...I am now reasonably well assured that I am a decent driver, and no longer need to doubt myself all the time. Usually.

I like, accidentally bumped somebody once at extremely low speed and gave them the wrong insurance card (I don't feel bad. Their car might have been more expensive than mine, but it was still made of plastic, and it only scratched a little bit of paint), and got stuck a couple times when I lost traction, broke my turn signal by misjudging the turn radius of my vehicle and the distance to a solid metal pole, maybe got a speeding ticket once, but hey, I didn't kill anyone in multiple-vehicle accidents in order to break the speed limit! \o/

I'll admit that I laughed at the seventeenth. Why? What were they thinking!?
I flat-out refuse to believe that the fifth was real. No way. I can't even get mad. It's too outlandish.
I'll get angry with the rest of you about the rest, though.

A good number of those look like they were trying to commit insurance fraud.

My folks tell me that the new cat was missing, and the cat we already have, who we thought was under the house, was under my brother's bed the whole time, so the leaving the door open to get her back inside only served to the the new one out.

I notice that a large number of those were in China or Taiwan. Seems legit, though in my experience, mayhem like that rarely results in actual wrecks. I remember taking a taxi and the guy spent most of the trip either driving on the sidewalk or directly into oncoming traffic.

Nothing says "Welcome to China" like driving directly at an oncoming double-decker bus at 110 kph and veering safely back into the correct lane with about 1 second to spare. (Incidentally, it also says "I hope you brought extra underwear".)

Oh god, this reminds me of Vegas cab drivers.

My pair of Turtle beaches have finally broke. After heavy daily usage for what I'm guessing is a year or more nonstop, the right ear cuff has unceremoniously snapped off. I thought it would have been the wires to go first, what with how I leave them shamelessly tangled and knotted, frequently stepped on and rolled over by the wheels of my chair, but they held on strong. Even when the ear cuff snapped off it was just the connecting wire holding it from falling off completely. You did a good job Turtle Beach, I enjoyed this product.

Now I just hope that my extended warrantee is still valid so I can get a new pair, else it will be an expensive replacement.

Overdosed on naproxen sodium (treats muscle aches), now I'm drowsy and feel a headache coming on. Problem is, I've still got work to do.

That is the sassiest "don't overdose on drugs" I've ever heard.

You misspelled seance.  Are possessing Draignean?  Are you actually a ghost in the shell? You have to tell us if you are, that's the rule

Not exactly abuse, more like I forgot I took a dose pretty much immediately after taking a dose. I seem to forget what I stood up for when I stand up to go do things rather too often. Thank goodness it wasn't something else.

You dont understand, abuse of nsaids is endemic in the US. There are people here who use nsaids so much that they literally destroy their stomach, esophagus, and liver.

"pain management" is a big business over here.  I literally meant that abusing nsaids is BAD, m'kay?
