On my way to work this morning, I was a red light. Per usual, I was adrift in mental fogginess, due to the fact i was up late and the Mountain Dew hadn't yet kicked in. Light turned green, and I hadn't moved. Car behind me honks, I go, as I say some expletive or another. That got me thinking what we can tell about a person by the way they honk their horn.

Out of all the things one can tout as an accomplishment, being cooler than Mor, falls in between successfully working a zipper and a bathroom session where your finger doesn't rip through the paper.opfinistic and Rocky Raccoon like this.

One of these days, someone might call you on that finger, hope you are willing to back it up.
knowing you, you would just pop off a good joke and all would end with a good laugh.:wink2:opfinistic likes this. -
