Ask Lemmy

If The Thing happened to me I would be dead and a grotesque alien would be using my body parts

We were in slow traffic and a car is trying to leave a parking lot. We give the other car some space to merge in, and they take it, but for the opposite way (passed us and entered going the opposite way we were going). It was a big infraction of the road rules. Right behind the guy was a cop car, I still remember his face, like "did I really just see this right in front of me?". The cop turned on the lights and followed the rule breaker, we were laughing our asses off inside the car. The whole thing felt scripted out of a comedy schetch of something.

A less fun one was during the first lockout of the pandemic, I was standing at the window seeing a cop car slowly going by outside with big loudspeakers: "Stay at home. If you show simptoms of cough of fever call XXX. Stay at home. Mask use in public spaces is mandatory" Felt like the start sequence of a post apocaliptic movie or something.

I went trough the old pictures of my granddad, turns out he was the head of a european accident commission.

i saw him standing in a cooling facility full of human body bags, two times. one was a flight accident, one was a whole camping site that burned down in spain or portugal.

was like in the eighties and seventies. he had also pictures of him standing next to military jets and foreign politicians and stuff.

I crashed in a car with my wheelloader because i was staring after an afftractive women that went by on a bike.

you know, like in a comedy movie. was not a hard crash though, luckily.
