Hang in there John. Thank heaven you are an individual--besides, you're sort of cute when you're angry.
Sometimes I just can't help myself.
Diane this is not a development, this is an entire city.
Now you guys have offended me. I drive an SUV, talk incessantly on my cell phone while driving and walking, love competition and live in a gated community (or did.) Oh dear, I'm going to lose all my friends. I try to live right, but..............well, I have no excuse really.
I think I better go back to square one and start over. Still, I do love diversity and hate speaking in generalities. Does that make me idiosyncratic? Or is that unique? Liberal maybe?
I'm with Craven on the competition. But I do dislike sore losers. If I lose, I always like to believe I've played my best. And I try not to be rude about losing............but sometimes I fail.
You know what I really dislike is Bill Bennett and his type. Bossy hypocrites. And republicans who live in track houses with rules about keeping their garage doors closed when not in use. And proselytizers. Espeically proselytizers.
the primary function of gated communities is to keep the residents inside the gates
Unfortunately this is true, Dys. So what happened that I escaped?
fiat lux Lola you saw the light
and the light is bright................
Dys, I had no idea it was an entire city! Driving by it looked like a development. Good grief, is there such a thing as a gated city?
73,000 Republicans all in one place.............oh dear, I'm getting ideas...........
Uh huh, Lola, where's a good chronosynclastic infidubla when ya need one?
Dys the world needs Moses 2. you sound like the man for the job

Goddamnityousonsofbitches! I cam here fired up to rant about the gas hogs, the gas hogs driven by individuals who never leave this pathetic freaking suburbanized excuse for a city, these 6 ton motherhumpers who don't even know how the freakin drive, who round corners at a tentative two miles an hour and still manage to run over what's around the bend, these jackasses who can't even keep their goddamn tank in a single lane and then try to jam it into a compact parking space, these bastardsandbitches who change lanes and only check for other cars at EYE LEVEL, which for them is a good four feet above the roof of my li'l civic, which picks up a new ding from some dickhead's high-mounted door every goddamn week and never so much as a note saying sorry, these motherfückers can kiss my goddamn pale pasty ass! (automobile efficiency in the US reached a two decade low in 2002; we bombed the crap out of an oil-producing nation in 2003; meanwhile subsaharan africa sits in shambles, waiting for the apocalypse. granted, they don't have 2003 navigators, tine phones, and hair gel, so who's going to notice?)
and what's with the freaking dudes with all the hair gel? come on, kids.
OAK - what album is that on?
Pdog - I saw the most ridiculous thing ever (look away Ms. Lola) a HUGE suv with liberal bumper stickers. Gore for Prez, environmental this, up with people that..... grrrr. Idiot.
And by the way - I'm glad to see someone else who hates suvs as much as I do, well said.
i had a GMC S-15 Jimmy for many years 6 cylinder 29 mpg, put 240,000 miles on it loved it, too bad you cant buy those small ones any more.
you can, they're subaru foresters now.
Well, I will admit that I hate the huge Lincolns and Cadillac SUVs. They are always in the way. But then I wouldn't drive a Lincoln or a Cadillac of any variety anyway. My SUV is a Land Cruiser and it gets good gas mileage. And I don't drive it all the time. Mostly I drive my Mercedes CLK AMG 55. It's fast and little, but it gets great gas mileage. When I drive the SUV it's usually been for hauling kids around or hauling stuff like plants for the garden. Maybe we could rant about people who are unmindful of the environment and drive the biggies for some status reason rather than for it's functionality. And any car that doesn't get good gas mileage I think is not fair to others. There's really no reason why an SUV has to be as big as the Cadillac, for instance.
