so some lady just pulled out in front of me, from a side street, on my way home. couldn't believe it. did the whole brakes screeching, car swerving, horn honking bit. hello? i'm comin' towards ya in broad daylight on a main street, did you think i was going to stop for no reason?

i didn't even have time to swear, though numerous choice words certainly marched through my head at blazing speed. is it wrong that my first thought [if you don't count the string of expletives as a "thought"] after driving on was, "i wonder how much it would have taken to total my car..."
