I was watching the music video to Free Bird that came out recently and it literally ruins the song. It's basically all about consumerism helping you cope with how nothing life is. The consumerism even seems empty. Is happiness about Libertas (radical freedom at the expense of others), Epicureanism (comfy connection with family and freedom from the system), Stocism (Exhibiting virtue where one has control), Seeking ever greater pleasures...

Something else? What do you guys think?

So you've never ridden your motorcycle within a few feet of another vehicle? You don't think that vehicle could suddenly interact with you in a way that is impossible to react to? You are incorrect if you think that.

I've ridden from the east coast to the west coast of America man, was a legendary experience. You're just a self foretelling defeatist who assumes the worst in not only others but yourself.

Theres dudes who have ridden continents without crashing.

So you've never driven within a few feet of another vehicle or are claiming to have superpowers? I believe that you have ridden your motorcycle close to other vehicles and were fortunate that none did anything unexpected ever.

But if something unexpected happened you would likely be horribly mutilated.

>mutilated
Not with good gear, and given majority of motorcycle accidents happen with only the rider and no other vehicles you are statistically fine ya pussy
