Banning the iPod

ZOMG… Read this!
Where to even start?! I made a list:
- What ever happened to living in a free country? Can’t I more or less do what I want?
- Why is this suddenly a problem? What about books? Couldn’t you get hit reading a book and walking through a crosswalk? Walkmans (walkmen?) have been around since the seventies, for crying out loud. Why do we need a law 30 years after the fact?
- I’m a big believer in evolution, and if you’re too stupid to walk and listen to your iPod at the same time, then I don’t want you surviving to breed.
- On general principles, you shouldn’t use the terms “fiddling” and “blackberry” together in a sound byte. You sound retarded.
- Super Mario Brothers on a Game Boy? Why not Pong on an Intellivision? Where has this senator been, anyway? Pick a game & console from THIS MILLENIUM before you get all hopped up on righteous indignation, please.
Stupid lawmakers…

K one guy commented on the story and I had to include it here as an afterthought cause I’m still laughing:
What a great law
It will protect pedestrians from being hit by drivers talking on their cell phones, listening to their ipods, checking their email on their blackberries, looking at their nav screens, shaving, doing their hair, changing the station on their radios, looking for cops in their rear view mirrors, etc…….

Is there anything about touching yourself in your car in a familiar way?
