When ur in the slow lane and there is absolutely no one behind you, but the person pulling out on to the highway just decides to cut you off anyway [sm=icon_stickpoke.gif]. Or when people do something wrong but give YOU the finger anyway [sm=nono.gif]. Put the two together and you have some roadrage [sm=violent053.gif][sm=shootshoot.gif]

What is with Pittsburg...it has it's own dialect....and sentence structures that work there, work no where else.

example...If I looked at a lawn that was overgrown, with tall grass I would say...That lawn needs to be mowed.
In Pittsburg they would say...That lawn needs mowed....
