And this is every day, about 4 to 5 times a day. I'm not exaggerating, it really is. I'm generally a very patient, calm person but the way they drive here gets me, and it gets me very upset. I get upset because there's nothing I can do about it. I have no driving patience for these folks here. I'm getting mad posting about it.


Live in Michigan for a month and you'll want to move back to CT. They drive slow every day and all over, not just in the passing lane. And then when they merge into traffic, getting on the freeway, they do about 40 mph going onto the freeway while most folks (on the freeway) are doing about 60... still 10 mph below the speed limit. If Toyota had a tech center in MN. I'd move back home. It's that bad, and it's so frustrating. I'm really getting tired of this broke, non-driving state. I really am.

I really do not experience what you do on the roads at all. Everywhere I go, people are going 10 over, unless it is rush hour stop n go traffic. I get ticked off when I'm going 80 or 85 in the fast lane and people are getting right up on my tail and flashing their lights. Sorry folks, you don't need to go more than 15 over and I'm not getting behind someone going 70 when I'm going 85.

I hate reality tv, it's so dumb (to me), and I think that there's entirely too much of it on tv. Thank God for cable.

What's in bold is freaking hilarious!

As far as reality shows go, I must defend at least some of them. That's because I'm already psyched for Survivor tonight, and I love The Amazing Race. There's a big difference between reality shows like them and Keeping Up With the Kardashians.

I agree with the above POSTS (for preciousjenni), except that I find that the reality TV on cable is the worst. The network shows aren't nearly as bad. I think of Survivor and the Amazing Race more as game shows than reality shows, honestly.

I don't think it's that the parents are "taking the trouble" to take their kid there - more like that's where they want to eat and they're stuck dragging the kid along.

I concur.

Y'all are really angry about a lot of stuff!
