  Why do some drivers find it impossible switch lanes behind you instead of nearly causing an accident so that they can cut in in front of you?

  This hits upon a pet peeve of mine.  Drivers who speed up to get in front of you and then put on ther brakes. 

  Yeah, the hot flash thing...  I can be sitting here minding my own business, then all of a sudden, I am taken over by some alien heat monster.  If I hear B complain one more time about how cold he is when I am in the midst of a hot flash,  well, bad things will happen.  And I will love every minute of it.  ;)

  Uni, you cannot possibly be old enough for hot flashes.

• uniquely-ironic said on Nov 10, 2008....

  MissMimi - I don't have the full blown ones, but at night I have heat surges that I believe are the beginning of peri-menopause.  Despite my recent labs that suggest that this is impossible, I now find sleeping in refrigerator cold rooms appealing.  As for those drivers .......... just you wait!!!

• hinana said on Nov 10, 2008....

  well. the sunday afternoon thing is something to do with sunday being a day of rest and all..in canada(as far as i know) it used to be mandatory to have your shop closed on sundays..but then there was the whole thing with the charter of rights and freedoms stuff. so i guess they compropmised=P

  as for the children. no matter how much you parents tell us that when you were kids you were soooo much better then us, children are just new and improved versions of you. therefore, yes i will have some chocoalte but dont you dare put those darn tomatoes on my plate tyvm. xD

  i stand guity of not answering cell phones when out.

  btw. i dont think your evening heat surges have to do with menopause. i get those all the time and im not even legal yet =P

• uniquely-ironic said on Nov 10, 2008....

  hinana - I guess I was just resenting the fact that there wasn't a coffee shop open when I visited with my sister yesterday around 3:30 pm.  You kids ...... (that's all I'm gonna say).  As for the other, answer your phone or leave it home you silly thing!!  I hope you're right about the heat surges.  I'd like to believe my metabolism is just that aggressive, but I'm wandering into peri-meno age.

• Lucytorial said on Nov 10, 2008....

  Thems big questions Uni.....
   
  Sunday trading is unusual in that it wasn't always so here, church and all that... would you want to work late sunday?
   
  You can never have too much caffeen... well unless you start behaving like a speed freak....
   
  Don't start me on drivers... I've had far too many experiences the last couple of days I don't want to start or I won't stop... grrr

• uniquely-ironic said on Nov 10, 2008....

  Lucy - I've always practised a Saturday religion, so the sunday thing has been a burr under my saddle for a long time.  So you're saying the fact that I can't stop bouncing my knee might be a sign of too much caffiene?!!!  Never!  It's simply a birth defect!  and drivers ........ the air in my car was blue for about 2 hours last night as I "told" them!

• diabolicdame said on Nov 10, 2008....

  The last one is really something! Maybe you've given me a topic for my future phd.. hehehehehe.. but yeah bout the shops shutting on sunday thing, I personally find that sundays make me very very lazy! I assume shopkeepers suffer the same symptoms! 
   
  :-D

• uniquely-ironic said on Nov 10, 2008....

  dd - if they kept the book stores open late on sundays I'd be tempted to just arrive in my jammies in the a.m. and stay until closing.  Thank god for coffee shops in those big book stores.

• Lucytorial said on Nov 10, 2008....

  I actually followed someone until they stopped, I got out and said very nicely "Did you get your liscence out of a packet of froot loops? you almost created an accident?"
  They went red faced, lucky they didn't punch me in the face....
   
  Birth defect? don't get me started girl LOL

• uniquely-ironic said on Nov 10, 2008....

  Lucy - I've always wanted to follow someone, but then I remember that physical violence is against the law :P  And you leave my birth defects alone!

• Lucytorial said on Nov 10, 2008....

  I wasn't talking about yours...... te he heee now I know there's more than one!

• diabolicdame said on Nov 10, 2008....

  Birth defect's'.. hehe.. duly noted! what are you hinding uni?!     ;-)

• Lucytorial said on Nov 10, 2008....

  She has an extra toe
  A third nipple
  Tripple 6 on her head
  and whats that disease called when someone always says inappropriate shit like fuck yoU! in the middle of sentence... foot in mouth???
   
   
  ((Lucy runs away top speed))

• diabolicdame said on Nov 10, 2008....

  Its called the tourretts disorder.. hehehehe.. its rather funny.. lol.. i gotta say that along with a 666 is a lethal combination! Tell me this isn't true uni!    :-D

• uniquely-ironic said on Nov 10, 2008....

  well, I do have driver's tourretts, but I find as long as the windows are rolled up that it's not too big a problem :P
   
  Then there's the whole abscense of sense of direction thing.  It's a terrible affliction!

• Lucytorial said on Nov 10, 2008....

  BWA ha ha haa...... so your essentially mentally challenged in most areas of life Uni?? poor dear... LOL
   
   

• uniquely-ironic said on Nov 10, 2008....

  tread lightly my spunky and often foot in mouth friend!  That's geographical direction.  I have absolutely no problem figuring out that I have no "end goal" in this life other than arriving.  I'm just out to enjoy the trip!

• Lucytorial said on Nov 10, 2008....

  te he hee well then jump on the fun train with me.
   
   

• uniquely-ironic said on Nov 10, 2008....

