Effective as a marketing ploy yes.

If it was effective we’d not need to leep making millions of tonnes of NEW plastic.

The actual term ‘concentration camp’ was invented by the Spanish (as campo de concentración or campo de reconcentración) in 1896 – three years before the 2nd Anglo-Boer War (1899 – 1904) started. It originated during The Cuban War of Independence (Guerra de Independencia cubana, 1895–98) was the last of three liberation wars that Cuba fought against Spain.

A rebellion had broken out in Cuba, then a Spanish colony in 1895. The rebels, outnumbered by Spanish government troops, turned to guerrilla warfare (and here another myth which says the Boer’s invented ‘guerrilla warfare’ is debunked).

To be fair they were on a freeway, at night, chasing an injured anmial on the freeway.

They had big hearts and small brains.

When i was a teen I used to think there was something wrong with me for not liking driving, now im 60 ,fuck driving.

My partner amd I managed to live car free for a few years before we moved and it was glorious.

Under 40km/hr, a small noise makes sense, over that the tyres make enough noise

You could of course keep detailed statistics about what kind of crashes and where and causes

I am sure they do

and, based off that data, redesign each intersection that has a lot of risks, making your city safer.

None of that though.

Soutpark needs to redo the “Tom Cruise won’t come out of the closet” skit with the Tuckster.

These are Cipolla’s five fundamental laws of stupidity:

Always and inevitably, everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation.

The probability that a certain person (will) be stupid is independent of any other characteristic of that person.

A stupid person is a person who causes losses to another person or to a group of persons while himself deriving no gain and even possibly incurring losses.

Non-stupid people always underestimate the damaging power of stupid individuals. In particular, non-stupid people constantly forget that at all times and places, and under any circumstances, to deal and/or associate with stupid people always turns out to be a costly mistake.

A stupid person is the most dangerous type of person.

Isn’t he circumcision?
