  • I remember back in 5th grade my teacher brought in for show-and-tell a guy who said his sole job was designing the plastic bags that go in cereal boxes. And to clarify just how boring this guy’s job actually is, the teacher asked “do you design the box art as well?” with a emphatic “no, but…”. Kids only asked about cereal flavors and toys they wanted to see in boxes. He gave everyone 2 little sample cereal boxes; and that was it.



  • That’s cool. This sub\community is very lighthearted. It is also very international. Cool tip: if you happen to catch yourself on a word or phrase that wasn’t inert\commonplace\or a opps-i-didn’t-know-it-was-even-a-thing… I myself just take the hit, put that in my to-do box, and move on. I have plenty other funny bones to contribute.

    In a nutshell that’s the internet-- no one asks you to hide or change yourself, but flamewar can happen like a diesel truck thru a nitroglycerin factory.















  • I know in California, any activity that is distracting away lots of attention of the driver from driving, even if the activity is legal, normal, eating, fun, a minor emergency, etc… is considered a Moving Violation ticket.

    Figuring out devices, heated phone calls (hands-free included), BJ’s, applying make-up, eating, air drumming or head banging to music, passenger tantrums, looking at an accident or garage sale or other spectacle, reading, etc.
    edit:
    Your last question…If for some reason a driver cannot handle a normal conversation during driving then it’s a hazard.
