    1. People on their phone... I wish they would just crash into a tree to learn their lesson. I see adults on their phone with kids in the back seat so much it's pathetic
    2. no blinkers, how lazy can you be?
    3. People waiting 60+ seconds in a parking lot for a car to pull out of a spot when theres a line of traffic behind them
    4. Changing lanes right in front of someone/cutting them off as you approach a red light so they can be first in line
    5. Sitting in a long ass line of traffic on my way to work every morning so people can drop their kids off at school
    6. slow ass drivers/oblivious/not courteous to other drivers around you
    7. people who think putting your blinker on means you can cut someone off instead of being prepared ahead of time
    8. seeing people drive with headphones in, so dangerous
    9. people who pull some stupid shit (i.e. cutting you off with no signal) and get mad at you if you beep at them to let them know they're a dumbass
    10. every driver on the road who can't manage common sense

    Imagine in the future....sitting at a fourway stop looking at three autonomous vehicles and wondering who has the right of way. Our engineers think it will be fun to bully them... They will be scurrying like rats in "avoidance mode" - Walmart parking lot will be a madhouse!

    I've been flipped off by a guy (also in a Tacoma; you'd think there'd be a professional courtesy); Why? Because I blasted my horn at him for making a left turn across two lanes of traffic, directly in front of me, to get into an apartment complex...

    Wonder how he would have reacted if I wasn't as alert? If I T-boned his truck and totaled both of our trucks in the process, in which case he'd be at fault, and his insurance company had to pay for both trucks?

    #7 and #8 happened to me at the same time recently...

    I was driving on a notorious stretch of road (Route 611 in Warrington Township), and I was in the left lane. There was a green GMC Envoy in the right lane, and his left rear was roughly at my right front...

    The Envoy's left turn signal came on and it started to get into the left lane, almost clipping my Tacoma in the process. I laid on the horn, but ended up having to slam on the brakes because the driver was oblivious. At this point, I had no idea who was driving the Envoy (man, woman, teenager, senior citizen, etc). The Envoy just came into my lane anyway, and the driver didn't swerve or do anything you'd expect from a driver who'd just been beeped at...

    Pissed off, I got into the the right lane, roared past the Envoy, and beeped on the horn again. I looked to my left as I passed the Envoy, and the driver was this young Mexican guy with fucking earbuds in his ears! No wonder the moron didn't seem to react when I beeped!

    No Target where I’m at... Besides that whole gender bathroom issue confuses me.

    Try going to Walfart at midnight or later if you want some "true can't make this shit up" stories to tell!

    About 4 years ago, we were up in York County, Maine for vacation (my Grandma has a lake house there), and we stopped at the huge Super Walfart they have on the outskirts of town. While we were in the checkout line, we saw these two women with faces that appear to have been burned, and I surmised that they were meth addicts...

    @buckhuntin-tacoma

    You probably know why I'm calling it "Walfart" instead of it's actual name...?
