Why do drivers think I will go faster if they get so close that I can see their nose hairs? I don’t have any extra nose tweezers for them, and if I did, how would I give the tweezers to them. Throw the nose hair clippers violently through their windshield while doing 65 mph? Hmm, that actually sounds quite nice.
I need a bumper sticker that says, “I brake QUICKLY for tailgaters.” Or maybe, “I BREAK arms and legs of tailgaters.”
Wish me luck on my morning commute. It looks grumpy outside today.

I’ve been known to give a courtesy service to tailgaters. I call it a brake-check. Works quite well, as long as the tester has a quick car and can accelerate away in case of failure.
Once I retire, I will be much more diligent about checking my brakes and helping others check theirs. Until then, I need to get to work with at least my car in tact, if not my sanity.
“It looks grumpy outside today.”
thank you … I needed a good belly laugh today.
maybe tomorrow, when my frown is bending my face, I’ll remember this, and laugh.
Wisconsin’s winters have a lot of grumpy days. 🙂
