Everyone likes to get reactions out of people. I find its one of the most effective ways of getting what you want. You say whatever you need to say to get a persons position on something. Then judging by their reactions you make your decision/move. The catch is you cant be afraid to put yourself out there for a bit in order to gauge a response. Afterward you can just take back all that you said to repair the damage.
There's also times where you can say or tell anything to someone and you don't care what their reaction is. Maybe that person will always be a friend and forgiving. For example if you tell someone off cause you get upset but you know that eventually they will forgive you, there is nothing you could say to get rid of them.
There's also times where a person just annoys you so you say all the stuff you know they don't want to hear to annoy them back. Personally I find this a waste of time and I usually find we cut these people from out lives but at times they come back because people love it. hahah, ok maybe they dont. There's a certain type of person that has to be on good terms with everyone so they always try to be friends with you. But like water and oil some people just dont mix.
Point is there is alot of way to manipulate words to manipulate people.

“A great social success is a pretty girl who plays her cards as carefully as if she were plain.”
Today the bus driver on the shuttle bus got mad at this kid cause he had a coffee on the bus. He then proceeded to stuff about ten people infront of that yellow line noone is supposed to be infront of, now that, is dangerous. Anyhow there was one girl in the middle of the crowd of people who had nothing to hold onto so this guy grabbed her and started holding her arm so she wouldn't fall suddenly, that was okay.
I guess when people are so close they can practically kiss then somehow talking just comes easy. It's probably not a good idea to get within inches of someone you don't know to strike up a conversation but the idea that people bond in hard times has always amazed me. I truly believe people prefer to be in a state of drama at all times.
There something about disaster, or lesser hard times that breaks down all the rules of our tendency to not talk to random people. Its okay though, alot of people from non American cultures say that its so hard to talk to people here cause were not very open to it. Maybe people from other cultures are more crammed into society? All this space in Canada is making us unsociable.

Drivers Education
Apparently im a terrible driver. I thought I was pretty good but my sister tells me Im bad. It seems like every time I drive someones honking or getting mad.
Honestly there is way too many grey areas when it comes to the driving rules.
Just today I decided to cross the intersection on yellow, not exceptionally fast, there was traffic, but enough room on the other side for me. A bus driver come up beside my car and started like pointing and shaking his head. It made me feel so bad. Yellow means Red is coming; so make up your mind!
Anyway I felt really bad but honestly there are COPS to make me feel bad I dont need bus drivers bothering me too. A lady, yesterday, honked at me cause I turned onto the road as she was coming down, she had her flicker on; indicating she was turning onto my street,but no! She turned like five streets after!? You cant do that I should have honked at her!
So I decide maybe ill be more careful. I was waiting to turn but there was oncoming traffic like 20 cars passing, taking longer than usual. A few times there was a moment wher ei could have sped through but maybe they'd hit me and honk so I waited.The guy behind me gets mad cause its taking me too long so he speeds around me aggressively! So I dont know?! Do you be ruthless when you drive or do you be courteous, seems like both get you in trouble. I hate driving sometimes.
