the 'good' news is that its not just in america...
Bosnie government had to warn its population to avoir playing Pokemon Go in the anti-personnel mine infested area....
When you reach a point where you have to tell people not to step where there's anti-personnel mine...

I was telling a few people about a 6 mile walk I went on and I got the "did you catch any cool Pokemon?"  . It's hard to believe the only way people will get out is by immersing themselves into a video game. Atleast it's getting them out and about......right? |

It's probably giving everyone an early glimpse into life with cortical cataracts. The app should come with diabetes and a pack of Pall Malls.

People are legally obligated to render aid to a person injured in an accident (under a concept called "Duty of Care").
That being said, I would have a difficult time rendering care to someone who Darwin is trying to remove from the gene pool. |
That's false. I'm not legally obligated to do a fucking thing if I see a wreck, nor do I give a fuck if you do either.

If you are texting, by definition you are not paying attention to other tasks at hand, like piloting your motorcycle down the freeway. That fact that you lived through it does not mean it was a safe (or smart) thing to do. It only means you lived through it.

The ones I like the best is dark clothes at night, walking with traffic with ear buds in.
Rules your parents should have taught you.
Walk against traffic. You can see who is going to hit you and run out of the way.
Walk your bike across the street. You are now a pedestrian and can go in reverse. Drop bike and run, or above run out of the way with bike.
Ride with traffic you are now considered a vehicle and should be observing the rules like, STOPPING FOR STOP SIGHNS!
On bike paths when you come to a CROSS WALK be a pedestrian [see above]
Pay attention and do your job. What ever it is at the time |
