...and I would REALLY do it.
Here's one that happens to me nearly every time I am ever driving...
Just because you put on your turn signal does NOT mean you have room to move over in front of my car. Or, as I often put it at the time, desire to change lanes does not equal right of way.
: proposed script :
MsRiley/BritishAccent: Yes?
Brice: Um.
MsRiley/BritishAccent: Yes, can I help you?
Brice: Weeelllll.
MsRiley/BritishAccent: Do I know you, sir?
Brice: No, but I'm calling to ask you to please give your daughter her .. :ahem: .. toy back.
Alisha/BritishAccent: Brice? I gotta call you back, my Mum just fainted.

Oh, I just pictured that entire scene in my head, and LOL!!!
Oh, mercy - if you knew my mum, it'd be even funnier.
Time spent with cats is never wasted.
We love you, Kitten!!!
Time to leave the screen on and call Mum over to the computer....
Which brings me back on topic - Just because you walk into my cubicle, that does NOT give you permission to touch, read, move my monitor !

Another one for driving:
If you can't get up to traffic speed before the traffic creams your car from behind or frantically switches lanes to avoid that, then you didn't have enough time to pull out after all.
It'll take a lot more than words and guns,
A whole lot more than riches and muscle.
The hands of the many must join as one.
And together we'll cross the river.

True Woofer, so true.
Of course, it makes me think of this... tailgating me will NOT make me drive faster. If anything, it will make me drive slower on purpose to piss you off.
It's the strangest thing. The closer a car tailgates, the dirtier my windshield becomes and needs an immediate and thorough cleaning.

How's this one...
Just because I have a telephone doesn't mean I want to be marketed to. If you want to sell me something, open a fucking store.
(Can you tell I just got telemarketing call?)
They have stores for that? Where do you live, exactly?!?
( for Jayson and his telephone )

I think I have the granddaddy of them all...
"Did you come?"
Sometimes I'd like to tell this to brother or my mom: "If my phone is ringing and I pick it up and am on it for more than ten seconds it does not automatically mean I'm talking to my girlfriend (which I am lacking anyway) AND even if it was would that be SO horrible that its necessary to verbally attack and tease me about it for 2 days straight? Im almost 20 for fucks sake"
if the worlds gonna end then let's get it over with, i got shit to do
Speaking of driving, do not DRIVE down the turn lane. You're supposed to WAIT until you can get over. If you keep driving, you are basically just riding parallel with traffic, and will never get over. It is NOT a merge lane.
And Brice, if you called my phone and did that, I wouldn't be held responsible for my actions.
Amanda, don't worry I'd leave time for you to get back into your book before I called back...say every two minutes.
Oh, I've got one:
Do NOT park in the left lane of the highway doing 15 MPH under the speed limit, and THEN have the nerve to act annoyed when you get passed on the right! (and, this is a ticketable offense here, but, once again, never a cop around when you need one. Grr)

NH driver, right? See that long pedal on the right? It's the gas, use it.
