What's made you grumpy today?

I got bored following a member of the F.A.R.T. brigade back from work and did some maths. When I drive to and from work and happen everyonce in a while by the grace of god not to get stuck behind one of these spawns of satan it takes me about 17 minutes to go from doorstep to parked up and vice versa (This only happens if you've prayed to all known deities and sacrificed a goat and some virgins to some unknown ones or have started your journey after 10pm as there all in bed by then). Now when I get stuck behind someone doing 35-40 in the 60 zones all the way to work it takes 21 minutes or so. Thats 4 minutes difference, so 8 minutes a day, 5 days a week for a year thats 2088 minutes of my life gone or 34.8 hours. So thanks to these people my life is shorter each year by a day and a half. You then multiply that by a 30 year driving career not that I plan to do the same commute forever but as exercise in bored maths...it comes out at 43.5 days following a small diesel city car.
