Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Also to speak to the reasons this Suburban was involved in an accident: I believe the driver was evading a wrong-way automobile.
obligatory reminder: seatbelts, seatbelts, SEATBELTS

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I wish I could get that through my mother's head. Even after my sister's accident, in which a seatbelt SAVED HER LIFE, she still won't wear it. I get weary of having the same argument with her every time we get into a car. I will not move until everyone is buckled up, including her. Unfortunately that means at least a 10-minute discussion.
Sorry. It's a sore spot with me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The only question/issue I have with the Bj, beej, is that in one instance the whole thing is lowercase, so the difference is a little jarring. Or something.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Also, I think you should all go to [link] to read lots of fascinating info about SUVS written and/or edited by my awesome DH, and also because every hit ends up with him getting paid more. And you can see his cute picture.

Hee! All of our product people eagerly anticipate his new reviews. He's got a reputation for being unbiased in the import v. American debate.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I had a classmate back in school who, not wearing a seatbelt, got thrown safely clear of a car that would have crushed him during the crumpling. he then took this as a sign that he should never wear one. Because if you've already had a one-in-a-hundred accident, you're so much more likely to have another one rather than the reglar kind that seatbelts help with. rolls eyes forever...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Why do Friday afternoons always last for 3 days?
What are people doing this weekend?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I hate HATE wearing my seatbelt. Hate it. If it weren't a law, I wouldn't wear it at all. Other people's cars...they get to dictate the rules for the passengers they're hauling.
But I'm constantly irritated by the seat belt.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
My seatbelt saved my life when I rolled my car (2.5 rotations, whee!), and I still hate wearing them.
Motorcycles have no seatbelts! Yay imminent death & destruction!
Lee, I am working tonight. Tomorrow, I am finishing the installation of my stemware rack & rearranging my books, watching the Sabres beat the Islanders again, and then going for a ride with Motorcycle Boy (weather cooperating). Sunday, I am unplanned, but I'm sure there will be pre-DJ-visit cleaning.
What are you doing?
