  • Did you seriously just...?

    So, it's early in the morning and I'm walking to the gym because that's how I roll.

    There's a four lane road I have to cross. It's not really that busy but it's got a median. So I'm waiting patiently for the walk signal to come on and a car makes a left turn in front of me. That ought to be fine but my brain goes 'Did I just see that?!?'

    Because instead of turning into the RIGHT hand side of the road, he turns into the left. Directly into oncoming traffic. No one was at the light yet which sort of explains how he could make the mistake at all but WHO DOES THAT?!? So I watch a little wide eyed as he goes down the road a little as cars begin to come up to the lights and the person driving the car clearly realizes he has MASSIVELY fucked up. He pulls onto the median and other cars honk at him before he manages to do a U-turn. Fortunately, it really is a fairly quiet road as well as being multi-lane. I have no idea what he'd have done if it was busy.

    My guess - cell phones are bad, put it away.

    Ah, but you did say it's early in the morning.

    My guess: HAVE A COFFEE BEFORE YOU GET BEHIND THE WHEEL.

      Well, my definition of early, which is 9:45, maybe 10.

      We should all be fully caffeinated by 10.

        I'll second that definition of "early."
