Feeling stressed/angry? Diesel fumes found to be cause!

I question the validity of the test and the control group but interesting none the less.

I don't know about that. I've been feeling like that a lot longer than I've had Max . . .

Guess they didn't want to use gasser exhaust in the same study for fear they might kill someone.

Good reason to switch to veggie.
Makes you hungry, not stressed.


(Or follow a woman's logic here. . .)
Driving on veggie makes you hungry.
You eat.
You gain weight.
You get stressed cuz you're now FAT.
So I guess veggie can make you stressed too.
But it smells better. . .

Would take a much lesser concentration of gasoline exhaust to do the job.

Idiots that get in my way anger me far more. Like the lady today who couldn't figure out which one of three lanes she wanted to be in, so she took them all which was amazing I didn't think a car could do that. Made me miss the green light so I had to sit for another cycle, for NO GD REASON. This is why I would love to drive a Humvee or tank, I just would have driven over her.

It seems like I remember a similar result in an experiment involving a room filled with flatulating people!
So don't jog down a city street and don't fart while wearing a full diving wet suit.......

WARNING! Fumes emitted by diesel fuel is addictive and causes you to spend large sums of money on diesel powered vehicles until your income is wiped out. The "anger" factor is a byproduct caused by the rising cost of diesel fuel, repair parts, special tools, and the stress of the related maintenance and care of these vehicles.
I is so addictive they even have a Diesel cologne!
Please quite now while you still have some money left and your family still loves you! You could end up homeless and be found hanging around truck stops or street corners just to get a whiff of diesel.
JUST SAY NO! While you still can.
For those who cannot say no; I will see you at the pump when I get my fix.
