I’m really tired of being honked at for being a careful driver. Nearly every day when I leave work, some asshole thinks it’s a good idea to honk at me and I’m sick of it. See, I have to make this impossible left hand turn upon leaving the parking lot. The turn actually leads directly onto the highway I take to go home. There are many things that go wrong here, but the number one part that sucks is that there is no green arrow for people trying to make the left onto the highway. At rush hour, this basically means you can’t move until the light just about switches off of yellow and then to red. Allow me to show you what I’m talking about, and please excuse this crude drawing that I did with my mouse.

Okay, I’m the red arrow trying to make the turn. What happens is that thanks to the green arrows, I can’t see when the blue arrows are coming. Sometimes there might be a moment or two when I could potentially make the turn, but it is a tough risk because like I said, you can’t see the blue arrows. This is mostly due in part to all 500 SUV’s that are making their left hand turn (the green arrows), that are so big you can’t see around them. Anyway, whenever there is that gap between the blue arrows is when I get honked at. For the love of god, stop honking at me!

Yesterday I’m waiting for my turn to go, when the douche bag behinds me starts to honk like a maniac. First off, we’re coming out of the same parking lot, so chances are whoever is honking at me works in my building. I didn’t recognize this guy; he was an older Asian man in a suit. And he’s honking, and then he’s holding his head down in his hand and shaking his head as if he’s all mad at me. I just shrug my shoulders and put my hand up and kind of give him a weird face. Then he is making worse faces. I don’t know if his windows were down, but I yelled “HEY DOUCHE! I CAN’T SEE ANYTHING.” Finally when the light turns yellow I make the turn.

Seriously, what gives? As if I really like sitting there and not moving. As if I don’t want to get home at a decent time as well. The best part is we turn onto the highway, which is usually all backed up anyway. So no one is going anywhere, fast.

These stupid morons are the reasons there is traffic to begin with. They make all their dumb stupid moves and have zero patience for anything, and end up getting into stupid accidents, which somehow cause both sides of the highway jam up.

The secret is that everyone wants to make it to their destination. Stop being an inconsiderate prick and think about the whole. The universe doesn’t revolve around you and what time you get home for dinner. So suck it up, and drive like a normal human being, douche bags. Stop. Just stop.

You know what? I dedicate this post to myself.
