Default Manspreading

Guys, you might think it’s cool to hang your left knee or your left foot out of your cart while moving; do you have any idea what’s going to happen if that knee or foot hits an oncoming cart or an immovable object?

Get some common sense…..

...Or a moveable one?

Years back I was driving a pickup truck doing about 60 mph with my left elbow out the window. A hornet hit my forearm hard enough to squash it, driving the stinger deeply and painfully into my arm. Not fun!

Nor would it be fun if one of these leg-out-the-side drivers collected a hornet in the crotchal area.

Never understood why people hang their left arm out the window. Too many things can happen none of them good

I recently saw a man with left leg out the side of the golf cart, but what really caught my eye was the loose BRACE already on the leg. Guess he did not learn his lesson??

I sometimes have to go into the other lane when passing one of these jutting legs. That is in a car. I have only seen this maybe once in 17 years being done by a woman.

Makes one wonder how in the heck did these morons live to an age to be eligible for retirement. But, on the other hand we do live in a free country and everyone is allowed to make stupid choices.

But some people manage to make more stupid choices than others

Does anyone remember the Burma Shave advertisements along the roads in the 1950's?

One said:

Don't stick you elbow
Out too far.
It might go home
In another car.

I once worked with a guy that had his left arm out the window, he was side swiped by a truck and lost his arm.

But, but, but, the boys really enjoy the fresh air. And those golf carts don’t have enough leg room.

90% of the time when one of “those guys” pass by I look at them and, they are “hefty boys”. The gams simply do not naturally stay together…

Hmm makes one wonder if something else could be in danger.
