About 98% of them probably don't think anything because they didn't even notice. The other two percent are split between think "cool" or "jerk".

Hmmm... I'm sure there is a thread on this already so I'm not going to start one.

I typically do this most often when I make a mistake. Like most people I consider myself a pretty good driver, but the reality is, even I make plenty of stupid mistakes. There are some times I'm aggressive or ignorant, or both, and I cut someone off or don't notice a car in my blindspot. I'm always thinking to myself, "Oh shit, there's a car. Well, now I look like an asshole in a bright orange sports car, feeding the image!"

I'm sensing an inside joke of which I am not aware.

I realized about an hour into my highway commute this morning that my left blinker was on. I had not turned since entering the highway. I was so ashamed.

Sometimes I forget myself and become that asshole on my morning commute. I try really hard not to be but I'm comfortable with a small bubble. It's like Jekyll and Hyde because any other time, I'm quite relaxed about traffic.

At least I give plenty of advance notice with my turn signal but yeah, speeding up to close the gap doesn't work on me.

I look in my mirror sometimes when I pass people in a corner on the freeway and wonder if they notice how quick I went around the corner. Then I figure if they did they are probably cussing me not impressed with the car.

Is anyone else familiar with calculus 4 topics, (very random question indeed, quite appropriate for the thread). Does anyone have good learning tips other than read the book like a bible? because the book we have is written by one of the professors, and each page has a grammatical error on it somewhere (to give you guys a hint of the quality Im dealin with here).

I have these thoughts, for a few fleeting seconds before I recognize no one was hit or anything and everyones safe and fine and what not, checking the standard metaphorical boxes. Then I just dont care if they think I'm an ass, I try not to drive like one.

If Gma got me stuck behind her for 30 minutes doing 15 under, I am going to be a lil heated, though. Or anyone doing 15 under, which is like everyone in Washington.

Oh jeez. It's been like a decade for me. Vector fields?
