That explains a lot. I'm pretty sure several of the drivers who've delivered to me must have been waylaid by multiple random encounters along the way.

I delivered pizza in college and it was a surprisingly dangerous job at times.

The actual data backs this up, as well.

I seem to remember reading a report that cab drivers and delivery guys had a higher rate of being killed on-the-job than police, at least in my part of the US. Like, 2x or 3x at least.

Delivery drivers were apparently #7 in 2018: Top 25 most dangerous jobs in the United States , police officers were #22. (27/100k vs. 14/100k)

"The fact that you think this way clearly indicates that you are under some misconceptions of which I must prove false. For if we continue this discussion under the pretense of these misconceptions, the entire basis of the discussion will be thrown off-balance."

"I suppose that makes sense, but what misconception do you think I'm under?"

"Well, you're under the misconception that you enjoy something when simply you do not. I can tell because I don't enjoy that something and my unenjoyment is purely a rational and logical conclusion."

"Wait, but...I do enjoy it."

"Oh! Why must all discussions devolve into arguments!"

So, I do try, my level best, to give people the benefit of the doubt, to assume they're coming from a place of good faith. But there are certain things that you can reveal about yourself that makes it very very difficult for me to continue to extend that benefit.

My thought process: "Oh, maybe this person isn't a total jackhole."

Three threads later: "No, definitely a jackhole."

Apropos of nothing, its going to suck when Canada is invaded and/or sold out by our Government for water. Hope I'm dead by then.

How many posts until that obvious train wreck of a thread turns overtly political?

If you guessed literally one post, you’re right.
