Raging against the machine

This morning I was rudely cut off twice by the same guy, the lead grey Ford Escape. I usually don’t get that vengeful and road rage-y over people cutting me off, but this guy got my goat. First, as I was in line getting on the metered on ramp like everyone else, the Escape came speeding up in the carpool only entrance, and despite the lack of space between my car and the car in front of me, he stuck his nose in front of my car, inches from my left corner bumper, with no signal what soever, and of...

Some insiders apparently get in there, took the snakes, and sold them out somewhere to be eaten for supposedly medicinal value and makes banks doing it. I pray that karma will have it sooner rather later that this dude is going to get bitten by one of the snakes he stole, and he’d die because there is no serum available. *ucker....
