Could my day get any SUCKIER??? I think not!!
Ok, on the way to work, as I was getting on 95, there was a backup on the ramp. Turns out there was an accident right after the point where the ramp feeds into I-95.

I'm the next to last car waiting on the ramp and the dingbat idiot driver who probably got her driver's license from 'dumbass drivers-ed' decides she wants to back up her car off the ramp to get out of this mess. Mind you, I have another car right behind me so this woman that would probably make George W. Bush look like a fucking genius tries to get on the side of the ramp and squeeze her damn oversized Lincoln passed the cars behind her and mind you, she was this close to scraping the sides of me. And she's doing this while she's on the cell phone chatting.

Of course the ramp has a blind turn getting on to it and some car almost barreled in to her while she was backing up. The dumbass has a kid in the backseat - what a great way to bugger that kid's body up for life by doing something dumbass like that. Irony would have it that 5 minutes later the accident was cleared away and I was cruising along 95 free as a bird while if this woman was heading on 95 south, she probably ended up taking another 20 minutes to get on the next exit since the road leading to it has about 10 redlights that are untimed, so you pretty much have to wait at each one.

And then to make matters worse I get into work and my hard drive is beyond dead.

So seriously - can someone give me some good news?

3. I love how the police never notice drivers like this
But they're magically always there to pull people over for going 15 miles above the speed limit.

Meanwhile some asshat is literally putting lives in jeopardy and the cops are too busy writing speeding tickets

:grr:

5. Sure, your day could've been a lot worse...
you _almost_ got in an accident. If that "almost" weren't in that sentence...

Point being, be glad of what you've got.
