A Simple Explanation

To the Gentleman in the white SUV from this morning,

I thought I would offer an explanation for what I'm sure you just don't understand. I imagine you find yourself the recipient of more than what you perceive as your fare share of middle fingers or other national and international symbols of "You're a complete moron, do you know that buddy?" I deduce this from the fact that you have taken the time to express your confusion with your licence plate of "Y U H8N"

Well, here's the reason we're 'H8N U'...in the space of just about 30 seconds, in the dark of pre-dawn when it was pouring down rain and thus visibility was bad and the roads were slick, you proceeded to cut off not just me, but six other people as you wove your way in and out of the lanes of traffic all moving slowly through their daily march to the office.

In other words, you really ARE a moron.

What makes it funny to the rest of us (well, I found it hillarious, I imagine all the other people who risked getting rear ended in their efforts to avoid hitting you also found it amusing) is that at the next stop light, you were exactly 2 cars ahead of where you started.

I hope it made you feel better.

I did also want you to know that, despite your apparant best efforts to the contrary, you did not manage to cause any accidents today. I imagine you will try all the harder during your evening drive home and possibly again tomorrow morning. And we'll be applauding your efforts and showing you our support with that single finger of thankfulness.
