As some of you might know, I currently live and work in Australia. It's been a huge change for me since I left Chicago about 2 months ago, but some things stay the same no matter where you go. People, for instance, never change. They have been and always will be completely retarded and self-important.

Case in point, this morning I was on the bus going to work. It's a pretty boring ride that lasts between 45 minutes to an hour every morning, so I try to amuse myself by watching people in traffic. Well, about 2 blocks from my current gig was a small red car trying to merge with a cross lane at an intersection. There was a guy driving a very pricey BMW directly behind this car. He wanted to pass and was impatiently honking his horn. The moment the red car budged, he hit the accelerator to take him over. Well, he put a little too much pressure on the peddle and slammed right into rear of the little red car.

What happened next? Did the guy in the BMW stop, get out, see if anyone got hurt and then assess the damage? Of course not! That would make too much sense. so instead of doing the right thing, he did the typical thing and attempted to speed off. You can guess what happened next, right? In his attempt to avoid accepting responsibility for his douche-baggery, he tried to escape by speeding off into the merging lane and ran right into another car.

What would have been a simple fender-bender and call to his insurance agency, now became that as well wreckless driving and attempted hit-and-run.

People are dumb.
