Ladies and Gentlemen,
During your daily drive to work or school, how long does it take you to get from your home to your place of businesss? My route (without traffic) should take 22 minutes one way. However, it usually takes about an hour for me these days due to the nasty traffic and construction conditions. What about you? Are you in the same predicament? How do you keep yourself from going mad with rage? I have satellite radio, but it doesn't do much for me. Do you sometimes feel like blowing stuff up or something when you are just sitting there in the stagnant malaise of gridlock? Argh!!!!!!!!! Tell us some traffic stories!!!!!!!!! |

Damn, you have it made in the shade on some of this.
I can't take my eyes off the road/stagnation, so I have to just sit there. I do have my Nintendo DS, and that helps sometimes when I am just stuck there. 3 hours? Damn! I spent about 1 hour and a half in my car each day, and around 2 on the bad ones. |

I don't know what it is, but I keep thinking of that guy in "Falling Down" when he takes the LAW to the construction site.
Not that I advocate that type of violence, but it might be somewhat satisfying to see random explosions while I am just sitting there. |

I often daydream about having a bulldozer (more along the lines of an earthquake) and taking out tourists and hood rats in my commute

10-15 minutes, I'm pretty lucky, I live like 3 minutes from the freeway, so once I'm on, I'm flyin.
I'm sure that some day I'll get out of my car and beat someone to death with my tire iron though. When I'm stuck in traffic or stuck behind a slow driver, a weaving driver, a I'm not sure were to turn driver, I am going ape shit and using language that I would never use in public. I'm a super nice guy, but when I'm driving it's like day and night, I'm like two people. What I really love is downtown 2:00am, no traffic, it's nice and cool, just cruising with my friends. |
