if I had to guess I would guess that huge unwieldy cars like those limousines get in fewer than average fatal accidents because people tend to be more careful when they're driving awkward cars
but I am not a stretch limo statistics expert

Plenty of ludicrously huge limos full of drunk people running round Sauchiehall St on a Fri night.

Streets used to be named for the place they aimed at. Thus Limo Crash Vigil Street, if you followed it nine miles, brought you to the Limo Crash Vigil.

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a limo crash vigil must be in want of a wife.

people who say "individual actions towards preventing climate change don't matter!" when they are told that reducing meat consumption can help curb global warming are actually just weak willed pussies who are scared of eating vegetables

i wouldn't say individual actions don't _matter_, but it is a bit of a pie-baking response.

^ I'm pretty sure I know the provenance of that photo. If I'm correct the flames and the golfers were on opposite sides of the Columbia River and a long telephoto lens is distorting their apparent proximity to one another. But, purely as an image, it captures a lot more than the pure facts would suggest.
― A is for (Aimless), Sunday, 14 October 2018 00:04 (seven years ago)
Well aware of telephoto juxtaposition, but still, FUCK GOLF! (is that controversial enough?)\
Golf was well on its way to dying among younger generations before Trump. After Trump, I suspect this will accelerate. Its the sport of the arrogant and oblivious.
I've gotten on the orienteering bandwagon. Someday, drones will turn orienteering into a major sport.

The angry speech in Falling Down about golf courses being a waste of space really influenced my high school mind and I have hated golf ever since

I don't like golf, but P.G. Wodehouse's golfing stories are almost good enough (i.e. really fucking good) to make me appreciate it.
― mfktz (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Sunday, 14 October 2018 14:34 (seven years ago)
this thread is too controversial sometimes.. yow ! burning my eyes! Although to stay on topic, last night I was rather drunk and for some mysterious reason, ended up watching a Jeeves & Wooster ep on youtube. And thinking: this might be quite good without Fry + Laurie!

Lol, sanpaku - I live in St. Andrews, and I sympathise. It uses so much space, but it’s like half the economy here. But I don’t understand people who watch it...

Space is scarce in insular Europe and U.S. coastal urban areas. It is plentiful in the U.S. midwest, the U.S. montane west, the steppes of Asia, the Australian interior, Greenland, and Antarctica.
I propose that golfing should continue, but in those places instead.

can actually remember turning up at a posh golf (as poor as fuck white kid) course with intentions to offer caddying services for cash. Some group of young black kids had got there before us and were shouting: " there is a queue here, you white cunts!" ahh ..the spirit of golf!

oh, here's a controversial opinion - minigolf is a superficial and tedious sort of "fun" far more entertaining in the abstract than it is to actually play
― dub pilates (rushomancy), Sunday, 14 October 2018 16:39 (seven years ago)
That’s an advantage though, since if you can’t play minigolf you can get 90% of the fun by just thinking about minigolf. The last 10% is the fun of arguing
