Constant Cellphone Talk Time Continuim

How come the cellphone blockheads driving on the road while swirving all lanes are too distracted to notice when you cut them off and throw garbage at them, its funny they never even notice this stuff, even when you flick buggies on their car window they never even notice TOO DISTRACTED

When driving my SUV, trying to smoke a joint and talk on the cell phone,I swerve around so all you bitches stay behind me as I am in the lead and am going to win.

I saw a driver talking on his cellphone that ran a light on 1st Avenue by about 5 seconds, no joke. Nice car, though. BMW low rider with shiny-ass rims. Luckily I was looking even after I got the walk signal, and saw him coming.

Geez, folks, can't you at least go handsfree? It IS 2005, and someone driving that kind of a ride should be able to afford it. And WATCH THE TRAFFIC SIGNALS.

Better yet, just do without the phone calls for 20 minutes. Call them back once you're parked. Turn it off when you drive, send them to voicemail and screw your friends if they can't handle waiting 20 minutes to talk with you.

Speaking of cell phone induced driving distractions...
Last night, I was taking the 71 to the University district at around 8 PM. The bus was pretty full as we cruised down Eastlake. Then it started. I heard the driver talking to someone. But who could the driver be talking to and laughing with, as there was no one at the front of the bus? I figured she was talking on her celly, so I walked to the front of the bus to check it out. Sure enough, she was on the phone, but she tried to hide it when I walked up to the front. She continued this conversation as we crossed the U-bridge and up to the U-district. She seemed to drive fine, and told her conversor to hold on when she made stops, but it was really unsettleing.

this is why as a pedestrian I cary one of those nifty emergency car tool thingys--not to save the lives of SUV drivers as their car erupts in flames--but so I can shatter the windows of asshats that cut me off in the crosswalk.

also if you want to be descreet (as shattering windows is fairly obvious) you can carry a screwdiver or whip out your keys and scratch the sobs car as he speeds on past.
