Anon is a squirrel

Except for the driving part but it's all relative

[–] rtxn@lemmy.world 12 points 3 days ago

Pretty sure most squirrels are also terrible drivers.

[–] nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 16 points 3 days ago

That's also what I read from that.

If you almost get into an accident, you have encountered a bad driver.

If you get into an accident almost every time, you are the bad driver.

Survivorship bias gonna' bite him in the ass HARD.

[–] Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world 15 points 3 days ago

Unless it doesn't. I've met some cocky 90 year olds

[–] Excrubulent@slrpnk.net 13 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Every single person who ever lived could use this logic and they'd never see it disproven.

[–] MotoAsh@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I dunno', quite a few people are aware that they're dying before they die.

[–] Excrubulent@slrpnk.net 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Oh I do know about that, I've had a near death experience myself, your body/brain has an uncanny sense that says "you are dangling over the precipice right now."

I just mean that until it actually happens, there is no true confirmation, and after, you can't report back, that's why it's called a mystery.

In fact from the way that person is talking it sounds like they may have had such an experience, and maybe now they're doubting that it's real.

Did the experience leave you any belief in the afterlife

[–] Excrubulent@slrpnk.net 2 points 57 minutes ago

Not by itself no, but it was a vector to be indoctrinated into a strong belief in a christian afterlife at a very young age.

I no longer hold any of those beliefs. I now think that existence ex-nihilo and creation by something outside of the natural universe are two equally absurd possibilities, and science is fundamentally incapable of resolving that question.

I have certainly had odd, even otherworldly experiences, but I couldn't say what any of them meant or if they mean anything at all. I am deeply suspicious of anyone that claims to have the answers.

Given enough time on the planet eventually he'll gain so much power that he will be able to spell.

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 13 points 3 days ago

fake: anon is just a shitty driver

gay: anon is bragging in hopes to score with other anons

[–] tyler@programming.dev 21 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Immortal means you can’t die, or alternatively you can’t die of natural causes. It doesn’t mean you avoid accidents.

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

But then there's quantum immortality which kinda is like that. Your consciousness picks a universe where you don't die for you to experience. Maybe it even picks an ideal reality, though in a "reality I need" kind of way, not necessarily a "reality I want".

[–] QueenHawlSera@sh.itjust.works 1 points 9 hours ago

When does it pick one where Heaven is real

[–] Apeman42@lemmy.world 17 points 3 days ago

Anon discovers quantum immortality, blows through alternate selves faster than Jet Li.

Anon needs to post dashcam footage

Bought a crazy eScooter last year, literally backflipping me on zero start if I don't set the take off power to below 10%. Have at least one brush with severe injury every time I go for a joyride. Nearly died a couple of times, had a accident that put me on crutches for two weeks last autumn.

So, what's your hobby?
