So. Yesterday I’m sitting at a traffic light. This guy was sitting in his car to the left of me, waiting to turn left.
He’s all crouched up on his steering wheel, turning it left, right, left, as though he’s driving the Indy 500 or some such.
He looks over at me, sees me looking at him, quickly looks away.
I couldn’t help laughing.
I just wonder what I do at traffic lights that other people see that I’ve not noticed them seeing.
Hmmm.
I’ve seen the nose pickers, the makeup appliers, and even the dude shaving.
But I think yours ranks so far as the funniest.
Although sometimes I’m singing at the top of my lungs to the radio. I’m sure that’s probably good for a chuckle.
I actually had some guys catch me singing like that once… they motioned for me to roll down the window. I think I hit 10 shades of red that time. :o
I’ve seen people playing air guitar or air drums while sitting at the light. I’ve seen couples making out, and who knows what else, as their hands were out of view. The other morning I saw a guy using his electric shaver while driving.
People have probably caught me doing odd things at red lights, all in the interest of saving time. For example, to get my bills sent off I’ll hastily write out a check and seal it in the envelope, glancing up every few seconds to see if the light has changed yet. Sometimes I’ll fill out my return address and apply the stamps if there’s enough time.

I wasn’t picking! There was no pick!

There was no nasal penetration!
I’m always VERY cautious if I’m scratching my nose. I don’t want to end up in that Seinfeld universe.
I got off work one day, pissed off about some thing or another. I have a habit of talking to myself. A lot. I live alone and got over not having someone else to talk to… Anyway, I often rehash conversations from work, or plan out a tough conversation I’m going to have, while driving home. It helps me let go of my work woes, and switch gears when I get home so I don’t bring work home with me.
I’m sitting at a stoplight ranting and raving to myself, when I glanced over to the next lane. There’s a co-worker, who reports to me, laughing his ass off. Windows were up, so he mouths to me, “who are you talking to?” I laughed, rolled down the window and shouted, “MEEE!” I was busted and I knew it.
I saw a guy jerking off at a traffic light once. At first I thought he was just flipping his hand to music on his radio, but when I looked closer I saw his penis. Eeek! Then, he looked up and saw me watching. He wasn’t embarrassed though – he actually grinned at me and licked his lips… Eeew!
My mom’s boyfriend saw this happen once, and we should all TAKE HEED.
He was number 3 at a red light. Number one was reading a newspaper, something he had some practice at, as you will see. A car goes through the intersection, and the driver of number 2 at the light recognizes the people in the car going through the intersection.
BEEP, BEEP and a wave.
Number one at the light quickly folds his newspaper and STOMPS ON THE GAS.
Of course, he always waited for a horn to beep before taking off. It always worked before. He could just read in peace at every traffic light until someone behind him beeped.
So, asshole heads out into traffic and gets his ass all smashed up. Serves him right, but I feel bad for his victim.
I am one of those air-drummers. 
I see lots of hair brushers, shavers, make-up appliers, and sometimes, toothbrushers during my morning commute. I guess if you are driving to work at 5:00 in the morning, you don’t have much time to do all that stuff at home.
Once, at a traffic light, I looked over and saw someone who was familiar to me, but I wasn’t sure who he was. Then it dawned on me, it was my newspaper delivery man! I waved at him, and gave the cursory “How’s it going?” line. He looked at me and said “2805 Summit View Drive, right”?
To me, that was AWESOME! He knew who I was by my address. That impressed the hell out of me.
E3
And, now we ALL do!
I’ll be right over! 
Whoohoo!!! Party at enwright’s house! I’m bringing chips!
Unfortunatley there is no 2805 Summit View Drive in Atlanta on Mapquest but there is a Summit Avenue and a Summit Place Drive. Which is it Enright? I’ll bring the cold beer and pretzels as soon as he gives us proper directions.
Things my boyfriend does while sitting in the passenger sit at a red light:
Rubs his nipples and winks at the people in the next car.
Dances like a person who’s lost his mind and control of his arms.
Yells at cell-phone drivers to get off their phone.
All these things crack me up.
I’ve seen someone jerking off at a traffic light, also.
I’ve seen naked people driving cars.
I’ve seen people shaving, singing, air drumming, air guitar, eating, yelling, etc.
My brother used to drive a truck, and he saw people in cars giving oral sex, playing with each other, etc, all the time. Apparently, this is very common. :eek:
Wouldn’t that get a little…er…complicated for both the driver and the general population of rubberneckers? (no pun intended)
Way back when I was a teenybopper, we used to drive old beater cars. If we were stopped at a light so that a “friend” was directly in front of us we would play bumper tag to pass the time. We would inch up and bump them, then they would pull up a few inches, put it in reverse and slam into us, then we would bump them again, great fun
