I have noticed I am more patient since I don't have to sit in traffic for one hour everyday to commute to work.
I wonder if going back to normal is a problem for some people. We forgot our manners as we didn't have to interact with others.
Please explain. In what way was my statements racist?

I too get annoyed but manage to contain myself. Sometimes laughing at those who show me the finger of respect provides ample retribution. I do take comfort knowing that I am armed and ready at all times, as are many Texans, proving that an armed society is a polite one.

Are you a practitioner of road rage. In the past month have you verbally abused, given obscene gestures, cut off or aggressively tailgated other drivers?
I enjoy being courteous in traffic and being kind to pedestrians. Especially the ladies. I say WOW and smile.
When I pass by the protesters (I live in a college town, and they are allowed to congregate and hold up their signs and vocalize only on the town square) I toot and give them thumbs up. 👍 Even though I'm pretty sure I disagree...
I cannot read their pitiful crude signs scrawled in pencil on a scrap of cardboard but what the heck, those are somebody's children...
In the winter I help push the high school children's cars out of the snowbank by my house because they go too fast on the curve...
And, in the words of Satchmo, I think to myself, what a wonderful world 🌎...

Definitely! Living in Michigan, one sees it frequently. My daughter and her family were vacationing in S. Dakota a few days ago and were caught in a traffic jam in Custer State Park. It seems that a bison exhibited some road rage and butted the side of their van. They were very upset. Witness reports trickling in indicate that the culprit was sporting a Biden-Harris sign. I have been telling my son-in-law for some time that he should remove that Trump sticker from his van. Some people have to learn the hard way.

Of course not. Dems are the ones hiding in their expensive homes in protected neighborhoods with German autos in their driveways, with nannies for the kids not in private school and a live in Oper/maid and a wetback gardener all the while vociferously and ferociously pretending to be for the little immigrant guy.

Aw, Come on. Not pretending at all as they are paying those workers in cash so as to avoid all the taxes and said employees can send more money home to where ever.

This is just a friendly reminder that you are, I hope, going to explain your accusation. Take your time. No hurry. I'll wait.

I'd like to hear the answer to that question myself.

That is one of my favorite songs! The words are happy but the tune is sad. To me it's about the passage of time.

There's nothing wrong with that.

I find it hilarious that his avatar is orange.
"Cockwomble" sound kinda Brit...or Aussie, maybe. Is that Brit slang and if so can you enlighten w/o spending three days in the penalty box for naughty talk?

Its Scottish slang used to describe a person - usually male - prone to making outrageously stupid statements and/or inappropriate behavior while generally having a very high opinion of his own wisdom and importance.

Thank you. I'll add it to my
repertoire if you don't mind.
I know some alien slang but it's a lot coarser.
