What brand is your bulletproof vest? People get shot every day. Lots of 'em. If only they had taken a slight step to protect themselves, as I'm sure you have, they'd be just fine. And toilet locks! Did you make sure to put locks on all your toilets when your children were young so they couldn't fall in and drown? It happens. And toilet locks are a real thing. Snake juice. Chainmail suit for dogs/wolves/sharks (shame it's ineffective against bullets or we could kill two birds with one stone here).

Jesus hell man, there are so many dangers! If we just take a slight step to protect ourselves against each of them, we'll finally be ... say it with me now ... absolutely safe.

No thanks.

[Edit: Holy cow. Two posts in this thread and my sarcasm meter is off the charts. Gonna go ahead and eject. Leave it to the professionals.]
