    Why is it so hard to understand how to drive through an intersection with flashing lights? People just go clueless when they approach these things....

    Because Lanny Griffith is no longer doing traffic on the radio.

    "Flashing lights at 1960 & 249. Treat it as a 4 way stop. HUH!!"

    And why oh why do the ladies at work insist on keeping (and using) a nasty floral spray in our one bathroom. Okay, so you took a dump. The only thing that can drawn attention to that and make it worse, is to use a toxic chemical plant accident's worth of nauseating spray to draw attention to your biological function and, in the process, make a whole new unearthly and heinous smell combination.

    People are clueless on what to do at 4-way stops.

    People are clueless on what to do when they are turning left.

    People are clueless on where to go when driving in a parking lot.

    People are clueless when driving.

    Merely touching your "Johnny" should be reason to wash your hands.

    I have my priorities in order so I wash my hands before I take a leak.

    People are stupid, budski. Any deviation away from the 'script' will result in pandemonium. The sooner you accept this truth, the easier it will be to deal with them.

    Near my house, there are 4 stop signs at this one street that starts at Clay and ends in a neighborhood. As you turn from Clay onto it in the direction of the neighborhood, you'll have to stop at 2 four-way stops. Everyone is cool at these two intersections. What happens next is they treat the next 2 stop signs like 4-way stops, and they don't give the crossing streets at these last 2 stops the right of way. GET IT THROUGH YOUR THICK SKULLS, people: a stop for you means WAIT for the cross traffic... it's not your turn, idiot.

    I despise people who honk at me because I make a complete stop. I cross the intersection driving slowly because they're in a hurry.

    Also, I hate it when I get to a 4-way stop and there was someone already there waiting for me to make a stop, and then I stop, and then they wave for me to go... like they're being nice, or some crap. I sit there and pretend I don't see them to see if they go, even when I'm in a hurry. You don't tell me what to do. Learn the right of way. Dummy. Read the holy book of Texas Driving. :eek:

    Bad analogy is bad.

    :grin: I kid, man. There's some truth in your reason, but not close. But... hey, do ANTS have to take a test to be given a license to walk on a trail? ;)

    the more likely scenario is you should wash your hands BEFORE touching your "johnny", your hands are much dirtier than your "johnny"

    ok how about...a public servant makes a taco bell joke, see chaos ensue at LULAC...better? :grin:

    Your mind doesn't stray outside of literal analogies, does it? Yeah those animals they call sheep haven't taken that test either so there goes that analogy.
