Friends, what kind of car do you drive?
Because I'm thinking if I have a list of "friends cars" in my head (please be specific: color/make/model/bumper stickers/state of registration), instead of being mad at a driver (in a red/Honda/Civic/with a Red Sox bumper sticker/and Massachusetts plates) who cuts me off on the highway (we're in a construction area for crying out loud!), I can wave and say, "After you, my friend!"
This would replace my terribly bad habit of calling the driver of such a car one of my preferred names such as douche or loser. For a time, I would try to interrupt myself and say, "Do---" or "Lo--". It wasn't long before I began singing the syllables to the melody of the Sting song: "Do, do, do; lo, lo, lo..."
Can you help me sing a new song?
Interesting idea.
ReplyDeleteI have a black 2000 Honda Civic LX. MA plates. No bumper stickers, but I should take a few old parking stickers off.
I never gave this particular car a nickname. Oh well. I like it, though.
But I would never cut you off unless I was panicked and didn't know where I was going! :-)
Let us know how the new song goes!
I will never swear at a black Honda Civic. ;)
