I find it irritating too. I think people do it just in case the person doesn't notice. I've even posted that before, because I thought it was standard procedure now. I always notice a PM almost immediately.

I've had a few good ones over the last week, but don't remember them. Basically, if you're crossing a street while NOT in a cross walk, hurry the fuck up! If you HIT someone who is crossing the street (or in ANY situation), pull over. If you flee the scene, you are the biggest piece of shit. I think a guy was killed at Colfax and Kendall two weekends ago because of this.

If your son is in high school, he is old enough to call for Roadside Assistance all by himself. I don't need BOTH parents, on the same line, at the same time, saying different things. When I suggest that I just call your kid directly, and you answer, "Well, he won't answer a number he doesn't recognize." Then all three of you have failed at life. Don't expect him to ever get a job, or even a girlfriend.

Oh yeah, and if you are flying through the parking lot of an apartment complex, and you have to jam on the brakes to avoid flying out into the street (where I have the unquestioned right of way), and I happen to wave at you in thanks for not recklessly involving me in a head-on collision.....don't you dare fucking flip me off.
