@LadyFRZ one word
Minivan
they are, no joke, the most aggressive drivers I see on the road. And it's understandable because

1. They have to drive a minivan
2. They have to deal with screaming children. Always.

Haha man that must suck! I'd drive like an ass too if I was them.
--The best is when you get to witness the mom turning around to slap the kid in the back lmao. Ah the memories.

I'm sorry to hear about the interview tho

I hope you land yourself some more. Don't give up searching!

I have to start looking for a part time job too but haven't been very motivated, I also seriously fear rejection. it's the worst feeling ever

Lol @ that video. The drift at the end made it.

Big time lawyers. That's who.

Maybe I should do that as a side job. Just telling people what to wear or not.

A guy that likes your, ahem... 'style'?

I asked for the interviewers emails (for the thank you) but they wouldn't give them to me. So I give hard copies of the thank you letters I created. As I'm leaving, I can see the front desk person putting them in the waste bucket.
My feet have blisters and are all torn apart due to the heels I wore, for that.

Also,tailgators...Again.
I'm going 40 in a 30 zone (I know, bad LadyFRZ) around San Diego Bay to kinda make myself feel better. I have this old hag in a minivan on my ass the entire time.
I leave that road, go to another (This is another person in a van). There's 2 lanes, and it merges down to 1 lane in about half a mile, so she definitely had time to pass me. But she didn't, she stayed right on my ass, even though the lane to my left was open. WHY?

Sorry to hear... I hope you have better luck on a future interview

Totally hear what you mean.
Minivans and sedans as well seem to be an issue. IE: Camrys. Had one riding up my ass on an offramp. I'm not gonna go 80mph on an offramp that is suspended over 2 stories, thanks.

I refuse to drive vans. My family had a plymouth minivan and it kept stalling on me when I would drive it. It stalled mid-turn once, and the turn was onto a downhill slope. Best part? I was still on my learner's permit, I was still learning to drive. (Yes,my dad was right there). If I ever have kids, if I need to strap them to the roof of an FRS/ BRZ, I will. I hate vans.

Haha that last part I pictured in my head and gave me a good laugh

Nah, just get a tow-behind cart to buckle them into. You should be golden.

Beautiful idea, thank you.
Strapping them to the roof would fuck up the aerodynamics of the car,too, wouldn't it? :/ can't have that.

There you go, something like this:



Aerodynamics preserved. Thanks Clarkson.

That was such a funny clip.
Hammond and his train catching on fire...
Also, the perfect road trip. Love Top Gear UK.

But now you're adding unnecessary weight. I'd just leave them behind and call a taxi -haha

I'm not saying I do that when pedestrians piss me off, but...

[Nevermore]

I've had some issues with jaywalkers before. I just slow down and wait for them to get out of my way and then as I pass gun it loudly. I don't drift though...
