The Hell with Drivers Today?!

The concert at Miriam College ended at about 7pm. I didn't mind going home that late since I always go home around that time because of school anyway. I waited at least 40 minutes for a jeep to come by. Every jeep that passed me was always full. I didn't mind waiting under the rain, I got used to that too. But eventually one came by with some seats left. Hooray for me, right? As if. If I only knew....

This jeepney driver is the reason why I hate driving. The moment I got on, he went like 0 to 50 in 2 seconds. This was along Aurora going to Riverbanks so the street was crowded with bumper to bumper traffic. But this idiot didn't care! He swerved between lanes overtaking every car he sees. Everyone was already being pushed to the back of the vehicle due to the force (jeepney = no back door = I could've died there). But what can I do? It's not exactly like I can just pick another available jeepney. So I stuck with this one. Bad choice.

We we're in a dimly lit residential area. But this moron wouldn't even slow down. IT'S A FREAKING 2-way one-lane RESIDENTIAL AREA! But he didn't care. Not even as we approached a school zone. A SCHOOL ZONE FOR GOD'S SAKE!! Innocent children waiting for a ride could've been killed with your 60kph driving ON A TWO-WAY ONE-LANE HARDLY LIT FREAKIN' SCHOOL ZONE!! The moron even had the gall to overtake a private car going about 30kph (safe speed) and yell "PU**NG I*A MO, G**O KA!! (Translation: Son of a b***h, f**ktard)" at the car, in front of the kids waiting at the sidewalk, and in front of the children riding at the back. Oh, and he doesn't even slow down on curves, so we felt like the jeep was gonna turn over at every curve because of the centrifugal force. Look bastard, I know that life is hard and all, but how the hell did you even pass for a professional drivers license if you can't even respect other drivers NOR care for the lives of pedestrians?! The hell with you! You're responsible for the lives of your riders, pedestrians, and fellow drivers on the road, but the only thing you care about is going fast, hitting the brakes, swerving real close, and going in and out of traffic just to get more lives to endanger!

Oh but it didn't stop there. Oh no. Eventually, I got to my stop. I signaled the driver that I was getting off. No surprise that he pulled a Power Break (50~ish to 0 in 2 seconds) on me. So whee~ Stumble off the jeep I go. But this is the best part. As I was walking near the front of the jeep, THE RETARD DIDN'T EVEN HAVE HIS HEADLIGHTS ON! NO VISIBILITY WHATSOEVER! NADA! ZILCH! NO S#!T! He was driving in a dimly lit school zone/residential area AT NIGHT in super fast speeds in a very VERY narrow road WITH NO F**KING HEADLIGHTS!! GOOD GOD why the hell did they ever let you on the streets!?

And lo and behold, he drove away so fast that I didn't even had time to write down the plate number. What a dumbass....

Well this is certainly different from your other posts.

But that's a good thing, seeing as it looks like you're commenting on too many pedantic documentaries and such lately.

Also, there's no such thing as centrifugal force. =p

This has nothin' to really do with your blog. But I'm pretty sure you can relate or something like that.

I noticed you were... upset at a certain topic on a certain forum about a certain statement that certainly said that "Faith was a load of crap."

I, despite being secular, would like to say I commend you on your analogy of faith to a friend. Something that's there to help you, not to solve your problems. All that jazz, I thought it was cool. Despite being secular, I hate it when people say religion is bad, or stupid, or whatever, unless it's a joke.

In fact, one thing that annoys me about a lot of people who call themselves Atheist is that many aren't really all that atheistic as opposed to disliking Christianity or something. Then there's many who undermine religion. Even if one doesn't agree, I think they should respect... and some people think it's impossible to "respect" religion. To those people, I think they're just pessimistic, and unrealistic.
