… _Dude._ Nice. I think “ass mint” is my favorite, although “Grandstanding pigfucker” rolls beautifully off the tongue.

I’m going to HAVE to figure out a way to work “grandstanding pigfucker” into a conversation at work tonight.

For that phrase alone I give this rant a 10.

Not if the Hummer is cutting into your lane in front of you. In that case, slamming on your brakes might help you avoid getting rammed as he changes lanes.

He said rammed “by the Hummer”. I understand how one can get rammed by someone else.

Yeah, that part wasn’t terribly well-written. I’m thinking of re-wording it before I send it in to Dear Abby.

Ya gotta keep “ass mint”, though. That was my favorite part.
