     If you indulge in this painful behavior it makes you an idiot. But at least it is something that you do in the privacy of you own home. (Hopefully) I, not having to witness it or even know about it will be best.
     On the other hand many people behave like idiots in public for all of us to see. Some of this behavior makes me shake my head in wonderment, some is down right irritating, and at worst, can cause bodily harm to others.
     The following is a list of idiotic behavior I have witnessed over the years. I am not perfect; if you are offended I apologize because I am an idiot. But, if you have anything to add, be my guest! Idiocy knows no bounds.

•    If you are mean, rude, disrespectful, or think you are a “badass” or a “thug”
•    If you are a thief, drug dealer, back stabber, or have “sucker punched” anybody.
•    If you are a wife beater, child molester, rapist, or pervert.
•    If you think you can get away from the police.

•    If you pass people that are doing the speed limit, whip around them, slam on the breaks for the next stop light.
•    If you tailgate or speed or both.
•    If you wait ‘til the last minute to slam on your breaks, then floorboard it at the green light.
•    If you do any of these things in a lifted truck.
•    If you have $3,000. worth of wheels and tires on a $1,200. car
•    If you have a $2,000. stereo and a swap meet child seat.
•    I like to leave enough room between me and the car in front of me to prevent an accident, if you think this an invitation to cut in front of me.
