I think I have heard that before...
Some film quote?

Same here, but for a hamburger and only a 5h tour overall.

Background: Someone stating that Burger King was better than MacDonalds, so we had to drive to the nearest one located at some US airbase.

Wow, reformation really hit you hard, didn't it?

My language did that better, term is "Alleinerziehender", literally translating to:
"alone nursing (person)".

Also, it incidentally is in the male grammatical form, although that is used as a neutral gender here.

"Single Mom" has become some kind of slur, understanding that correct?

Funny thing is, this meme is so old by now, that "child" should be substituted by "parent", as this is all completely ancient GenX/Millennial internet lingo...

Biblical writings extensively dive into descriptions of Satan.
Based on that, I would conclude even listening to Black Metal might be ok.
But maybe the Bible is just not the final last word when dealing with modern day questions...

It's the total numbers compared.

So if you would get numbers per time or travelled distance, this would probably be even worse (>>3 times more deadly).

Especially since the statistics are from Germany. We are enthusiastic public walkers.

Germany.

I guess our pedestrian infrastructure is probably better than in most other places.
But we also like to walk a lot, so this might shift statistics again...

These statistics are regularily presented at company safety courses to get us to actually use the provided handrails. :-)

Not sure it is completely silly.
You often see those labels beforehand and maybe think "Oh yeah, better organize something to get home or stay for the night."
And at least raises awareness about the negative effects of alcohol (there are several more warnings I have just learned from @LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net

You don't have to do it iteratively, just count the sum of the "out" votes from a single voting and the one with the least wins.
Still not a good system in my view, though...

I guess it would lead to politicians being even more sycophantic before elections to not exhibit any possible trait that could be seen as negative.
Not a good system, I think.

Long video... Timestamps?
