| 0:00.0 | What great things can't we have anymore because of, well, idiots. |
| 0:05.0 | Years ago, Long John Silvers would donate their excess food to a local shelter. |
| 0:10.0 | Then, one idiot tried to get rich by suing the chain, saying that the donated food was tampered with, |
| 0:15.0 | even alleging it was deliberately poisoned to kill the homeless population. |
| 0:19.0 | The case went nowhere, but it made all of the |
| 0:21.6 | local restaurants hesitant to donate, and now none of them donate any food at all. This hit all |
| 0:27.2 | of the convention centers and large event spaces. We have to throw away so much food now, |
| 0:32.4 | even if it's individually packaged. My high school used to do a big breakfast buffet for graduating seniors on the last day of |

| 1:18.4 | you that a lot of humans have not mastered pooping and not having its spray all over the walls, |
| 1:23.5 | and that lots of people like to do the deed in public toilets. I'm in so much disbelief because on the one hand, people can't wipe their own butts, |
| 1:30.7 | but on the other they can drive 80 miles per hour in organised lanes, |
| 1:34.5 | three times a day, every day for years, as not get into an accident once, while sober anyway. |
| 1:40.8 | You should watch the YouTube video of East Asia four-way streets with scooters. It's insane. |
| 1:45.5 | It looks like clusters of bees and nobody's hitting each other. Effective over-the-counter |
