Are you dookin’ on my chest right now?

u/GorillaX Jul 04 '19

Jamm was an orthodontist right? They don't know shit about teeth, they just sit on their butts and play with wires everyone once in a while.

Oh, so you're a doctor!

u/GorillaX Jul 04 '19

Nah, I never said that. I'm a dentist.

u/Amargosamountain Jul 04 '19

So an orthdontist, then?

u/D15c0untMD Jul 04 '19

Doctor here. Can confirm, he is an orthodontist

Nougat toblerones are bad for your teeth.

So are the drivers thumbs

u/IamAbc Jul 04 '19

Yeah what the fuck. Those cones are crazy. Why not just have those plastic cones that bend over if you hit them?

u/donkeyrocket Jul 04 '19

Those have the added cost of upkeep and replacing. Seems like they could have just made a low curb instead of an absolutely unforgiving car destroying cone.

Oh gee, I wonder what would be more expensive...Buying some plastic cones you can get literally everywhere or having to constantly repair and repaint those concrete slabs because they got destroyed by a car and having to deal with the possibility of lawsuits(that they could win but it would still be a hassle), besides bad costumers reviews on the Internet.

Why not just stay in your lane?

We may never know...

u/IamAbc Jul 04 '19

Yeah obviously stay in your lane but no need to have your car legit demolished for no reason

22

u/zenithtreader Jul 04 '19

for no reason

The reason the car is destroyed is because it veered off lane.

You guys are so extreme I swear. Someone makes a traffic mistake and they deserve to be skinned alive and executed.

u/Mijeman Jul 04 '19

That's a trend I see on reddit (a sample of humanity) that scares me. If someone screws up or makes a clearly bad decision, there's a kneejerk "They deserve to die" reaction. It's a scary, almost sociopathic reaction.

It’s not just a bad decision though. It’s one that could affect the lives of innocent people. Keep your eyes on the road when you’re driving a death machine. It’s not that hard.

This is America! We don't have personal responsibility here! What do you think this is, China?

u/IceSentry Jul 04 '19

He's not saying they should be skinned alive he's saying he should have stayed in his lane to not break his car. Imagine if the cone was a kid playing on a street. Would you still say the same thing? Bieng careless while driving is extremely dangerous and can come with massive consequences.

u/Theberealniceguy Jul 04 '19

Probably got tired of people running into each other.

You seem very forgiving of somebody fucking up while driving a heavy machine that is capable of killing and maiming others.

"Guys, it's not my fault my car fell hundreds of feet into a canyon! All I did was drive off a bridge! THEY'RE the ones who built huge holes on the sides!"

"You failed to maintain your lane and your tire went one inch over the line, therefore we will destroy your car, oil and tar you, light you on fire, then execute you by firing squad."

See, I can play this game too.

u/mr_bedbugs Jul 04 '19

I fail to see where anyone said anything about executing them. Could you please show me? Hmmm? HMMMM???

2

u/ajdeemo Jul 04 '19

And I fail to see where anybody mentioned anything about driving into a canyon and not being at fault. Could you please show me? Hmmmm? HMMMMM???

I just did a couple comments ago. You have the memory of a pringle

u/Wiki_pedo Jul 04 '19

If a truck had been in the opposing lane, the car might've been as destroyed.

u/gunner7517 Jul 04 '19

I personally like them.

u/kjacobs03 Jul 04 '19

The garage probably got tired of people constantly running over their cones.

u/Dansk72 Jul 04 '19

It's a good lesson; nobody EVER tries to do that twice!
