I find it hard to be too mad at those who severely fuck themselves up by being idiot, since they've earned their own luck... but still...
I think I hate the looky-loo's the most - stopping traffic to gawk.
Although I'm one to talk, the girl whose mother lived by the polics scanner at night, and who was awakened many times to drive to the scene of horrific accidents, so Mother could see what was going on.
I was the one (at about 12) who told her (while looking at the damage) that the car couldn't be a Corvette (as she thought) because a Corvette was made of fiberglass, and would have shattered, not peeled back to reveal the drivers footwells/seats & interior at the car that drove under the parked semi did.
I also noticed that the lump of ick in front of me at the end my the street after the car/motorcycle accident was pink and curvy - like brain matter. She promptly moved me away.
Oh, the life of a child whose mother was ruled by the police scanner...
