Reiterating the fact that to be aware is to be alive

i can't tell you how many times i've almost hit a bicyclist who was running a red light, or riding the wrong way on a busy street... or how many times, as a pedestrian, i've almost gotten struck by cars running red lights, or not paying attention... and how many of those folks have been on their fucking cellphones yappin' away.

society is made up of a bunch of selfish jerks these days.

ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME ME I WANT I WANT I WANT I CAN HAZ I CAN HAZ I CAN HAZ ME ME ME ME WANT WANT WANT WANT

irritating.

this is a fantastic visuailtion of that selfishness, proof that just crossing the street can be risky business:

    I have overheard teens laughing about intentionally stepping out in front of cars just to scare "old people" (laughing about the shocked expression on the driver's face)- and saying they don't care if they get hit and killed as long as it upsets the driver. So now if I hit a teen pedestrian I am going to make myself feel better about it by imagining that he or she was doing it on purpose.

    i think that would hold up, if anyone were to be offended by your choice ;-)
