I've never felt so alone then I do right now. Perfect quote is perfect.

Let me tell you something, okay? Where I'm from, having a dream doesn't make you smart. Knowing it won't come true? That does.

This is going to be a stupid update and I'm expecting no comments, but here goes. For those of you that are either in college, grad school, or don't have a long drive this is a free lesson for when you get a full time job and have a drive.

Now, I use to be the nicest drive ever. Now? No. Not at all. See, you think its a waste of time and dangerous to move in and out of traffic, but its not. Today an entire group was stuck behind this one car (I gave the car other names) and we all were stuck going 45 in rush hour traffic and there was no way to move. After 5 annoying minutes I did the most epic move from all the way from the left to the right, back to one lane to the left, right, then all the way back to the left. And got in front of the one car and was able to speed into the open clearing as people behind me tried to do the same move. One person was successful, caught up to me and gave me an air high five and a thumbs up. Now, besides that being on my top 5 random run ins with a stranger, it also motivated me to make this post.

And here stupid 5 things to do in rush hour to get into the open and home faster.

5. Treat rush hour as it is, an epic battle between you and all the people who can't drive. They are denying and cock blocking you left and right. They also don't know what they are doing and have a tendency of running you off the road and will hit you.

4 1/2. Your allowed to get pissed and honk at people for being morons. Don't honk at old people though, it's just mean.

4. The ultimate cock block is when you have three cars in three lanes going the same speed. This is why traffic starts, this cock block. Ride the persons ASS in the left lane, because they are more likely to speed up just enough so you can cut the person off in the middle. They won't move over or anything, because your the asshole.

3. People who squat in lanes are easy to move around and oddly enough, these people are always in the left (fast) and exit lane. The people in the left lane are assholes, the people in the exit more likely are old people to whom you shouldn't honk or people who need to get off the highway in the next 5 exits.

2. The left lane isn't always the fastest. Its mixed with dead weight or people who think the lane is fast and will break in stop. If traffic isn't moving don't go into this lane. People will speed up to go a foot and then break hard. Everyone moves to this lane in crawling traffic because they assume its the fastest. Its not. Unless a merger from the right lane is happening. People do not. know. how. to. merge.

1. Treat traffic like tetris. Think about it, it makes perfect sense. Move in and out of traf you need to picture your car as the piece. You need to move, adjust to make it fit. fic like you are playing tetris.
