No, what's comical is that you said both 'stiff' and 'butthurt' in the same sentence.

There have been quite a lot of comments like this popping up. I'm curious if anyone here is familiar with ad hominem.

If not,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ad_hominem
"an argument made personally against an opponent instead of against their argument."

You guys are really busting this guys balls for looking at his phone at a stop light? We all know you did it once so shut up, no one is a perfect driver so stop acting like your one.

I totally turn traction control off and sport mode on... plus... I try to get my tires to light on fire too. And a flaming dragon sticker on the side of my car makes it go faster.

What are you going to do...drive through an intersection where the other traffic has a green light? What if there is a car in front of you? Just ram into them?

Obviously I'm going to do anything that could save my life. If there's room and I'm on the gas, I'll try to move the car. If not, I'll try to get out of the car. If I have to I'll ram into someone else and create a smaller colission to avoid a bigger one.

But hey, if you think you can do that while messing with the phone good for you.

back at ya.

I do a quick vnc to check on server jobs, fix and restart if it failed while looking over the headers of my emails while at the red light. Jeezzz

Face it, some of us do it better than others. Some of thumbs all over, other can multi-task and then some. The ones who could not even carry a conversation with a passenger when they're driving will certainly have no clue when the lights have turned green also. Unlike my wife, who needs full attention when she's negotiating a turn.

I for one, am considerate of others and very aware of my surroundings. Likewise, I get bored easily and hence, I do all kinds of things in my car, mess with my playlist, look around on the Nav, change stations, mess with my rom settings e.g.

Leave the OP alone.

Have fun with your insurance going up because you ran into someone, instead of someone running into you

Obviously this is going nowhere with you..
Please continue using your phone while driving and let natural selection do its job.

pretty soon,the f**kin' things will be banned from "head" use,and you will be forced
to use "bluetooth" you will have to keep 'em in your pocket,or purse,and not be able to
put them to your temple while driving! no texting at all in the car. no "fornicating" either,
at least while moving!
