I'll take that shoulder 10/10 times to turn right, since there is a merge lane on 66, while cars wait for it to be safe to turn left. I don't know why that would upset someone.
I also always go out of my way to inch forward to let a car squeeze into a turn lane if I can. Which I guess leads me to another gear grinder, I get annoyed when people that have room don't inch forward to let others into a turn lane. I get that many drivers are not aware of their surroundings and don't look at their mirror while stopped, but this little bit of curtesy can be the difference between hitting a lead light and sitting at a double red for another light cycle.

Well for sure 3 or 4 car lengths. 3 of the 4 cars i super honked were driven by chinese women. I guess they must have been mainlanders because in China it's a free for all on the shoulder when there is an accident.
lol the poor school bus in front of me prob at first i was honking him.

They were harassing me with their stupid pamphlets and I told them there is no effing God and they all shut up.

I've said it before, whenever those folks are out I ask for several of the pamphlets and then tell them its so I can jerk off later to them. You want to offend to make your point, we can play that game too.

Apparently when a light goes red you just stop in the middle of the intersection now. Good stuff.

I remember asking them for pamphlets and then asked them if the pamphlets had directions to the clinic so I could help some friends get there for their abortions.

But think of all the people getting home quicker.
Red lights are just a suggestion if you have a good reason.

A while ago some lady stopped on the 401 collector's in front of me, in the middle of the day, because she wanted to get to the left lane to get on the 427 north, even though the lane she already was in, also goes to the 427 north. Can't believe she didn't cause a multi-car accident.

You honestly have never heard of a case where someone is convicted of manslaughter, when they did something that any sane person would expect death to result, because they were severely impaired? Like…that’s a pretty common thing isn’t it?
I don’t mean get away with murder as in Scott free. I mean murdering someone and not facing a murder conviction.
Edit:
Yeah, I’m not imaging it. May 13,2022
“On May 13, the Supreme Court of Canada, in a unanimous decision , ruled that extreme intoxication can be used as a valid defence against criminal charges such as murder, assault, and rape.”
So, like I understand I know nothing about any of it. And there’s probably a good argument for this to be a defence under a very very small amount of circumstances. But don’t tell me it doesn’t happen like I’m making it up.

Hey guys with those stupid roof-top tents on your vehicles... We're a week into December. I think it's safe to put it away until next May. Quit subjecting the rest of us to looking at those dumb-ass things.

They have nowhere to put them, their garage is already full. Plus, those things are heavy and awkward. Nah, if a rusty bike rack can flop around all winter, so can a tent.

Might be cool to get a chorus of preggo ladies with these in their hand and play them like flutes.
Play the November Rain SLASH guitar solo with a hand blender.

They are heavy and kind of pain in the dick to install/remove...mine takes 4 adults to lift it. I do it every spring/fall, but I can see why others leave them on. If they weren't adding to my already terrible fuel economy, I'd probably leave mine on all year too...especially if I knew it pisses you off.

Yeah but jeep owners don't have the spare cash for another tire since they spend a fortune to keep the things running
