Don't wanna go all preachy on yer asses so just this: family friends were just in an accident, two girls driving 35 mph hit by a drunk driver passing at the crest of a hill going 75-100 mph per police estimations. The 15 year old has a crushed heel that may never come back together; the 20 year old has two broken femurs, two broken tibias and a broken kneecap; both have multiple other injuries.
I see a lot of jokey references to drinking and driving around here, and to past DUIs...so you know where I'm going with this. Please, think about it.

The Not Funny Drunk Driving Thread
I can't understand why people are frightened of new ideas. I'm frightened of the old ones.

Glad your friends are alright, it sounds like it could have been much, much worse.
In a similar nonpreachy frame, drugs are not an excuse for acting like an asshole. It's the behavior and not the drugs that are to blame.Merde De Glace On the Freak When Ski

I resolve PC issues remotely. Need to get rid of all that pr0n you downloaded on your work laptop? Or did you just get a ton of viruses from searching for "geriatic midget sex"? Either way I can fix them. PM Me for maggot prices.

Dui's suck to all who are involved, both those who get busted and any victims suffering...unfortunately, I have been on both sides and would not wish either on anyone.
In all the human walks of life--driving, social, relationships, health, sports, recreation, spiritual, legal, internet, work...to me it is simple:
Just don't do stupid shit
Still, it seems to be a hard concept to follow for many (sometimes including my dumb-ass self)...
peace,
