So as I'm pulling out of a parking lot today |
|
Some huge SUV comes whipping behind my preventing me from pulling out. He was doing like 50k in the parking lot...I was thinking, "What kinda fucking assbag does 50km in a parking lot" Then I saw it had a Florida license plate....
You orange hordin'bastards...you're all like that aren't you!?

I ride a scooter amongst all those assbags, which means I spend a good portion of every day almost getting killed. Trust me, Floridians are for the most part all self-centered, AOL link-clicking retards.

Large trucks or Suv's pull up in the left lane next to you as you are trying to make a right turn. they just totally block your view of the ongoing traffic so that you can't make your damn turn.

We get that constantly, although once I was blocked by a large 4X crewcab...who immediately backed up a couple feet, since he is a neighbor who is thoughtful like that! :thumbsup: You can shadow them, if they are turning the same way you are, if someone gets hit, it will be them first.

I want to toss a small grenade underneath those vehicles. And there's NO NEED for them to do that, because they can see over my wimpy little Subaru, but I can't see around, over, or through them, at least if they have those dark tinted windows.
Aaarrrrghhh!

4. Oh, heck...they ALL drive like that in Florida... |
|
Yet ANOTHER reason why that promo campaign the state tourism division did a few years ago was never truer..."This is Florida; the rules are different here!" (Produced pre-Katherine Harris/hanging chad, at that!) :eyes:
BTW, 50 km/h is around 35 mph, isn't it? Dang, he WAS flying in a parking lot!:eyes:
B-)

6. What you might think of as a "Floridian" isn't necessarily......... |
|
a Floridian. I read somewhere that less than 25% of the Florida population over age 25 was actually born there. Most of the adults are actually from places like Michigan, New York, Cuba or Mexico. Hell, even the so-called governor is from Texas.

of America. Bush sets the tone, freepers just follow. Be nice, be kind, they're just moranic lemmings.
Yesterday I got out of the way of a Silver Navigator so he could do 35mph in a school zone. He had a disabled tag hanging from the mirror. I guess he wants to spead the joy.

and I drive like an old lady.
I hate when people speed in a parking lot, it's the stupidist place to speed. Haven't these people figured out by now that the most likely place for stray, random pedestrians to be is a parking lot? And think about little kids who are not paying attention. When they speed through parking lots they greatly increase the chances of killing someone. But I guess they don't care about that.

14. Floridians can't drive in the mountains |
|
I used to get stuck behind them in the NC mountains. The steep hills and curves freak them bastids out and they are scared to get too close to the side.
