Is that because we're the proverbial "windshield" and the comments/commentors are the "bugs"? Too harsh?
Are you familiar with the provetb, "Sometimes you're the windshield, and sometimes you're the bug?" @simon klein? Atrribute it to whomever you like. Thiugh not sure if Mark Twain was familiar with high speed windshields in his day.
The only cow in a small town in VIC stopped giving milk. The people did some research and found that they could buy a cow from QLD, for $1000 or one from WA for $800. Being poor, they bought the cow from WA. The cow was wonderful. It produced lots of milk all the time. The people were amazed but very, very happy. They decided to acquire a bull to mate with the cow and produce more cows like it. Then they would never have to worry about the milk supply again. They bought a bull, put it in the pasture with their beloved cow. However, whenever the bull came close to the cow, the cow would move away. No matter what approach the bull tried, the cow would move away from the bull, and he would not succeed in his quest. The people were very upset and decided to ask the Reverend, who was very, very wise, what to do. They told the Reverend what was happening. Whenever the bull approached the cow, she moves away. If he approaches from the back, she moves forward. When he approaches from the front, she backs off. An approach from the side, she just walks away to the other side. The Reverend thought deeply about this for a minute and asked, "Did you happen to buy this cow from WA?" The people were dumbfounded. They'd never mentioned where they'd gotten the cow from. "You are truly a wise Reverend," they said. "How the heavens did you know we got the cow from WA?" The Reverend answered sadly, "My wife is also from WA."
I bought a new imported Ford F250 Tri-Flex Fuel Truck... Go figure... it runs on either hydrogen, gasoline, or E85. I returned to the dealer yesterday because I couldn't get the radio to work. The service technician explained that the radio was voice activated. 'Nelson,' the technician said to the radio. The radio replied, 'Ricky or Willie?' 'Willie!' he continued and 'On The Road Again' came from the speakers. Then he said, 'Ray Charles!', and in an instant, 'Georgia On My Mind' replaced Willie Nelson. I drove away happy, and for the next few days, every time I'd say, 'Beethoven ‘, 'I'd get beautiful classical music, and if I said, 'Beatles,' I'd get one of their awesome songs. Yesterday, some guy ran a red light and nearly creamed my new truck, but I swerved in time to avoid him... I yelled, "F...ing Idiot" Immediately the radio responded with: "Ladies and gentlemen, an address from Anthony Albanese." Damn, I love this truck...
