Forget it! Just be yourself. It's natural to be intolerant of idiots! It's not like you're offending them or something, because....well...they're IDIOTS! If you force yourself to tolerate something you don't like it will end up eating you up inside and you'll end up taking it out on people you don't mean to. As far as driving is concerned, the people around you are stuck in the same traffic and are just as aggravated as you are. If someone cuts in front of you, it is probably because they are frustrated because no one had the courtesy to let them in. Stuff like that doesn't bother me. Where I have a problem is when someone flips me the bird or leans on their horn. I always end up dragging them from their car and stomping a mudhole in them. I don't think people should do this unless they are physically capable of kicking my ass. I can't, of course, stomp a woman, but I usually leave them scared to death and crying their eyes out before I get back in my truck and leave. If I gave this up for Lent I would walk around in a pissed off mood all the time and wouldn't be able to digest my food properly. Why don't you just give up chocolates?

Ya do it, it isn't worth the aggravation to fight them, and you're a much bigger person than I.

It sounds like an excellent plan in the scheme of things. It is much closer to the spirit of Lent than most of the things I have heard lately.
