    >That is so hilarious! And so true. Your post on poop was right on funny! I do believe I’ve experienced most if not all of those poopie types…

    >Why do you think we SAHMs all drive big SUVs? So we can run down ANYONE who screws with us! HA! Hilarious post, but I hope you helped that poor guy without a helment out of the tree.My son now, when he thinks someone has cut us off or is going too slow, will yell out, “What is your PROBLEM?” I wonder where he got that? (grin)

  3. >Steph, Steph, Steph, why would I interrupt my road rage fantasy to help the guy up?! Nope, he just sat there alone, rubbing his noggin and thinking “Damn soccer mom! Share the road!”

  4. Theresa says:

    >Is it revealing that my kids will say, “hey lady, the gas is on the right!” when they think we are going too slow?

  5. _ says:

    >Huh, all that road rage must come with them big ol’ SUVs y’all buy. Or y’all must be super-peeved at the crazy prices you gotta pay to feed that gas-guzzla you got! This is one SAHM that is slow, patient and polite behind the wheel! Must be cuz I’m a really horrible driver and I know if I piss with someone they can make me swerve into oncoming traffic without even flashing a blinker at me.(Let alone a horn or single-finger-wave.)

  6. >Several men who do a lot of driving told me that the meanest drivers are women with soccer stickers on their vehicles.(I slapped on two when I heard that.)

  7. MistressMary says:

    >The poor mommies. Maybe they need more sex or something.

  8. Vanessa says:

    >I love this! Poor fellow on his bike, though. That’ll teach him to ride around where there are Savage Mommies on the loose!

    >Hello, Michele sent me! I was just thinking of the time the President ran into a tree on His bike… and I was wondering if I needed to call the Secret Service! 🙂

    >OMG… Great writing! I so understand. Truly.– Michele sent me! And, I’ll be back. Thanks for the great post.

  11. Raehan says:

    >LOL on the silent scream. This is very funny.

  12. Indigo says:

    >LOL! That’s too funny. I hate driving sometimes, the rudeness is apalling.

  13. utenzi says:

    >Michele sent me, Lucinda.Your humorous post has a lot of truth in it. It’s certainly been my experience that the kid-loaded cars are the ones that do the most unexpected things and that are the most aggressive, often in circumstances that normally would preclude that sort of behavior by reasonable adults.Some say we should ban cell phones in cars. I say we ban soccer moms–present company excluded. Of course.

    >oh to have been a fly on the roof of your suv – lol. i’ll be back! came by way of michele. 🙂

    >LOL!Yeah, I’ve said the same thing crazy momcat did about all of us Suburban moms being in big SUVs, too.Last week a really meanie-faced (my kids’ term) SUV-driving Mom would NOT let me merge into the lane in front of her. I had plenty of room to get in and NEEDED to get in before my lane narrowed to being closed due to construction. I put my left blinker on and started to make my way into her lane in front of her and she SPED UP to try to cut me off. This woman was going to make me eat orange pylons? What was her problem? Well, I sped up faster and got in. This really ticked her off, apparently, because I could see her doing all kinds of sign language in my rear view mirror. I laughed a little because I mean, come on, it’s 8am and she’s already too stressed out by the world. It’s ONE FREAKING CAR in front of her that she had to let in. Why is that so hard? She doesn’t own the road. Jeez. My kids turned around and I said, “No, don’t look at her!, Just ignore her, we’re fine.” So the right lane opens back up a couple blocks further and sure enough she jumps out into it, goes speeding past me (going a good 20 mph above the speed limit, WITH her own kids in the car) and honks her horn for a solid 5 seconds at me. As she passed I shook my head and simply said “Oh, like your horn scares me! You should be the one scared by your own driving!”My kids thought that was the funniest thing ever. For 3 days they kept repeating my comeback. I just don’t understand why it’s so hard to be kind. JUST BE KIND and let people into the lane. We are all travelling inside LETHAL WEAPONS. Cars are dangerous. People in them who are driving in those kinds of road-rage moods are dangerous. Moms are the most dangerous ones I’ve seen. Most definitely.

    >i love this post! i’ve been on the receiving end of those type of moms one too often… to think my husband thinks i drive too fast.

  17. >So funny – so true. Our kids are quickly learning that swearing is rude and wrong – except when it’s done by their parents in the car.
