking kidding me?

If you don't have a stop sign, don't fucking stop. I'm the car at the stop sign, waiting for this car to go. He looks at me as if I was at the stop sign first. I was, but I'm also the only car with a stop sign and there is a cop car coming from the other direction from you. Just imagine my facial expression and cursing for him to fucking go already. It's called "right of way" you have it, I don't. Fuck man, 30 minutes after I wake up. Really???

RCN - good job, sorta

RCN actually came through. 3 brand new set top boxes. Only took 7 months & me bitching at the building rep. in front of our building while they were showing off the new tivo.

Was going to get the new tivo, but there was a recall the next day since a button wasn't working. good job testing those things guys.

On driving

If you're the first car at a traffic light, you're job is an important one, PAY THE FUCK ATTENTION TO IT TURNING GREEN. don't be the asshole that causes the honking and the traffic. You're the key to the whole thing. The 2nd person and so on should also be paying attention. If anyone is going to honk, you should be the first fucking person doing so. And this is very very important when you're in a turn lane. Seriously, I hate getting stuck cause the first motherfucker took forever to turn. Either cause they weren't paying attention or cause they don't know how to get off the starting line fast enough. This is a goddamn race against the red light.
