MODERATORS
There's supposedly less lead around now, what do we blame for all the idiots and psychopaths around now?
There is something inherently anti-social about a car. Almost any method you have to communicate with those around you will be seen as aggressive.
If someone is sitting at a light too long, you honk at them. There aren't a lot of other good options. But even a honk sounds aggressive. You could be as polite a person as can be in any other situation, but making the completely reasonable choice to honk at them makes it sound like you're calling their mom fat.
It only gets worse from there.
I know people who put 1000 rounds of shit dirty wolf ammo through their AR pretty much every weekend. These are people who say shit like "my dick is clean why would I wash my hands after I piss?"
I can pretty much guarantee you that there is a fine layer of lead dust on everything they own.
The lead is concentrated around cars
Well hopefully not from the fuel anymore