  Okay!  Who gets to pull the rope for the whistle?  Me?!!!  Please!!!!!

• Lucytorial said on Nov 10, 2008....

  ohh okay then, but I get to push the throttle thingy (thats technical for going faster)

• uniquely-ironic said on Nov 10, 2008....

  Good thing we have a cattle catcher on this thing!  (with your speeding and all)

• Lucytorial said on Nov 10, 2008....

  te he heee gotta go to work, have a  fun day! catch up with you later girl.  :-D

• fragglesrock said on Nov 10, 2008....

  uni - you have me sitting in the fetal position, rocking, trying to get to the bottom of these questions....i may never sleep again...............:)

• uniquely-ironic said on Nov 10, 2008....

  fraggles - LOL so sorry!  I thought these questions only disturbed me!  Just breathe ...... there ya go!

  How is it possible to give birth to children who do not share our taste in foods?
  Im sure this has something to do with outsiders influences..Im with u though, ud think they would like what we like...
   
  Why do shops close early on sunday afternoon, but not saturday afternoon?
  I supose its bc of the holy sabbath, seems to me if they must be open at all on sunday they should open late and stay late so everyone can go to church, not open early and close early, church here doesnt have worship at 3pm ...  : /
   
  Why do some drivers find it impossible switch lanes behind you instead of nearly causing an accident so that they can cut in in front of you?
  Im guilty of this.  I live in fear of being stuck behind a slow driver and not being able to pass, so if im already on their but bc they are too slow ill cut infront while changing lanes so they dont get a chance to slow me down...
   
  What about the word "mocha" makes it possible for someone to hand you a "latte"?
  Im convinced that they dont know the difference.  Thy burned all their taste buds of and the permanent marker label is fuzzy from drips of coffee running over it.   lol, i cant tell a difference : P 
   
  How many caffeinated drinks is too much?
  It depends on what ur poison is.  If its redbull 5 is too much, if its coffee 12 is too much, if its a Monster 5 is too much, if its a NOS 2 is too much- those drinks are like speed.  This comes from the "National Chris Caffeine limits to prevent stroke association" Or better known as NCCSA..
   
  Wasn't the idea of a cell phone so that you could answer calls when you're not home?
  Cant help u there, my mom could though, she never answers her cell phone away from home.  Me on the other hand am a screener, if i dont answer, i dont like u. 
   
  Why hasn't anyone harnessed the heating ability of hot flashes?
  I would think that intense bursts of heat would light many on fire if they got into the way, im picturing law suits  : P
   
  Did i help any?  : )

• uniquely-ironic said on Nov 10, 2008....

  star - well, not really.  In fact I have more questions now, but that's just me :)  I suppose you're right about the lawsuits that would inevitably follow after all those hot flashes overloaded the heat converter and toasted someone's ass.

• starchini said on Nov 10, 2008....

  Plus ud have to be hooked up to all kinda of tubes and wires and wear a fan and stand in someones living room and ull prolly only get paid minimum wage : P  lol...

• uniquely-ironic said on Nov 10, 2008....

  star - if that!  Actually I was speaking of the collective energy of all middle aged women, but on a personal level I think I want to "do" a little more with my life.

• queenparanoia said on Nov 10, 2008....

  How is it possible to give birth to children who do not share our taste in foods? dont have kids yet...
   
  Why do shops close early on sunday afternoon, but not saturday afternoon? well we do this on our hardware store because sunday afternon is considered a break from all the work fom monday to sunday.
   
  Why do some drivers find it impossible switch lanes behind you instead of nearly causing an accident so that they can cut in in front of you? because they are stupid.
   
  What about the word "mocha" makes it possible for someone to hand you a "latte"? lol...
   
  How many caffeinated drinks is too much? 3
   
  Wasn't the idea of a cell phone so that you could answer calls when you're not home? you are so right!!!
   
  Why hasn't anyone harnessed the heating ability of hot flashes? because men dont experince them yet...lol... ;-)

• Twylarants said on Nov 10, 2008....

  Uni~ A mocha is a latte with chocolate in it.
  It goes like this:
  espresso- about 2 or 3 inches of yucky strong coffee
  latte-pour steamed milk in the yucky coffee
  cappuccino- move the milk around while it's steaming to make it frothy, then pour into the yucky coffee
  mocha anything- squirt some chocolate in it
  Charge 6 bucks.
  

• wishyouwerehere said on Nov 10, 2008....

  Today, 48 ounces of 7-Eleven coffee constituted too much caffeine - 6 hours later and I am still wide awake and shaking like a chihuahua!

• uniquely-ironic said on Nov 10, 2008....

  queenie - OOhhh, I hadn't thought about that angle on the hot flashes.  I bet if men did get them they'd have figured out how to use them for energy by now.
   
  twirlie - so I thought.  I wonder why the lady last night didn't "notice" that there was no chocolate in my "mocha".   [grumbles to self]  70 miles on a latte, no chocolate!
   
  wishy - you're my kind of gal!!  We should get together and set a new "conscious but not coherent" record for caffiene consumption. :)

• Twylarants said on Nov 10, 2008....

  No chocolate?
  NO FRIGGING CHOCOLATE???
  I'm sorry, but that lady needs to be bitch-slapped.
  

• uniquely-ironic said on Nov 10, 2008....

  Twirlie - yes she does!
