By some estimates, cell phone use while driving accounts for some 1.6 million accidents a year. That’s a lot of insurance claims!
But inconvenience aside, there is actual life at stake. Not to bring you too far down on your Friday, but people are dying all so you can see the gif of a dog’s disembodied head flapping its floppy ears your friend just sent you.
Before we move on, let’s just get that out of the way, and you’d better not be driving right now:
Well the New Zealand Transportation Agency has come up with a fantastic method for getting your driving friend not to put your life at risk, and it naturally involves some gay romance, as all good plans should.
How about we take this to the next level?

I don’t drive, and I STILL keep my dumb(ass) phone in my bookbag. Otherwise it interferes with my reading!

Funny.

I crashed my car once on the sidewalk because I was texting on whats*app. If I had my boyfriend with me, this would not have happened.

My life partner views driving as a waste of time and is on the phone constantly, typing in phone numbers or passwords. One time we were hurtling down the interstate when he headed directly for the guardrail. I had to grab the wheel to prevent disaster. He’s had several accidents over the years. When I tell him that I should drive he claims that he gets car sick in the passenger’s seat. When I ask him to stay off the phone for the 5 or 10 minutes it will take to reach our destination he says no. He should know better as he’s a physician with a degree in Public Health. He will soon be my ex.

The LGBT community; in particular the gay community worldwide is guilty of glorifying youth, worshipping the physique which comes with youth and disdains everyone else; the fat and the older. West Hollywood, Miami and the Castro district area in San Francisco are littered with gyms and shops selling protein suppliers, tans and plastic surgery…Gay men in these gay ghettos look plastic and identical. They have perfect skin and teeth but their innards are corroded from being caustic towards anyone who does not resemble a gym hunk. It is a sad existence indeed.
