Stupid When Wet

Rain in Los Angeles.

Watch as the already challenged driving IQs of all L.A. residents plummet to new depths.

I imagine the thought process to go a little something like this: Huh? What? Oh no! Water! Falling from the sky! Brain...must...stop...working! Ahhhhhhhh!

  • I just feel bad for all these people because rain is probably the most exciting weather condition they'll ever drive in. They'll never have the fun of driving on an icy road as the wipers freeze to the windshield and the headlights barely work because they're covered in snow. Now THAT'S good times!

  • Hey! Sometimes we get high pollen counts and rainbows! How do you like them forces of nature?!

  • Pollen count? Bitch please! My allergies were so bad in Mass. that I had to stuff my pockets with tissues every time I left the house. Here, I go years without even buying a box of kleenex. Your L.A. pollen count is like a little tiny bunny, and I'm this bear with giant claws and I'm like, how am I going to kill this bunny?

  • Whatever! Supreme weather is the reason we can afford to simultaneously talk on the phone, drink coffee, put make up on/shave, do the crossword, sing along to music and drive like maniacs instead of having to get up early to put chains on our tires, chisel ice off the car and squeegee the crap out of the windshield and still not be able to see shit.

    Bragging about your allergy related tissue count is hardly the stuff giant clawed bears are made of!

    I'm the fucking bear here!

  • No, you can't drive like maniacs here. We can drive like maniacs in Boston because we know what the hell we're doing. You people do it and you end up with flipped-over cars and 2-hour delays on the 405.

    And nobody puts chains on their tires in the northeast. Chains are for wusses. We just have snow tires, and by the way, chiseling ice off the windshield in the morning just gives the heater in your car enough time to defrost the steering wheel so you can actually touch it.

  • Yeah, yeah. Go pour some salt on your driveway!

    By Blogger Eti, at 12:17 PM  

  • Well, shit! I would, but my whole container of salt is empty and someone left tongue marks on the cannister! That's the last time I let you send me to the Apple Store while you podcast in my apartment!

  • It's time to plead the fifth.
