Headline: Family Of Seven Injured In Amish Buggy Accident

Is this absolutely hilarious or a tragedy?

rm' · 28th October 2002, 21:07

I'm a cruel and heartless person. Society doesn't like my kind, but I laugh in spite of it.

fish · 28th October 2002, 21:10

The sadist in me laughs in rage. "LOL."

Shenlong · 28th October 2002, 21:13

"Amish Buggy Accident"

The sick side of me says "Come on!". The other just says "Whatever". Both laugh because I'm drunk on Jack anyway...

From reading Xerxes title of the story, I thought I was due for an article about an accident that happened because of crap materials the Amish had, not a motorist accident.

Yet I still say: Get a freaking car! It freaking has airbags, seatbelts, and cool neat stuff. None the less more comfortable seats than they have on a buggy.

And in a completely unrelated (or not...) story....

Does this happen all the time?

henry3k56 · 28th October 2002, 21:37

I'm sure they were well prepared for y2k.

cmountford · 28th October 2002, 22:05

I'm sad because of the tragic accident, but I laugh at the thought of a horse-drawn cart on a highway.

It's kind of complicated...it depends on what part of the article you're referring to. Just thinking about a horse-drawn carriage on a modern highway is enough to crack me up, but the accident was awful.

flatmatt · 28th October 2002, 22:05

Well, they [in the first story] didn't die, so...

cmountford · 28th October 2002, 22:09

Still, would it be better to die and not be in any misery, or would you rather live and be possibly crippled and in pain for a good part of the rest of your life?

Just imagine how much it could change your life. If you wanted to grow up to be a mechanic and you lost both of your hands in an accident, wouldn't it seriously cause you to re-think your plans?

lmfao

henry3k56 · 29th October 2002, 00:24

Think of it this way, it was a low-speed accident. Not high-speed like these crazy fools do on the Interstate and end up killing several people because they're drunk. (Usually the drunk driver always survives..why!??!)

Simple. Alcohol anesthetizes the person, keeping their systems from going into shock after a serious trauma. Also, drunks tend not to create any resistive force during the impact, sparing them alot of the secondary injuries (muscle strains, sprains, etc.) that can occur.

I want the death penalty be an automatic sentence at every drunk driving case that results in an innocent life being taken away.
