Husband
Dan was having trouble controlling his road venom today. *cackle* He likes to preach long complicated sermons to me about what traffic violations are going on around me. I listen and nod and smile and pretend to write down good points. As long as he's explaining it all to me, he isn't getting out of the car and beating some unsuspecting person into paste. They might have just been thinking about something else, you know, besides strictly adhering to traffic rules. It happens. Anyway today he said:
Him: I just wish I had a consideration bat, so that I could beat some consideration into everyone I meet.
Me: Isn't beating someone with a bat sort of the opposite of considerate?
I think the "Consideration Bat" could be one of the most paradoxical objects ever to be imagined by a man in a minivan.

giggle! i have a friend whose husband talks about beating people with a stick. my friend always thought this was a sort of proverbial stick. but no, there is a stick in the car. hmmm, as i write this, it sounds really bad. but they don't use it. he just likes knowing it's there. does that sound better? i don't know.
