    The true story of the thing that pissed me off by me (in lieu of posting on my blog because I can't, which also pisses me off).

    Bouncing heap of spastic junk with pea-brained maniac behind wheel accelerates towards crosswalk on which I have innocently claimed asylum under the auspices of the friendly green man beckoning from the other side. Here I choose to stand firm, graveyard of brave perigrinators. Briefly. Before drawing back in horror at the realization that peabrained spastic junk driver would sooner convert me to road pancake than cease, desist or even slightly slow down his sputtering lump of malicious metal. By a matter of inches and only by an almost impossible reverse maneuvre do I manage to retain bodily integrity. (At least I remember to spit at the bastard though sadly I miss the windshield and almost certainly the attention of said peabrained homicidal nutter - i.e. typical local driver - when doing so.)

    I'll have to put it through the fake news test. If Trump says it's fake news, it isn't, and if he says it isn't, it is.

    Nah, real news is BBC, Reuters, Washington Post, New York Times, etc.

    CNN, FOX, and MSNBC all get a "Mixed" rating on https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/ . I like my reporting to be "High" or "Very High".

    Politifact and Snopes are also good to check whether or not the news is fake. FOX has 60% "mostly false"/"false"/"pants on fire" compared to CNN's 27% (albeit comparing FOX's 169 checks to CNN's 79). MSNBC only has two claims checked so not enough to warrant a comparison.

    Hmm, I may also have to put your fake news test through the fake news test. If Trump says that Trump says it's fake news then Trump didn't say it's fake news therefore it is fake news.

    College education is not a 24/7 way of life, you do have free time occasionally. We also had competitions to see which group could put more people in a telephone booth or mini car. And a lot of other pranks.
