Arc of a Driver, Efforttfully

Yes I am riffing on Arc of a Diver (steve winwood).

In one of my friend Jim's more lucid moments, he pointed out with chagrin that drivers seemed to like to signal a right turn, and then arc their car way out leftward... as they make that right turn.  As if somehow simply making the right turn will crush and clip some invisible entity to their right while they turn.

Truly bizarre.

I have seen it. Jim didn't lie.  Somehow people feel safer spending extra time and effort arcing their vehicle outward, way to the left, as they make that right turn.

Or, as I like to say, they are mildly retarded drivers.

Showy Ladies

On a crowded subway car, I ruminate:

the whole theatrical showy lesbian couple thing.

Its a thing. Its right in my face on a crowded subway car, inexcapable.

Hugging and kissing on each other, embracing, intertwining -- dramatically intertwining fingers and tucking arms around waist to indicate affection, ownershiop, 

 somehow commanding attention and announcement.

Super drama and outsized exaggerated showy sharing.  They are like an improv skit performance.
