• Raging against the machine

  What up peeps? I got a speeding ticket at 2:30 in the morning the other day for going 38 in a 25. The ticket set me back about 130. Oh yeah it was in a construction zone so it was doubled. Yeah I’m pretty sure that there wasn’t anybody working on the road at 2:30 so I’m sure the man was just trying to keep me down. That’s why I don’t like the police. I understand I was speeding and I’m fine with paying that. I don’t think that it should have been doubled because of construction. You couldn’t give me a warning and tell me to slow down? Prick.  In the words of N.W.A. “Fuck the Police”. I hate how people in position of power misuse it. I think this guy was………he seemed racist. Sticking it to whitey. So I was dropping a book off at the library and as I was driving off with my window down this old lady starts wagging her finger at me and yelling about having no respect…………..so I did the respectable thing and flipped her off. Stupid old bitty. West west yo.

• Bad drivers…

  Nothing bothers me quite like the dumb masses of people who simply do not know how to drive.  I’m sure this topic will come up often on this site.  I’ve got to start somewhere, I guess.  I really really really really hate all the people out there who think they have to go 10 mph UNDER the speed limit when they see a police officer.  I mean, what are they thinking?  Do they think the cop is going to pull them over for going the speed limit, so they just have to go under it?  This actually happened the other day on my way home from work.  First of all, I was following a cop around a cloverleaf onto the highway, and he decides he is going to merge on going 55 mph, which is 10 mph under the limit.  This is another pet peeve of mine which I’m sure I will discuss at a later time.  Back to the point, I go around the cop, set my cruise control for 70, and proceed.  The cop gets in the next lane, but stays close, actually passing me and then falling behind, over and over again.  This also annoys me.  For an officer of the law, he sure does not know how to drive properly.  Anyway, as we proceed down the highway, any one we come within close proximity to does what I mentioned before:  they immediately slam on their brakes and slow down to 60 or 55.  WHY!?!?!?!   I’m sure even the most DB cops have better things to do than pull over someone for going 5 over.  This is obvious because I made it home ticketless.  So why feel the need to go UNDER the speed limit?  I guess all I can do is complain, although it will not get anything done.

  Thank you.  Good night, and good evening.
