How did you screenshot a dirty screen?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 9 months ago

And they saved a image that is mostly text as a jpeg instead of a png. That's two crimes.

The parents eat a small part of him every year.

Aww 🥺

Considering how so many motorcyclists drive, and the fact that the parents forgave the student, I'm going to guess that what really happened is that the motorcyclist killed himself by driving recklessly.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

That's a massive and unnecessary assumption. We have no real information, so let's not act like we do.

[–] [email protected] -5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Sounds like you've never driven on a highway where there have been motorcycles present. Or you are a motorcyclist who doesn't like to acknowledge that many of your fellow riders don't follow traffic laws very well.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Believe me, I am very aware of how many motorcyclists drive recklessly. My point is that we do not have enough information to really determine anything. I'm not going to just assume that based on what I've seen some other people do, especially when I have absolutely nothing to gain by doing so.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 9 months ago

That's fair. But I did say it was just a guess based on anecdotal experience.

I mean, consider the counter shit take: That motorcyclist could be driving much more recklessly without being in so much danger, if other people didn't drive around with mobile walls at 100 km/h...

You're arbitrarily assuming it to be a given, that dangerous cars are on the street, and shifting the blame to the person who is, quite by definition, the victim here.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Guys, guys. You're both right. Motorcyclists are suicidal and cars are shit. Both can be true at the same time.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Motorcyclists are the only road goers that have tried passing my on the side I am signalling to turn on more than one occasion. Maybe because literally nobody else here signals they don't know what it means.

[–] [email protected] -5 points 9 months ago (2 children)

I'm not making any arbitrary assumptions. I'm making educated guesses based on what I see on the highways near me.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 9 months ago

You’re not wrong, but ~~reddit~~ Lemmy says that donorcyclists can do no wrong.

Press X for doubt.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

Well, it's on X, so it's all doubt

What is this Facebook cancer?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 9 months ago

This is whitepeopletwitter. What did u expect?

[–] [email protected] 56 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Apparently if you forgive it, the cancer will be healed.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 9 months ago (1 children)

That cancer's name? Albert Einstein.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 9 months ago (1 children)

And then everyone clapped

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Dont forget that everybody in the room also got 1000 dollars!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

But every dollar had cancer.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

But they forgave it
