Jesse doesn't like the way I drive in the city. I tend to ignore traffic laws that slow me down. I try to be careful so I don't hurt anyone and I also don't want to piss anyone off so they hurt me. Since I acknowledge that I'm a shitty driver, it's okay for me to bitch about others. Tonight I was stopped at a red light behind a cop (no, not Amanda). I could have been in the right lane to go around them but I figured they were going straight through the light so there was no point. Why did I figure they were going straight through the light? They didn't have their indicator on! So I was super pissed when they pulled into the intersection and waited for cars to pass so they could turn left. No wonder nobody else in the city uses their indicators! Jesse and I are probably the only ones who do use our indicators. Although the other day I noticed I haven't been using them as often...
A few minutes later I was stopped behind a big ass truck at a stop light. Here's the thing. If you are going to pull into an intersection while the light is still red, you might as well just go all the way through when the traffic is clear. It's not that bad, I do it all the time. This jackass I was stopped behind pulled into the middle of the intersection and didn't go when traffic was clear. Then because s/he was so far in the intersection s/he couldn't see when the light turned green and I had to honk my horn to get them to move.
Time to watch the Golden Girls! Sophia Petrillo for President!

I've never seen the word "indicator" used so many times! I usually refer to them as a "blinker" or "turn signal." How refreshing to see another term used! I shall incorporate this into every day conversation.
I have to admit I stole that word from my dear cousin, Seth. I too used to use "blinker" or "turn signal" but he showed me the light. hahahaaaaa
oh. and you are all about proper.
