blugu64 posted:Like when you're a few car lengths behind and suddenly the car in front of you swerves to avoid an object/debris on the road that you don't know about? Have you ever driven on an interstate before because it sounds like you haven't. I have a 30 mile commute, of which about a half mile is not urban or suburban interstate. Turns out that much interstate driving teaches you how to be aware of what's happening beyond the bumper of the vehicle immediately in front of you, as well as how to adjust your following distance and positioning within traffic based on how well you can or cannot see what's happening ahead. I eagerly look forward to the day when every car on the road has that degree of - or really, even better - awareness. The taste of unbelievably stupid poo poo human drivers do that that commute gives me on a daily basis is a big driver in my desire to get humans out from behind the wheel as soon as possible. Anyway, Edit: I realize that sounded super . I'm not trying to claim I'm some god of driving or anything, just that it's really unusual for there to be poo poo on the road with absolutely no way to tell until the vehicle right in front of you reacts. There's always stuff happening further ahead that can clue you in to it, and if not it means that traffic is light enough that you can actually keep a decent following distance. Edit 2: I also wasn't saying in that first post that no car will ever have to swerve ever, just that "just brake" as an immediate reaction is a much more commonly viable thing than it would seem at first.

Here's a bunch more from https://twitter.com/HorribleSanity http://www.thomas-morris.uk/glass-half-empty/ quote:"While recently on a visit to Canton, I derived the history of the following case from the notes and verbal explanations of the Rev. Peter Parker, M. D., chief of the Ophthalmic Hospital, &c., under whose notice they fell. The case affords us a glance at the debauchery practiced by a portion of the Chinese population about Canton.

Hooded Reptile posted:W.Va. school placed on lockdown after man demands to sing Bieber songs on intercom Hate to quote myself but, Man Arrested Twice for Singing Justin Bieber Songs at Two Schools A man was arrested twice Tuesday trying to sing Justin Bieber songs at two different schools in Dunbar, police say. Officers say Dloantie Lewis walked into Dunbar Middle School -- demanding to sing over the intercom. Police took Lewis to Thomas Memorial Hospital and cited him for having marijuana. A few hours later, police say Thomas showed up at Kiddie College, located at a church in South Charleston, and made a scene there. Lewis was arrested a second time and taken to jail. The incidents caused temporary lockdowns at both places. http://www.wsaz.com/news/headlines/Man-Arrested-Twice-for-Singing-Justin-Bieber-Songs-at-Two-Schools-337763771.html

Bonus for Halloween http://www.thomas-morris.uk/the-winged-ones-insects-in-the-stomach/ quote:The wretched subject of this Paper is Mary Riordan, aged twenty-eight, who, though weakened by long suffering, still retains the appearance of having been originally robust. She has a high degree of nervous sensibility, and is of a melancholic temperament, and religious frame of mind. Her melancholy may be traced, in the first instance, to the death of her mother, after which, during severe months, she was in the habit of daily visiting her grave. On one of these occasions, overcome by the poignancy of her feelings and fatigue, she was found the following morning lying over the grave in a state of insensibility, having spent there the entire of a rainy winter’s night. She has been for the last six years labouring, at intervals, under vomiting of blood, as also during nearly the same period under occasional convulsions.
