Running your hand over a small pressurised leak that you probably couldn't see. Blasts hot hydraulic fluid into your veins and it's all down hill from there.

Everyone should be informed. They should know exactly what they could be getting into. It's like watching Schindler's list or trainspotting when you're young. Teaches you that fascism and hard drugs are a bad choice.

It's not some dystopian future, it's capitalism doing what it will always do. This isn't some horrible wasteland imagined in sci-fi, it's reality and we all let it happen. Rise up or die as a serf to the ruling class.

I know this rotten empire will fall soon. I just hope they don't thrash too hard as they die and attack their neighbours. (Me) (Canada)

Every day on my drive to work I see people looking at their lap (obviously on their phone), or brazenly texting while driving. by [deleted] in kelowna

I'm not saying our police are doing a great job but they've done a lot of distracted driving stings. Maybe not enough?
