"For the second straight year, rude Miami drivers earned that city the title of worst road rage."..."Boston has ranked third among cities with the worst road-rage problem"
- Boston is listed third in road-rage survey, Boston Globe

Come on, fellow Bostonians!  How can we let this happen?  Red Sox and Patriots are doing their part being the best, but we, the citizens of Massachusetts, are obviously failing to keep up our Boston's image.

We are in it to win!  We are not driving fast enough, slow enough, crazy enough.  It's easy.  Cut more people off, flip more people off, yell at bad drivers, swipe bicyclists, go down against traffic on a one way street, change 3 lanes at the same time, the opportunities are everywhere.  Especially after the Big Dig with all the constructions, the roads lack all rhyme or reason (or signs).  This is a prime situation to become ruder than ever.

 Come on!!  Ralley the troops!  Pull out your cell phones, put those ear phones in, smash your directionals and get out there!

We have Big Dig, the most expensive public works project in American history. At least we have that crown.

From Wikipedia
"The Big Dig has been the most expensive highway project in the U.S.[1] Although the project was estimated at $2.8 billion in 1985 (in 1982 dollars), over $14.6 billion had been spent in federal and state tax dollars as of 2006. [2] The project has incurred criminal arrests, escalating costs, death, leaks, and charges of poor execution and use of substandard materials. The Massachusetts Attorney General is demanding contractors refund taxpayers $108 million for "shoddy work."

OK, I will do my part by driving while reading the Globe. [smiley=happy]

Anyone know how to run a hair dryer in a car? I could do my hair while driving![smiley=cool]
4. Boscorelli
Doesn't a hair dryer take like 800~1600 watts? That would probably kill your car.

...wait, that's good! Make sure to break down right in middle of the Leverett Circle!!

i'll do my part by driving really slow in the morning and at night down the leverett connector. Making sure to never keep up with the car infront of me so 5/6 cars can jump ahead and I can create tons of road rage behind me. I promise to drive up the leverett ramp to 93 at snails pace of 35mph so that myself and everyone behind me is pretty much at a dead stop upon entering the highway. I further commit to not look in any of my mirrors for the next month to see who is around me before switching lanes. If an accidently should occur I promise to through my duncan donuts coffeeat the offender! because surely it will not be my fault.

Crashbang, I can see you reciting that with your hand raised, palm forward. nicely done. We should all take that vow.

"I can create tons of road rage behind me." Classic.

I took care of a bicyclist a couple of weeks ago. Seriously! (he hit me. it was his fault. no one was injured. I'll try harder next time)

Forget committing to NOT look at the mirror. Just take them off. Who needs them?

LOL.. we should make a "masshole's pledge" and make new drivers read it out loud before they can get their license. It would be like the citizenship ceremony, for massholes.

GreenOrangeRedBlueSilver- I completely agree with you about my mirrors. I thought about it on my way to work today and decided that they were indeed useless. who created such a waste, also making my car less areodynamic! So I snapped those fuckers off. It should be smooth sailing from hear on out! If I can't see it..it didn't happen.

haha..fun stuff.
