It's the occasional nuggets of gold like this that keep me periodically checking xkcd.

XKCD is how I know I'm getting dumber. It's been saddening as I notice I 'get' fewer and fewer of the comics without research. Oh well I've just made room for other knowledge, right, right?
Do you ring the bell on the bus for the last stop? I enjoy doing it, not sure if anyone else on the bus does though
I do, but out of paranoia the driver will skip it and drive straight to a depot without realising they still have a passenger. This may have happened to me when I was in primary school 😒
I get ready for work in the morning, I step outside and everytime I can hear from across the other side of town a Harley Davidson burping it's way along the road. My questions are:
Should this be allowed?
What do people who ride them think when they are riding along knowing full well the noise that is being generated?
No.
And
Something about safety, usually.
Did you know that you can legitimately call 000 if there are hoons in your area at that moment or report it to crime stoppers if it's not urgent? It's cathartic to report them.
