AMERICAN INTERSECTION RULES FOR DRIVERS. Very important.

If two people are opposing each other at a stop sign intersection, and one of them is going straight through and the other is SIGNALING to make a left turn, the person GOING STRAIGHT THROUGH has the right of way, and needs to go first. If you're the one making a left turn, DON'T cut them off. Wait for them to go, then you can go. You can prepare to make the turn, but until the other party crosses the intersection, that's ALL you're supposed to do.

If you're opposite a person at an intersection who is signaling to make a left turn, and you're planning on going straight through, and they ease forward into the intersection slightly (30-40%), THAT'S KOSHER. It doesn't mean they're making the turn. It SHOULD mean that they're PREPARING to make the turn. You should go straight through unless they're showing signs of actually beginning to make the turn (i.e., starting to swing the car left). In that case, they need driving lessons and they're in the wrong. Be careful!

Easily 60% or more of the people I see at stop sign intersections presumably have driver licenses but have NO IDEA of the rules they're supposed to be following. They shouldn't have those licenses if they are confused about these basic procedures, which are based on pure logic.

There = in that place
Their = belongs to them
They're = THEY ARE

They're NOT interchangeable!!!! You can't just pick one and use it for everything, WTF are they teaching kids these days???

Sorry but bad grammer really, really pisses me off :mad:

OK, I'm done...well, for today anyway, LOL

Others to add:
Specifically, not pacifically
Especially, not Expecially
Lieutenant (Lootenant), not Leftenant *anticipates a slap from zwoti*

Which reminds me of somehting Eddie Izzard said.
"We say 'Herbs' not 'erbs' because it starts with a fucking 'H'."

You do NOT WARSH YOUR CLOTHES! Is there an R in wash? No, there is not. Our first president was NOT George Warshington, and that tasty yellow vegetable IS DEFINATELY NOT a "Squarsh"

Not to mention:
There is a such thing as "Right of way", and it exists more more people than just YOU.

As an American, i must say the american (and most ESPCIALLY new hampshire, friggin "Live Free or die") sense of self-importance is the most annoying thing on earth. Everyone in this state is a shitty driver because they have this overwhelmiing sense of entitlement. Its liek they produce nothing of value, but still think they deserve to be treated like royalty, and EVERYONE here thinks like that....

About grammar:

It really gets to me when I can't read mly messages from people because they type like there gangsta. The whole "i tink i iz gona go ta sleep na dogg" gets on my nerves. You have a brain, use it!!! Maybe its just me & my brother, but we always type in perfect grammar... well, except my little deliberate things, like daze instead of days. I just wanna be able to read what people say!

Vodstok 08-04-2006 01:00 PM

I hate white "gangstas".... to be honest, anyone who walks and talks in that fashion makes me want to beat them with a baseball bat, but holy crap... White Suburban gangstas.... Drop them off in south central in a sheet and watch the fun.

And the use of 'F' instead of 'Th'!!!!! You don't hear these people say 'fe' or 'fat' instead of 'the' or 'that' but they'll quite happily say 'fought' or 'fink' instead of 'thought' & 'think'

Buy a dictionary for f*ck's sake AND READ IT

How hard is it to NOT be stupid? It's really not.

And holy shit.. If a 15 year old calls me "son", i will drop kick his head.
