Nice, time for an avatar change?

:D

Only thing is Xanax isn't a long term solution. It's just to be taken for weeks or months to get over some short term situation. Long term it will loose it's effectiveness and of course won't solve the underlying issue.

Try to do more "risky" shit while the xanax still works then?

Doing that should allow it to be a little less anxious once you are off of it?

basically use it as a gateway drug to get outta it?

not sure if any of that makes sense at all. :D

Bane has now changed his driving philosophy.

Just as being a "nice guy" garners nothing from women, being a considerate driver garners nothing.

Ergo, if I am presented a window to cut someone off, I will take it.

Had I just done so coming out of the grocery store, I would've controlled my destiny, so to speak, in that I would've held first slot on the line, and been home five minutes earlier, instead of being stuck behind a handicapped man in an Oldsmocaddy.

It has been a recurring theme, getting stuck behind elderly or distracted driver, and I am tired of it.

By waiting "appropriately", I only waste my time. These people want to waste their time, that's fine, but I would rather get somewhere as soon as possible, in the manner I wish to travel.

Of course, to say I will "cut off" lesser drivers is a bit of a misnomer. Given my acceleration, and my desired cruising speed, it is very likely they will never be forced to brake, and therefore, it is not cutting off.

Leaving my driveway was pretty cool. One minute from the time I started the motor until I was half a mile away, despite a stop sign and left turn in my path. :awe:

Or I could use it as a gateway drug to hookers and blow? :hmm:

Hookers and blow are bound to solve my problems, no?
