Zippers and the art of Merging

What is wrong with people who don’t know how to merge? Merging is like zipping up your pants. Each car is like a tooth in the zipper. I realize that zippers are a relatively new form of fastening things, but in the 100 or so years that they have been around most people have gotten the basic gist of it. Merging has been around since horse and buggies, so why is it so hard for some people to figure out. And what is going through their minds when they decide to try and edge out that next car. “If I can just get in front of this guy I bet traffic will open up.”
My favorites are the people who try to get around the tractor-trailers. “Good call!” Lets weigh the Pros vs. Cons. Pro – if you make it you get to wherever you are going approximately 3 seconds sooner, plus or minus. Con – if you don’t make it 30 tons of big-rig is going to run your “Mach 5” over. I leave the decision up to you.

Lexicon of Stupidity

This is the short list of stupid quotes and emails that people have actually uttered or sent to me or my co-workers. Recently, I have also added stupidity that I have observed. If you ever had any doubt in the fallibility of humanity, this blog should put that to bed. Some names and events have been changed to protect me. Others have been left the same to punish the idiotic. If you notice a misquote feel free to keep it to yourself.
