did i miss something?

seriously - did i miss the day when all of the rules of driving changed? is the left-most lane no longer the fast lane? when did it become the "distracted driving" lane? when did it become the cell-phone-talking-child-wrangling-dog-petting-cd-changing-shaving-putting-on-mascara lane? and when did it become okay to toss your lit cigarette butts out the window? (okay, really, i respect your right to cultivate lung cancer in yourself and those closest to you, and have bad breath and stinky clothes and yellow fingers, but, really - do you have to litter, too? i mean, i like to drink coffee, but i don't just toss a mostly empty starbucks cup out of my window while i'm at a stoplight)

and what the hell is the deal with all the celebrities complaining about being celebrities? britney spears and lindsay lohan releasing singles about how beleagured they are by paparazzi and tabloids. i know that everyone bitches about their job, but come on - if you're a freaking celebrity and you make trillions of dollars an hour - shut the fuck up, smile for the paparazzi and sulk all the way to the bank, okay?
