one of the things i hate about people my age is that they'll be like "omg stop bullying me" to their friends and treat it like some lighthearted joke when there's people around them who have been severely bullied in the past, occasionally even by the people who are joking about it.

You can drink coffee and tell yourself you won't fall asleep, but one second you're trying to keep your eyes opened and the next you've ruined the lives of others as well as yourself.

I've always thought that was an a-hole thing to do to someone. We didn't do it at our wedding even though some folks seem to view it as 'tradition'.

Doggy will go flying when the car stops suddenly

Hydroplaning is almost as scary as bitting black ice!

This is a really thing to know.

Especially if you're driving.

Edit: It seems we have some Monty Python fans. Makes me smile. TIM: Well, that's no ordinary rabbit. That's the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered rodent you ever set eyes on. ROBIN: You tit! I soiled my armor I was so scared!

Kinda how I feel when I go mushroom hunting🤪

I like to swim, but even I know that doing s**t like this is dangerous and irresponsible. I'd rather not be a vegetable for the rest of my life, thank you.

Drowning is my biggest fear, no thank you.

That's easy to say, but some people have no choice and just can't get enough sleep, no matter how much they'd like to, for a variety of reasons.

The antlers look scary enough as it is

Walking is the best, but most underrated, exercise out there. Walk at a moderate pace 30 minutes a day and it will do wonders for you.

No matter what you do to keep yourself and others safe, like wearing a seatbelt and driving at the speed limit, there's always a chance some f**k will come along and change your life in an instant.

Yeah, who knows what clown you will end up with. Mind you the average voter doesn't really have much capacity for independent research. Usually all the bad things come to light after the clown has been elected

And glass shower doors. I was in the shower once and one of the sides dislodged and fell in pieces on me. Fortunately it was the one in front and not the back where I was standing. Glass shower doors can be deadly!

That is why you need to determine the source and why critical thinking is so important!

Schools: I'm gonna pretend I didn't see that

But isn't "it can be used for evil" true of just about every technology ever from guns and tanks to cell phones and satellites?

I don't need to watch anything to know that going near a 6 foot, 2000 pound mammal with horns is probably not a good idea.

Best decision I ever made was to never join social media!

Makes me think of that Far Side comic where two kids are tossing a bear cub to each other and the mother bear is approaching in the background. The caption says something like "And the [name] brothers were never heard from again".

Ok can somebody explain what this means and why it's dangerous plz? I'm not very familiar with the dangers of the ocean.

Imo, sex is overrated. It's not good enough to stay in a relationship. Learn to do it yourself the best way you can and you'll be forgetting what'stheirname.

The first time I spun out I started sobbing. There was no one near me, my car didn't even get a scratch, but it was awful

AND, the blue rings only show up when the octopus starts feeling stressed.

YES!

Inhaling cinnamon can cause inflammation in the lungs, a thickening of lung tissue, and scarring which may lead to pneumonia, a collapsed lung, and/or permanent lung damage.

I’ve found that just existing takes a major toll on my mental health…

I'd be so unalive cause those teeny, colorful dart frogs are the cutest widdle ribbits ever!

People who pick fights for no reason, just to seem tough or cool. One day you're going to find someone who's bigger and stronger than you, and if you're in America there's a large chance they strapped.

Well duh! Everyone knows sharks don't hang around in trees.

Strange juxtaposition. Why not "Chinese finger traps and crocodiles"?

“100% of household accidents happen in or around the home.” Seriously?!

I have similar statistic: 100% of people who died, drank water.

If it occurs at home, then of course all accidents would happen 100% in the home!

I had a good friend that died falling down his basement stairs. He had a bad knee and I guess it gave out. He was otherwise healthy and only 39 years old. Super great guy. His wife and three kids were looking for him for hours. one wrong move could be your last.

Stairs - I NEVER go up or down without holding onto the railing. Once you lose your footing you can't react fast enough to grab it before falling. Learned the hard way.

Stairs - I had to laugh at this too. Bought a 1920 bungalow to renovate. As we began work on it, I told my son how I fell all the way down those stairs as a child because they were slick, narrow and short (tread). During work, he fell part way down them twice and I fell part way down them again. We have since put in a longer, wider, less slick case to help ensure no one else has that issue.

I have three to negotiate to get into my house. I have hand rails on both sides, and I USE one of them, ALWAYS.

And yet architects keep designing stairs to be more and more dangerous for the sake of looking 'cool'....

Can confirm stairs suck (has fallen down stairs at least 5 times at this point)

100% of things around the house happen around the house....no s**t. Stairs arent dangerous. Falling down them is.

Kitchen counters

A classmate of mine recently passed away. He feel down some stairs over a year ago and suffered serious injuries. He was not able to recover from the injuries.
