Started as a bit of fun but also gave people a chance to vent, preferably in a humorous way, but not confined to that at all.
What I know about motor sport you could carve in block letters on my little finger nail but I can still feel sorry for anyone who hits a wall at 200 clicks and a sportsman who dies engaging in his sport.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

I too have not much knowledge of racing but a death is still sad regardless, condolences to his family, and friends. Sad news.

How would Siri know when to answer "Hey Siri" unless it is listening in to everything you say?

The number of people who have no awareness of their own behaviour and have a gold medal sook when someone tries to point out that they aren't superman/wonderwoman.
Be happy all you like Franki, there's plenty of things to piss people off. Like bad tenants for example.

I'll just add one more thing. It's ok to be pissed off with something, it's dwelling on it that pisses me off.
I really need to get out of here

Fu&king C&cksucking petty antagonistic arrogant self serving MOFO's piss me off intensly. KBW wrote a song about my day today.
But never mind. Deep breathing exercises with a can of beer in front of my mouth seems to be helping already.
