The Murphy's Law of Driving
1) The car infront of you is always slower.
2) The car in back of you always wants to go faster.
3) There is never traffic until you start to back out of your driveway.
4) There is never traffic until you reach the stop sign.
5) When you are in a hurry, everyone is on a joy ride.
6) When you are looking for an address, everyone is in a hurry.
7) Bugs, salt, and other grime on the windshield are attracted to the area directly infront of your line of sight.
8) If a car in the other lane is hovering between you and the car infront of you, he wants to switch, even though...
9) Turn signals (blinkas) are never used.
10) Your exit is 3 lanes to the right, and about 200 feet away.

And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Get the drivingmug. A now obselete insult used by fans of the New York Yankees. Prior to the 2004 World Series, the Red Sox had not won a World Series since 1918. Some say that the Red Sox trading Babe Ruth so that the owner could fund a broadway play was the cause of a curse, which ended the Red Sox dynasty of the early 20th century, and would cause them to lose when they DID reach the World Series. The same people who thought up this 'curse' crap also wear tinfoil hats to protect against government mind control satellites.
Unfortunately for Yankees fans, they will have to think up a more unique insult to cheer at Red Sox-Yankees games at the Stadium, because with the departure of Pedro Martinez, the 'Whos Your Daddy' chant has lost it's meaning.

Yankees Fan: 1918! 1918!
Red Sox Fan: 2004! 2004! The year we won again, and the Yankees performed the biggest choke in the history of sports!
Yankees Fan: DOH! Oh well, you won't win next year since The Boss is going to cake over our multi-million dollar roster with an even MORE multi-million dollar roster, further ruining what little chemistry our all-star team has!

Get the 1918mug. On the highway, with more congested (but not traffic jam) hours with lots of cars, a lane shield is the car hovering next to you while you are trying to get into their lane. Sometimes this is even intentional by the driver because they feel you may be trying to cut them off. Usually they will tailgate the vehicle in front of them so that you have to brake hard or speed up infront of them both to get into their lane.

Get the lane shieldmug. The result of tailgating. The driver who is being tailgated slams his brakes, usually randomly, to spook the tailgater. They have a 'contest' to see who ends up skidding further.
Hmm, that guy is still riding up my tail. Whoa, is that a kid about to see jump onto the street? *slam* *screeeech*

Get the skid contestmug. A Mexican liquor that is close cousin to the more famous Tequila. Mezcal is usually stronger, and is known for it's trademark worm which is placed in the bottle. The worm's preservation in the bottle is, according to legend, a sign of high proof in the liquor. Many fraternities believe that eating the worm (which, unlike the liquid it's found in, is relatively harmless) is a right of passage. High quality brands of Mezcal rarely carry the worm.

Get the mezcalmug. Not to be confused with the lightning rod, and usually involving more than one other car, a speed team is a group of drivers who speed on the left lane of the highway during long road trips. Usually hardened road warriors will know that the more cars that are speeding together, the less likely a state police car will pull them over, as long as they are going at a reasonable speed (80 on a 65 posted).
Called a 'team' because, if a slower float is in the left lane, they'll often all pass it on the right together. Speed teammates rarely even know each other, and more often than not the team will eventually break up when one leaves the highway.

1) Those frostbacks are so stupid they think THEY burnt the White House in 1812 in place of the British.
2) My doctor is a frostback.. He had to leave Canada because Canada can't afford to pay their professionals enough.
