Judging by the traffic on the road, everyone else had the same afterthoughts as I. That is, "Holy shit, I don't have presents for everyone yet."
This sport of last minute shopping is rated on 2 different aspects.
1) Driving skill. Points will be awarded from greatest to least following this list: parking at green lights, parking in the middle of busy intersections, hitting a parked car, cutting me off, meanderous driving, no or incorrect use of turn signal. Additional points are awarded for talking on a cell phone, or yelling at children while accomplishing your transportational goals.
2) Oblivity. From greatest to least again: hitting me with your shopping cart, swiping me with your shoulder, cutting in line in front of me, knocking down or otherwise destroying retail displays, leaving your shopping cart parked behind my car. "Combos" such as swiping me with your shopping card and tossing me into a display of beer bottles that shatter and sent me to the emergency room also land you with extra points.
Merry Christmas! Try to get enough points to get to level two! Get the power-up and win!
