    Yes. Let’s blame others around rather than the person making a cheap joke and acting like they are too cool to follow the accepted rules. Would we feel this way if they made a such a caviler statement about owning a gun? Would it work if were mocking nurses paying attention to administrating medicine?

    Of course not.

    It’s the person on Instagram. If you can’t care that the rider could be a mother or a father to a little kid, pull over and sell your fucking car and take a bus. You have the illusion of responsibility without actually thinking it’s a cooperative event on a massive scale.

        Obviously. However people do sit on IG and not give a shit about people on motorcycles. And I have been hit while doing 70 from one of them. And I had a 3 year old at the time.

        So, maybe pick something better to be funny about. Because to some it won’t ever be funny.

            I’m not blocking blatant stupidity. I’m calling it stupid for the whole world to see. It’s not for you. Because it’s obvious you’re stupid. It’s for those that read it and not think it’s cool because it’s a meme so “everyone” is doing it.

            Shelling into “it’s just a joke” is pure and utter bullshit. Grow some skin yourself and realize that actions have consequences.

                Who said I was talking to you about the meme? Why do you assume my audience is JUST you? I’m telling every fuck twit that thinks it’s cool to do this or even joke about it, it’s not. And I don’t need your parental assessment on my emotions. I’ll tell you right to your face, shut the fuck up or be shut up.

                    Telling people to “calm down” is condescending as well as overbearing. And I am not responding to only you. It’s a public forum. Many people read that don’t respond.

      you know, its kinda lame you are mad at the joke, but i feel this anger. people will fucking kill you in traffic because they can’t put that garbage addiction down for 20 fucking minutes while they drive to get groceries. ive never been in such an accident but know people who went through a bad time because of it.

      driving while looking at stupid racist memes from your uncle should be grounds for immediate and permanent suspension of your right to drive at all.

        I have a plate in my wrist and 9 pins. Luckily the person behind me stopped quick enough to save my life.
