For driving buying cigarettes, fitting in

How cool is this?

Also, pace a decade's worth of stand-up jokes, the DMV is a much smoother bureaucracy than the New School or my stupid, stupid bank, or t-mobile. See, when I say I hate bureaucracy, what I really mean is that I am a bureaucracy conoisseur. It's an anarchist thing (read: organized, just not hierarchical).

That is AWESOME!!! But out of all the cool stuff in that post what I want to know most is: How did you cross out the word driving??? It's the little things that drive me nuts...

And if you had an unlimited grocery fund I would visit and never leave! It's God's practical joke for me to have been born here. I was so meant to travel the world ordering room service and then return to my NY apartment and have my groceries delivered every week. That shouldn't be a luxury it should be a neccessity (I think I spelled that wrong).

Did they test you to ensure you drive like an NYC cabbie in order to qualify? Dad

Was rolling down your window, extending your arm and raising your middle finger part of the exam?

Bureaucracy will turn anyone into an anarchist.

I keep replaying that scene in my head, but WTF movie was that again?

Christian said...

Truck Driver: [shouts] Ya dumb broad!
Driving instructor: All right, Stephanie, gently extend your arm. Extend your middle finger. Very good. Well done.

I'll give you a hint: Frank Drebin.

Anybody?

Okay, another demonstration of how starved for brain stimulation I really am...

I had to google Frank Drebin. It was eating me up inside. Is your quote a Police Squad thing or something from the Naked Gun movies? Either which way, not the brain stimulation I was shooting for. Yes, I would call it insipid and not really inspired. For more explanation on choice of words, see http://www.geocities.com/WestHollywood/1018/policesquad/index.html

The guy who runs the above site needs a girlfriend.

I guess in Christian's defense, Aaron loves those movies too. What is with you guys?
