So let’s go in circles,
so let’s lower the speed limit to 50 as it helps partially
Why not lower it to 20 mph as that would reduce almost all fatal collisions?
120 characters? Hmm, I wonder what I could write with 64 characters. Boy, it's gonna be hard to use up 15 characters. W-

Literally my thoughts. These memes are annoying. They're neither accurate nor humourous ao what's the point?

BTW, the same goes for this one...
It is called cognitive dissonance.

I agree that anyone who makes such arguments should not be allowed to drive faster than 20 MPH if they are allowed to drive at all.

In response to my above posts.

If you disagree, as many do [not all], look at it as a Joke.

A Joke, in the hardest of times as helped. People always passed jokes even about their current tough situations. It'll help you through it.

Germany has less than half the mortality rate (vehicle-related) than the US has but some highways don't have a speed limit.

Lowering it to 20 mph doesn't reduce or eliminate fatal collisions, it raises revenue. That's why NYC has it at 25mph almost everywhere, with 60 cameras going up every week to generate the bills.

DeBlasio has done better, reducing the speed limit by a middle school near me to 15 mph.  I'm not sure how these kids are going to survive to adulthood if they're taught that cars will stop for them.

I like those more than Kleenex :-X. I'm actually frustrated that I've been unable to find them the last few months, all local groceries have apparently switched to a different nasty Chassidish brand.

(But then again, my real nose-wiping preference is Bounty paper towels so you probably shouldn't be taking any advice from me.)

Reminds me of that story...

A Chasidishe Bochur was trying to be rebellious so he figured he'll get a TV. He walks in to bestbuy and asks the sales rep for a TV pointing at one that he likes. The rep tells him "Sorry we're not selling TVs to Hasidic boys".

Frustrated, he goes out puts on a tiny Kippah and a colored t-shirt, shortens his peyous and comes back asking for the same item. And again the rep says "Sorry we're not selling TVs to Hasidic boys".

Now furious, he goes out and decides to take it to the next level. So he hides his side curls underneath a cap, puts on some short jeans and a tank top. He gets back to the store and asks the rep "excuse me sir, can I buy that TV". Yet again the rep says "Sorry we're not selling TVs to Hasidic boys".

Surprised, the Bochur asks the rep "how'd you know?" The sales rep then tells him "that ain't no TV, it's a microwave".

Reminds me of the guy who decided to go OTD but once made a bracha by mistake, so he quickly said boroch sheim kevod malchuso l'olam voad.

I see that reply now, I hadn’t been through the whole thread yet. I appreciate humor very much. But your post was not intended to be a joke. Was it?
