Comment Distraction. (Score 2, Insightful) 262

When you're driving you should be concentrating on driving, that's it, anything else can lead to an accident because your mind is not on the task at hand.

So, no, you shouldn't be pissing about sending texts, if you don't like it, get a bus/train where you can text to your hearts delight.

If you're so f**kin important that you need to text, then get a chauffeur.

No, not that telling.

The Tunguska event created an explosion 1000 times more powerful than the bomb dropped on Hiroshima and the meteor was smaller than 140m, estimated at 100m. That was over 100 years ago, Earth is a bit more populated now and a hit like that could easily wipe a large city of millions out.
