philly rolling stop 

while doing 40 to 50 mph down small one way philly streets filled with crackheads and shoeless children you quickly tap the breaks and look both ways without slowing down at the stop signs posted every 40 yards at each intersection in philly. its also a good idea to honk your horn between and during each stop sign to alert children/crackheads/ opposing traffic of your oncoming car. dont worry about cops they do the same thing and dont bother pulling people over for traffic offenses anyway.
hey skip the philly rolling stop at the next sign i gotta dump out this dutchie.
