Things that shouldn't be...

So I was reading Mighty Dyckerson's Mighty Blog and came across a his post about people being sports car pussies and it brought back an experience of things that shouldn't be.

This happened when I lived in St. Paul. I was coming home from work at Best Buy and I saw a brand new, totally pimped out 2000 Ford Mustang (this was back in 2000, that's why 2000 Mustang is new). I mean this bastard had 17 inch rims, dark tinted windows, the entire 'I wish I was black so I could be cool' package. She was a GT, 5.0 liter engine, a car that could easily do 0-1,000 in a little over a nanosecond.

I pull up beside the car to get a better look. The windows were down so I looked over and into the car.

I then proceeded to poop myself.

In the drivers seat was this old lady who couldn't have been any less than 85 years old. She was a blue wig and a skeleton with some skin attached. The light turns green and she proceeds to move this work of art 25 MPH down Snelling Avenue (which if I recall correctly is a 45 zone).

I didn't even think the car could idle that slowly, much less move at that speed.

I drove beside her for a moment, screaming at her, telling her that God will be angry at her for not using his greatest creation to do what it was made to do.

Go fast!

If I would have car jacked her, and left her my Contour, the police wouldn't have filed charges against me. In fact, I am pretty sure that I could have brought charges against her with The Hague for crimes against humanity for treating that poor car in such a shabby way.

Anyway, the point of the post is one of the things in life that shouldn't be is old women/men driving fast cars. Feel free to add to the list of things that shouldn't be!
