Ah I missed the PSA on texting while driving when this headline popped up. I had wondered why this was newsworthy.
"I've never been quite sure what the point of a eunuch is, if truth be told. It seems to me they're only men with the useful bits cut off."
I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

It's weird she thought anyone would give a shit about that. :hmm:

Anyway, it's probably best if people ignore attention whoring posts like that on FB.  My guess is she had a bunch of people who liked everything she posted, thus affirming that making meaningless posts to FB was a good use of her time.

I just cannot understand how somebody can be so utterly stupid as to start texting during driving.

This seems a step beyond that. She was posting selfies and writing on facebook. :wacko:

Unless you are over 50, don't call me, just send me a text.

It made her happy for the rest of her life.

Not directly related to this woman's hilarious death, but God I hate that song.

As my wife put it...It has no point. It's not even really a song, it's more like...a soundtrack to a moment. Like an advertising jingle or bumper music for a radio show.

I sort of tolerated it the first time I heard it, but by the second it was tiresome and by the third extremely annoying.  I have heard at least part of it 1,251 times.

Yi has a karaoke joint?  :lol:

I'm a regular at a karaoke joint.  I don't own it.

I do pull all the strings though.  :ph34r:
