When a Car Cuts Me Off

Why is it when a car chases me down and cuts me off
It is never a new car, or anyone with insurance.
It is always an indigent who has dents on at least three sides.
I do everything I can to avoid adding to their car’s dents,
Figuring this is some kind of a scam and I do not want to “play”.
I am worried that as I get older, my reaction time will be slower.

And sometimes it is.

Boy, do I hate it when that happens. I have been known to become very angry. Not road rage, you understand. Just very, very angry, and it seems to always come out through my middle finger!

I always hold my middle finger under the dash, then they do not shoot me for it but I still feel satisfaction.

You may be familiar…when we first moved to Hawaii, we were near a car. The man sticks out his hand, with three middle fingers down. It took me a second…I thought it was a nefarious sign. LOL
