Speed Rant: Driving Skills
Why in the fuck would someone turn on their turn signal midway through a turn? Its rude really to tell people your intentions after its already too late to make other arrangements.

Some idiot woman just did this in her uber-klass SL500 Benz (coifed ooooh so perfectly but I think they forgot to reinsert her brain when they were done). Sat in the left hand lane for the entire red light with me behind her and then a few more cars behind me, another lane to our right. The light changed to green and she pulled forward about three feet and THEN turned on her flipping turn signal while the cars on the other side of the intersection started going through. Apparently it never occurred to this stupid woman that people behind her might have benefited from knowing her intentions. So instead of being able to pass through easily, she forced everyone to wait for her until the other traffic had gone by.

And no, this isn't a huge problem by any means but its indicative of a larger problem. The people lost in their own worlds and not giving the first fucking shit about anyone else. I won't even broach the whole rich bitch issue which could be raised here. Instead, I'll just write down her memorized license plate and will key "USE YOUR FUCKING TURN SIGNAL" into her hood if I see her around town. That should do it, right?
