so the game this weekend was fun, for only like the second half. the first half of the byu game pretty much blew chunks. it was horrendous. and it wasn't just a good defense on the side of UNM, byu had open looks, they dropped balls and the play calling was questionable. this is the worst half of football i've seen byu play all year. it is a true miracle that they won. We can thank the defense for that. except for the corners, they really need to more experienced players out there. anyways, driving back home i realized that i had inadvertantly classified drivers that just drive me nuts on the road. they are in no particular order. but here goes.
1- spacers. they stop at stop lights and leave about 2 carlengths in front of them. they won't get any closer to the cars in front of them, it's like their phobia.
2-possums. these guys will go slow, and when you try to pass them. they speed up. then when you finally pass them, they slow down again. these can also be classified as punks, jerks, a**holes (trying to be mormon pc here) and any other explative that won't get you speaking to a bishop.
3-cutters. these cut right in front on you when driving, no matter the space between you and the car. these are agressive drivers, lazy drivers. often i'm sure they are on some type of drugs. these guys like to take advantage of nice drivers and are quite good at the 3 finger salute.
4- turners. these guys turn without signalling, or they get in the turn lane when they don't need to be and will often keep going straight. they excel in the tease. these remind of many of the girls i have dated.
5-turtles. these like to get in the fast lane and drive slow. everyone but they know that if people that are faster than you are in the fast lane, and they come up behind you, you pull over to the middle "slower" lanes. but these do not. they often go 10 sometimes 15 miles below everyone else's speed. it would take an act of heaven or their off ramp to get them to move aside. turtles like to clog up the HOV lanes as well. turtles also are natural cutters and show signs of possum characteristics. turtles are the Satan's of the roads. they encompass all the evils of bad driving. outside of the next category. these also remind me of a few girls i've dated.
6- DUI. lets face it, if you are under the influence of anything, get off the road, that includes sleepers, pull over or get a room. drinking, get a designated driver. you've been drinking and you are already stupid. drugs or medication, this is beyond stupid. you don't deserve a license.
7- last and not least. texters. i classified this with cell phone use because they are using the same type of device and both need to be hauled off to jail. they did a study on the influence of driving and texting, and they rated on a dangerous scale comparable if not worse than someone under the influence.
while driving back there were about 4 of my 7 on the road. i know i need to be patience with others around me on the road. something i've got to work on. fortunately i got back home ok. unfornately some of these people are still on the road.
