Women Drivers
I was riding to work yesterday when I observed a female driver cut right in
front of a pickup truck causing him to have to drive on to the shoulder to
avoid hitting her. This evidently angered the driver enough that he hung his
arm out his window and flipped the woman off.
"Man, that guy is stupid" I thought to myself. I ALWAYS smile nicely and
wave in a sheepish manner whenever a female does anything to me in traffic
and here's why:
I drive 48 miles each way every day to work, that's 96 miles each day. Of
these, 16 miles each way is bumper-to-bumper. Most of the bumper-to-bumper
is on an 8 lane highway so if you just look at the 7 lanes I am not in, that
means I pass something like a new car every 40 feet per lane. That's 7 cars
every 40 feet for 32 miles. That works out to be 982 cars every mile, or
31,424 cars. Even though the rest of the 32 miles is not bumper to bumper, I
figure I pass at least another 4000 cars. That brings the number to
something like 36,000 cars I pass every day. Statistically, half of these
are driven by females, that's 18,000.
In any given group of females 1 in 28 has PMS. That's 642.
According to Cosmopolitan, 70% describe their love life as dissatisfying or
unrewarding. That's 449.
According to the National Institute of Health, 22% of all females have
seriously considered suicide or homicide. That's 98.
And 34% describe men as their biggest problem. That's 33.
According to the National Rifle Association 5% of all females carry weapons
and this number is increasing.
That means that EVERY SINGLE DAY, I drive past at least one female that has
a lousy love life, thinks men are her biggest problem, has seriously
considered suicide or homicide, has PMS, and is armed.
Flip one off?... I think not.
