Pip that stinks big time! I would have been so pissed if that happened to me, I probably would have made her cry. You should have kicked her car and been like, "ooops, I tripped." lol I hope you are feeling better tho!

My next rant,
I bought a softball glove last weekend and it was so stiff that i could barely catch with it. Why make them so hard and stiff (the ball glove) that it is virtually unusable for weeks? I oiled it twice and bought some hot glove and threw it in the oven and still its stiff. I dont know it just bothered me you buy it to trash it so that you can use it. haha.

Emergency sledgehammer? Wow and i thought my emergency 6 cell maglight would mess up someones day. haha. I like mine cause its bright enough to blind them and then you can hit them when they cant see. haha. I havent used it yet but im sure it would leave a mark. haha.

and that sucks about your glove. it sounds like when my bf buys a new hat and has to break it in forever so it finally gets comfortable.

Yea i dont understand that hats are the same way. You buy something and then have to mess with it and shape it before the damn thing fits right. I hate it but i guess everyone has there own idea of how they want it so i guess it makes sense but when it takes as long as it does it gets annoying. haha

oh man, speaking of hats, it's funny that you mentioned it. i just bought a hat like not even 2 weeks ago, and the damn thing gave me bruise and a blister right smack dab in the middle of my forehead. it hurt so bad, gave me a headache and all. had to keep wearing it tho as was prevuiosly stated for break in purposes to get proper look and fitament down. but it's good to go now tho! ugh.

Most drivers of any race/sex/religion/etc suck. Women drivers get the worst rap because soooo many are sooo bad. That being said, my wife is pretty good and my Mom is scary good. My Mom made a pass in my Mustang back in the day and came within 2 tenths of my best time. She has scared the heck out of some car salesmen through the years also. You want to really see her mad...watch a car salesman try to suggest she should be looking at the automatic plain model instead of the manual sport model.
Of course her first car was a 1970 Mustang Mach 1 and her first ticket was in that same car for doing a burnout in a parking lot

Fun thread!! Let's form a posse and go get these people NOW!!
My rant is: (and it's happening at every light here now in Tampa) as SOON as the light turns green, the car turning left jumps out in frot of the oncoming traffic so he/she doesn't have to wait. I keep waiting for a big ol' truck to run the red and SLAM into the left turn guy like in Office Space when Tom Smykowski backed out of his garage). 
(not nice, I know)
I also have a general loathing for minivans. They usually accelerate very slowly and often drive under the speed limit. grrrrrr

oh man!! it's the opposite around here where about 5 more cars go through a left turn on a RED light than are actually supposed to. they don't even gun it through a yellow, they just leisurely stroll through a freakin' RED LIGHT!!!!!
and it's ALWAYS minivans and suvs!!!
i hate them both SO MUCH!!!!

So you have that to look forward to!! You can often see it coming if you watch them. They're watching the light non-stop.

People who think replying to a public thread on a public forum entitles them to some sort of privacy between them and the OP. (That's why Private Messages exist on most forums)

Oh, and bump. Official rant thread = good

BTW: My Rant
What is it with people who drive small cars (like our Fit's) who can't seem to make a turn and stay within their lane?!? I sat behind a driver the other day waiting to make a right turn into a four lane road (2 each way w/ a median!!) who waited for BOTH lanes to clear because they could NOT execute a ninety degree turn into the curb lane!!! They actually pulled, out crossed into the far lane and then edged back into the curb lane! '07 VBP Sport 5MT w/minor appearance & comfort mods!!

Hey fittmann you know you can put your car description in your signature right? It would be easier then typing it everytime. On your user cp page there is a button you can click for your signature, put in whatever you want and then i think you click accept. I cant remember off hand. PM me and i can walk you through it if you need help. Just a helpful observation

Dumb ass bitches on their phones who don't have that skill to drive and talk!!!!
in example:
When I lived in Palmdale I was on a red light. I looked over cause there was a NICE ass Yamaha R1 coming to the light ass well (btw, there was traffic) and all of a sudden this bitch pulls out of the mall in her Denali talking on the cell phone as well as her dumb blondie friend without looking if someone is coming, then BAM she hit's the guy in the R1 and he flies off his bike as his beautiful R1 flips onto another car. AND GUESS WHAT? Bitch was still talking on the cellphone, neither her nor her friend realized they just hit someone. Green light and they keep going and guy in R1 gets up like WTF? and finally starts his tore up bike and chases after her. Good thing there was a cop on the other block and pulled her over when he saw guy chasing her. I'm sure she got a nice hit and run charge which would make me feel better.
If you're gonna talk on the phone, while driving, in traffic have a hands free device people.
