I once went to a conference as a vendor and they hired a temp to go with us to do a lot of the grunt work and had him drive the van there and back. He would drive under the speed limit in the left lane. When I couldn't take it anymore and finally said something, he said, "I like driving in the left lane!"

They had to practically hold me back from strangling him.

I'm much calmer these days.

I've heard that a society governed purely by logic would be one that never takes emotion into account, one that only sees the cold logic.

That sounds bad. That being said:

We live in a society where people actively enjoy becoming road hazards, subsequently becoming dangerous to others whilst staying relatively safe themselves.

Idk, maybe we meet somewhere in the middle? Cuz I feel like those feelings should not be respected.

Because your wish was granted, right?

He left my presence still breathing, but I assume someone else has strangled him by now.
