now there's something that doesn't happen every day

i was driving into work this morning, stuck in the traffic that surrounds the local T station and the minivan in front of me dives into the pull off (that isn't really much of a pull off) to drop her passenger off (who thankfully jumps out pretty quickly). she starts to pull back into traffic (i can't do anything but let her in) but then she starts to turn back rather than out in front of me. so i start yelling at her to move left (pull back into traffic, go around the idiot in front of her)

then Uncle Al usurps me.

the final four lines to LiesLiesLies (a fine little ditty off Rio Grande Blood, also available in remixed form on Rio Grande Dub) are:

Don’t listen to me, listen to your head
Don’t listen
Don’t listen to anything they say
Don’t listen


i know the song is a political rant, but taken out of context (me yelling at a stupid driver), it sounds like Uncle Al was telling the foolish driver to ignore me.

D'OH!

(turned out she was being kind to the car in front of her who wanted to pull out, but i couldn't see due to her being in a minivan obstructing my view (i saw the first car, but not the one immediately in front of her). by which point the CD had moved onto the next track - The Great Satan)

i laughed.
