Idjits…
They live, breathe and worst of all, BREED…
Idjit 1- The asshole in the Mercedes that almost hit me yesterday, because he didn’t understand simple physics! Ice on street = NO grip, even if you ARE in a Mercedes. You cannot run up to the light at full speed and think you’re gonna stop and when you realize you aren’t, aiming at ME on the sidewalk is NOT the way to make friends… And it’s a good thing you didn’t get out of your car after my coffee went all over your windshield and hood after I had to jump out of your @$#%@ way, because I’ll guarantee I was NOT in good mood at that point…
Idjit 2- Maybe your little lowered rice rocket with the fart muffler is fast, but you SHOULD have known better than to try to bulldoze that snow (frozen over) just so you could get in the parking space… And yes, I laughed when you crumpled/splintered all that aero package you ‘had’ tacked on the front of your car…
The least you could have done was haul that junk off rather than leave it laying in the parking space/snowbank…
Idjit 3- The woman in the ballet style shoes that tried to cut across the snow rather than walking 15 feet to the cleared sidewalk…
We gave you a 1.0 for execution, a 2.1 for the landing cause you sure as hell DIDN’T stick it (unless you count landing flat on your ass in the puddle), but we gave you an 8.0 for invective… At least three languages, and words even all three of us retired sailors didn’t know…
And a bonus idjit… At the grocery store, I’m standing in line for my BP meds, and I see a lady leave her cart to walk down the aisle to look for something… Bonus idjit decides to ‘surf’ through the lady’s cart, and takes out a package of meat. Lets just say it was a GOOD thing a store manager came around the end of the aisle about the time the 1st lady got back to her cart…
As far as the ‘weather’??? Well I agree with the ‘Blue Bird of Happiness’…
Not only do they live, breathe, and breed, you forgot the worst thing about idjits:
THEY CAN VOTE!!!!
Sometimes it’s not worth gnawing off the leather restraints to get out of bed in the morning…
Err, ahh, ummm. With a day that starts like that, it has to get better, right? Right…? 😉
You have such interesting days.
Yep, certainly a lot of critters out there who fail to understand the basics of ice, melted ice and friction . . .
Spring’s comin’!! OOOOOOmmmmmmm . . . . OOOOOOmmmmmmm . . .
Ouch. Glad you’re okay and all you lost was your coffee. The Mercedes driver REALLY doesn’t know how lucky his is that he stayed in car.
Sounds like you should have just chugged the BP pill bottle right in front of the cashier.
WN- Yeah, sigh…
xS3- The ONLY good thing was it was Friday…
Stephen- I’d MUCH prefer NOT to have them…
Bill- Yep… SOON please…
MC- Yeah, me too. Otherwise I’d have been calling for bail money…
Gerry- That thought DID occur… sigh
They’re not accustomed to snow. Most of them planned on global warming to consume the planet. oooooops.
In the Little Saigon district of Orange County, California, we see those driving patterns every day without snow to blame…sort of like in Big Saigon, which is now Ho Chi Minh City, and Hanoi, where we used to kill those people for a living.
You’re having more fun than humans should be allowed to have … or something. But you’re right: they’re everywhere!
On the bright side, it gives you blog fodder.
The vignette about picking up your BP medication is priceless.
I’m glad you didn’t get run over.
I’m sort of horrified that the guy in the Mercedes almost plowed you down (pre-coffee no less) – and didn’t get out of his car to see if you were okay. What is wrong with people?
LL- Point!!!
Rev- Yeah, but I don’t WANT to have this kind of ‘fun’…
WSF- Yeah, that it does…
MJ- You and me both!
Mrs. C- I didn’t go down, but I guarantee I jumped about 5 feet!!! 🙂 They’re idjits…
When were you in my neck of the woods to run into those same folks I ran into the last few days. I’m just real proud that you didn’t shove your (empty) coffee cup up Mr. Mercedes’ ass. 😉
Snigs- If he’d gotten out, I’d probably be needing bail money… Just sayin…
I am glad to hear you are ok after the close encounter of the Mercedes kind. If he had got out I would chip in for your bail money.
