Ugh

1) Hate everyone right now. EVERYONE. Except for my sketchy NCIS DVDs, maybe. They aren't technically people, but they are something that I don't hate right now, which is something they have on the REST OF THE WORLD.

2) Massachusetts roads seem as though they were designed by drunken monkeys. I wish I were kidding right now.

3) Can we skip the part where we let everyone operate very expensive heavy machinery in public places and just switch to robot cars like the kind they had in Minority Report? I would approve of such things.

3) That would be the best thing ever, or at least second only to flying bisons.

JUST IMAGINE TRAFFIC JAMS BEING HANDLED BY SKYNET INSTEAD OF A BUNCH OF AUTONOMOUS AGENTS WITH INCOMPLETE INFORMATION. I AM SERIOUSLY DROOLING HERE.

Also, I could accept flying bisons as another alternative.

Speaking as an MA native, I can assure that the roads were in fact planned by injured or hungry deer, who are nearly as bad drunken monkeys but much more likely to keep all feet on the ground at all times. This was the only wisdom that was applied to the road-making plans.

See, I would have said cows. Also a Mass native. \o/

[kitewithfish]

I think that deer paths were there first because deer were there first (tho, deer are notoriously bad at clearing paths)- Native people follow the deer path, eventual Whites follow the Native-made trails, and eventually drive cows down them, making them wider, but still ridiculously curvy.

Don't even get me started on Route 9.

Hail, fellow Bay Stater! :D

The sad fact is that this is true.

Also, I feel bad that we haven't spoken since you (Parrot) got back. I believe this should be fixed.

[thedeadparrot]

Yes, it is.

Also, we should fix this. Hit me up on IM when you can.

Ahahaha, yeah. I did manage to notice that there were not, in fact, any routes that took us up any trees, for which I am eternally grateful.
