Uncalled for
I think religious people are all right, I'm not going to rant about them if they don't give me any bother. But anyone or anything proclaiming some new-agey 'embrace God, God is love' message is almost guaranteed to set me off, especially if it's being crammed in my face like a delicious butter-cookie-and-hazelnut-chocolate treat. Consider it a character flaw.

Not to get too far off the point...

I was driving merrily down the freeway, blasting obnoxious power metal - yes, summer holiday was in full swing and I was en route to sit around, watch tv and play games all day until my brain melted out my ears. I glanced up at the overpass idly as one does when one needs something to focus your eyes on for a moment, and what did I happen to see?

A bus parked on the curb reading 'Jesus is our Lord, not a swear word'.

My completely natural reaction was of course to shriek 'Jesus Christ!' and nearly kill myself swerving the car closely into other cars for a few seconds until I could calm my impotent rage.

Jesus buses - not big (waitaminute) or clever.
