F'd Up Sight of the Day
Driving (well, riding in Rich's truck) up Route 128 (major state highway linked with I-95) during rush hour, we observed a driver reading a book. Specifically a paperback novel held between her hands, which appeared to be situated at 10 and 2 on the steering wheel.
Driver (noun): One who operates a motor vehicle
Rush hour (noun): Busy-ass time of day on roads or public transit
Book (noun): Something that should be read when one is not DRIVING!!!!!
WTF is wrong with people? I'm quite the bookworm myself. I read at home, at other people's homes, on the T, in cafes, in bookstores, in libraries, even in food courts full of screaming toddlers... but I don't read while I'm driving. Because I value my life and the lives of those around me.

That's absurd! Who on earth thinks that's a good idea? That's just an accident waiting to happen. No question.
