More irresponsible than Nissan Altima or Dodge Ram owners isn't easy

Most deadly to driver is not the same thing as most deadly. SUVs are usually extremely deadly to pedestrians and other road users.

As an SUV driver in Appalachia, I’ve mostly only injured pedestrians.

Anecdotal, I know. I’ve only killed 2 people. What’s the average?

Now I won’t sleep for fear of jinxing myself.

Being human is stupid.

Obviously you’re kidding. You said you drive in Appalachia. Yet, you are so clearly a seal. Driving by the beach, okay maybe I could see that, but mountains? Is there even anything for seals to do in Appalachia?

Why do you think I’m so angry? I’ve never even seen the ocean!

[–] cafeinux@infosec.pub 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Am I being wooshed, and if no, wtf? When did killing even one person become an "only" occurrence?

My wife mowed down this guy once in downtown ottawa. We still have the commemorative dent on the hood :)

Altima owners

...This is a stereotype I've never heard before.
