I.o.w.a.

Wish this acronym had not been taken by the state of Iowa. It sums up all the IdiotsOutsideWanderingAround attempting to use steering wheels while trying to pass themselves off as drivers here.
I feel very thankful that I made it through the holiday season.

I think it's some kind of joke. Bad performance art or something. They must have imported 50K actors to drive like test dummys. Unless they are using real idiots.

People say I'm anti-social.
Really - I'm just trying to survive.
Everyday on Rt.235 increases my chances of dying.

Every day you wake up increases your chances of dying.

What does Iowa use the acronym for?

True.

However driving on Rt. 235 doubles that. If I stay home, I live longer.

Themselves.
A guy from Iowa told me the joke years ago. I remembered it the other day as I almost got my butt run over walking on the sidewalk, then when a mini van from Virginia edged through the intersection between Target and PETCO while I was heading to 235, then as the color blind driver blew the red light at Old Rolling Road. I sort of lost track after that.
The joke made me smile.
