Hi, let me educate you.
Aug. 24th, 2009 12:17 pmBY SCARING YOU WITLESS.
Tell me if this ever worked for you.
It worked DAMN well when I was in 4th grade and they used pictures and data culled from England to 'educate' us about LSD, pot and barbituates.
Uh. Like, dead bodies. I was oh - about 8 or 9. (BTW, withdrawl from barbituates? Those days, you frothed at the mouth and nose and died. Period. Full stop.)
I got so scared about anything getting in my stuff I ended up on the couch over it. Because 'tee hee' they could put LSD into ANYTHING and you'd never know. Well, and they did too. Ask
n6vfp, you don't believe me.
Taking anything for recreational purposes just never sat right with me. I'm just at the point these days when I'll drink something to the point of feeling the effect - no, never had a hangover, not once. Ever.
So when this little video crossed my path this AM, I watched - was impressed - and decided to pass it on.
A new British PSA attempting to discourage teenagers from texting while driving is actually a four-minute, 15-second journey into YouTube hell. If the graphic, slo-mo head-on collision doesn’t have you covering your bleary eyes in horror, then perhaps the followup, side-impact crash will accomplish that task.
Oh, it's well done. Keep in mind my background working in hospitals - me, family and yeah.
And I'm reminded I need to update our kits in the cars.
EDIT: I'm tempted to tell you about one big boner as far as actual effect is concerned -
dedoc would pick it up in a red hot second - then my self-restraint kicked in. No, you don't need to know what that actually would look like - it would break your heart - and I shouldn't know this much about it.)
EDIT EDIT: HAHA. 1:20, there's
