10 Drivers You're Bound To Meet On The Highway
Express.com

It's that time again: time to merge onto the interstate and head to wherever Siri is screaming at you to go. There are possibilities as to what lies ahead on your journey, but one thing is certain: you're going to spy a lot of different drivers...some good, some netural, but mostly bad.

1. The Speed Demon

These are the people who are the type who will fly by you despite the fact that you're already going 10 miles over the speed limit. The sign says 70? Obviously that's just a suggestion, I think they meant 95...at least.


2. The Social Butterfly

Everyone's guilty of this at some point, but these are the people whose social life can't hold off until they arrive at their destination. Sure, Mom called. Answer it, whatever. But your bestie can wait, she'll live, I promise. Be mindful of the other drivers around you—that text/tweet/status/selfie can wait. This is especially annoying in stop-and-go traffic when everyone's nerves are already on edge. Like come on, we don't want to wait another three hours to get to our destination because of another accident.


3. The Secret Alcoholic

Oh you know the type, the jerks who can't figure out which lane they want to be in so they either take control of the road and swerve into each lane and even off road until they make up their mind orrrr, better yet, ride in the middle of the road where no one can pass them because it's now their road. Jerks, you're not fooling anyone, you might as well be chugging a bottle of Jack while choosing your damn lane.

4. The A**hole

These people are just trying to piss other drivers off. They'll cut you off in a heartbeat and make you look like the one at fault. Not to mention, they'll also probably slow down while they're at it. Or they'll pop their brakes randomly when there's absolutely no reason for it. They're just asking to get hit. A**holes are just terrible people. Like seriously, can you not?


5. The Soccer Mom

DVD player on? Check. All seats occupied by children? Check. Baby on board sticker on the window? Check. Drives exactly the speed limit? Ugh. Check. What we have here is the classic "soccer mom."

6. The Aggressive

I believe we are all the aggressive driver at some point (if not all of the time). These are the drivers who will honk a horn and flip you off in a heartbeat if you do anything as much as look at them wrong. Extra points if they have the windows rolled down and are yelling expletives too.

Similar to the a**hole and speed demon, they also don't mind pissing off other drivers and flying around them if they believe the car in front of them is driving far too slow. Extra points if they turn and give you a look of disgust as they go by.

7. The Face-Stuffer

These are the people who eat or drink while they drive. I must say, I applaud you if you are able to do this. Especially those who drive a manual. I can barely eat fries and drive at the same time, much less consume a full meal and drink and ice cream to top it all off. Bravo, face-stuffers, bravo.

8. The Performer

These are the drivers who tend to blare their music and, not just sing along to it, no. These drivers will scream the lyrics as well as dance along to it...while driving. Also can be known as the "Obnoxious," if it's horrendous enough.

9. The Vaper

Driving down the road and all of sudden your car is surrounded in a cloud of smoke...no, it's not fog. A wild Vaper has appeared. That car in front of you has smoke billowing from it? Don't worry, it's just coming out from the windows...well, hopefully.

We get it, bro, you vape.

10. The Chill

Lastly, the drivers I admire the most. These people are just chill, no matter what. They don't get angry or upset during their journey. Their music isn't obnoxiously loud. They're just trying to get to their destination and not worrying about the other drivers' attitudes. They're so easy-going. They don't drive turtle slow, but they also don't drive at break-neck speeds. They're just...well...chill, which is extremely hard to do since driving can get nerve-wracking and anger-inducing. You, my friend, are awesome.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.

The dynamics of any friend group are usually determined by the personalities which make it up. Chances are, while personalities may overlap, each person in your friend group holds his or her own place. It is the differences which bring the groups together and keep them functioning. No matter how functionally dysfunctional your friend group may be, if you're anything like me, you feel absolutely blessed to have found such a wonderful group of humans to call "your people." Here is what your friend group might look like if they were Disney princesses (and that wasn't just a thing you all pretended in your heads):
