Honk If You're a D*ckhead.

So, this past August I was in Jamaica, to get married. Which, by the way, I highly recommend to those who don't have a need or desire to have a huge wedding with all kinds of people you don't know showing up and such. You're already there for a honeymoon, and the Caribbean is simply awesome.

Anyway, I learned something down there, one of those things you don't learn about a country until you get there. They honk their horns a lot. But, it's not rude, not in the slightest bit how we use our horns in the US. It's not to say "MOVE!" or "GET OUT OF THE WAY!" or "SCREW YOU!" They use their horn to say hi, or to say excuse me as they move around a slower moving vehicle. Interesting study in the overall attitudes of the two cultures simply by how we honk our horns.

I bring this up because this afternoon as I was going to the grocery store with my wife, I was at a red light coming out of our neighborhood. We were the third car in line at the light, and when the light turned green, the second car blared his horn at the first car. Right after it turned green. Like, a second, tops. Who does this? Do you? Because if you do, stand still so I can thwap you upside your dumb ass head. How much of a hurry to you have to be in to honk your horn at somebody for not flooring it the second a light turns green? And it's not even a ridiculously short light, either, there's time. There is literally no excuse for that kind of behavior, you're a dick head if you do it. Plain and simple So don't do it. I don't want to have to hurt you. Okay? Okay.
