Re: Why do so many Americans die falling off ladders?
Did you know that domestic solar cells have a higher fatality rate per unit electricity produced than any other form of electricity generation? More than coal, nuclear, hydroelectric or any other.
The reason is simply that so many home handymen try to install their own solar cells, and fall off ladders.

For every human action, there is a rationalisation and a reason. Only sometimes do they coincide.

I wouldn't let that worry you. Just learn to take the stares, and move onwards and upwards.Gawdzilla Sama wrote:That would lead to an escalation of the situation.mistermack wrote:But surely there are steps that people could take, to sort it out?Gawdzilla Sama wrote:I don't think you folks understand the gravity of the situation.
While there is a market for shit, there will be assholes to supply it.

It's the upwardly mobile society here.
The corporate ladder is lubricated with alcohol.
We drink, we climb, we fall.

Because white men can't climb.

Why men die first

Yes. Men die because they actually do things. Well done.

Except that, in this case, Gallstones is right. Women are generally not so stupid with regard to reckless and dangerous behaviour. As a male, I am allowed to criticise my own gender. Men are often stupid when it comes to dangerous behaviour.

No jokes that have men as the subject--got'cha', even if they are standing on ladders in a ladder thread.

So? What of it? Do you think the Wright brothers would've acheived anything without dangerous behaviour? What about the first men on the moon?Blind groper wrote:Except that, in this case, Gallstones is right. Women are generally not so stupid with regard to reckless and dangerous behaviour.

What was implied by Gallstone's post was that men die needlessly out of stupidity were as women are oh so smart.

But why did you even feel you had to make it about men instead of just pointing out a bunch of idiots without reference to sex?Gallstones wrote:Oookay.Animavore wrote:I'm just countering your sexism with sexism.
