I am shaking with rage right now and I just need to get this out of my system. I was driving home on TV highway today, and I had tweezers in my right hand, using them to scratch at an itchy spot under a callus on my left hand. My left hand was on the steering wheel (at 6 o'clock), and I was watching the road. All of a sudden, the driver next to me lays on his horn and starts making WTF gestures at me. Had I cut him off? No, I had definitely stayed in my lane. Was I driving to slow or too fast? No, traffic was pretty thick. I was with the flow. At the next light, I pulled alongside him and made a WTF gesture back at him. He angrily mimed texting, and then sped out in front of me when the light changed. When we got to the next red light, I changed lanes to be right beside him. I rolled down my window and gestured for him to do the same, but he just shook his head. He didn't make eye contact. I wanted to tell him to CALM DOWN. I was scratching an itch. My phone was in my purse. My eyes were on the road. And what was more dangerous in this situation? My presumed texting or his vigilante road rage? The fact that he wouldn't roll down his window and hear me just pisses me off so much. Sure, you can lay on your horn and swerve your car at me and make angry gestures when you get my attention, but you won't hear my response? You won't entertain the possibility that you're falsely accusing me of being reckless when you're actually the one creating a hazard? ARGH. Fuck you, road rage guy. I hate you. Thanks for ruining a fine mood. I hope the local E. Coli outbreak finds its way to your immune system and you have to spend the next week on the toilet thinking about what bad choices you've made.
