I really, really, really, really, really hate driving in Minnesota.

What happened?

This morning some fucker cut me off in the bike lane and I screamed words the boys don't like at him 'till my throat hurt.

Are you okay?

I'm fine, just pissed. Some fucker was stopped at a red light with his left turn signal on so I pulled up next to him to go around. When the light changed, I started to go and he then changed his mind about turning and tried to pass me. When he saw he couldn't, he rode our fender for half a block while revving his engine, as if I'd somehow done something wrong. Then he turned left at the end of the block. It's the second time this has happened to me just this week. It happens a lot, I guess because people aren't supposed to drive around cars turning left.

Oh, that IS a Minnesota moment. I thought it was general assholedness and obliviousness (which is what mine was), but yes. Only here is it somehow _rude_ to go around people turning left.

That's the same number of "really"s as Haddayr's famous spinach post.

I must hate driving in Minnesota as much as Haddayr loves spinach.

Seems like an obvious conclusion.
