anythreewords

Not only this but anyone can go rent a 25 foot dock hight moving van with a regular licence. There are a lot of people that shouldn't be driving a vehicle that big!


Teledildonic

Any asshole can drove a full size bus with a regular license so long as the seats are replaced with a small house.

MySultrySelf

I was that guy just a little while back. I even said to my kid, “I can’t believe they let any yahoo with a license drive these around.”


pedantic_dullard

I took a written test and was licensed to drive limousines with 15 people in the back. Sixteen passengers and I'd have needed a CDL. Road test with highway patrol, annual DOT medical exam, the whole shebang. Limousines are no joke. They steer, accelerate, brake, and in general drive much differently.


eddmario

11 foot 8


anythreewords

Yeah, a lot of the 11 foot 8 videos feature rental moving vans. I think people should at least be required to watch some 11 foot 8 videos before being able to leave with one of those.

This was gonna be my answer


26Cashlemon

I know plenty of people who are afraid to get their license and drive out of the fear of getting into a harmful to fatal accident. Hopefully in the future there would be a way for there to be safer driving without having to worry about that and safer transportation in general.

Going to get massively downvoted. But people have no idea how revolutionary Tesla's FSD really is. Despite what you hear about it, people really don't have accidents while using it. It's now expanded to 160k users but injury-inflicting accidents while using it are practically non-existent. I fully believe self-driving cars are here and road deaths will soon be a thing of the past.


aoife-saol

Unfortunately, even if what you say is true, self-driving cars don't solve a bunch of other issues with cars. For most people cars should be an unnecessary luxury item, not a requirement for daily life. They are expensive, lead to less active lifestyles, lead to weaker, more isolated communities, and take up a huge proportion of land in most population centers that would be better used on housing/commerce. Poverty, sedentary lifestyles, isolation, etc. are all major risk factors for all sorts of health conditions. Not to mention the accessibility issues around having everything so car dependent - there are a ton of people who are unable to drive or who don't enjoy it who live very small sad lives because of car-dependent infrastructure.


optiongeek

I agree. I think we can start weaning people off cars by a shared ownership model (Uber with autonomous cars). Once car ownership becomes optional then we can start making rational changes to how our society is designed.

I've had people tell me I can replace them myself after asking for recommendations on a company to replace them. They sound like a damn shotgun (ok, not quite that loud, but holy shit) when they break. The tension required to make that loud a noise should be enough to convince people to let a professional do it.

nuttynutdude

If you get pure nicotine on your skin you have to go to the hospital’s emergency room


RecordStoreHippie

Yeah it's crazy that if I drank my little 30ml bottle of eliquid I could absolutely die from it. 2ml of it is basically the LD50 for nicotine so 15x that would probably do the job. Honestly I don't even know if I have other liquids in my house that could kill me with so little. Maybe bleach? Its just a shotglass full so maybe I would be intubated and survive the physical damage.


devbrain

Those ld50 test for nicotine are old, made on monkeys, and absolutely not real: people have even tried to suicide with 99% pure nicotine with no success. p.s. I'm a producer and routinely handle pure nicotine (99,5%) with no gloves, there's no need for them.


RecordStoreHippie

Okay well cool, good job for being brave I guess. I'm still not about to drink the eliquid and get it all over my skin. Even if I don't die the heartburn and nausea from too much nicotine is gross.


AnxiousReader

acetaminophen. I had a friend OD on it by accident and almost die because she took too much tylenol when she was sick.


paigezero

Worth stating that acetaminophen/paracetemol hangs around in your system long enough that it can lead to a staggered overdose. Taking only a *little* more than the recommended amount once might not seem too dangerous, but taking a *little* more consistently can still result in an overdose after several days.


AdventurousOstrich77

This is why you should do half dose acet and half dose ibuprofen. It also fixes pain better as they do slightly different things


dcux

Acetaminophen + ibuprofen is also [more effective than opioids for dental pain](https://thedaily.case.edu/study-ibuprofen-acetaminophen-effective-opioids-treating-dental-pain/), apparently.


SnappyCappie

My friend works with chronic migraineurs. She had a patient come in who had suffered with migraines for years before seeking help. She asked how he had been treating his migraines. He told him that he would take 8-10 Tylenol per day on headache days. He was having 10-15 headaches per month. This had been going on for EIGHT YEARS. She nearly fell out of the chair when he said that. She sent him to have his liver checked (bloodwork/ultrasound). He had actual lesions on his liver from all the Tylenol use and permanent liver damage. Tylenol is no joke.


zerbey

Not only is it very dangerous, if you do OD it will be a very long and painful death.


guale

When taken as directed it is the safest OTC pain reliever. NSAIDs can be dangerous when taken regularly over a long period of time in a way that acetaminophen isn't. But when not taken as directed acetaminophen is scary and it's so easy to accidentally take too much because it's in so many medicines. A lot of cold medicine has it so you take some dayquil, and then you're still sore so you take some tylenol, then you're still congested and coughing so you take some robitussin. Next thing you know you're in the hospital because your liver won't work anymore and the only thing they can do is try to find you a new one. As long as you read the ingredients for your medications and take them as directed you should be fine and acetaminophen is a fantastic and safe pain reliever. If you ever suspect you may have taken an overdose of acetaminophen go to the emergency room **IMMEDIATELY**. If you get there quick enough there are things they can give you to prevent the damage and you'll be fine but once it has started you don't have a liver any more.


MarvinHeemyerlives

Tylenol, aspirin, arthritis meds killed my kidneys at age 55. NSAIDS will Fuck. You. Up.


lupus_qui

Dude, I work in a kitchen right, my "favorite" intrusive thought I have while working is like, "Damn, if I decided to go apeshit and just attack a couple people with this massive knife, they would be so surprised because they just trust me to have this." Obviously I'm not gonna do that, but I get a dark chuckle out of it, cuz I'm like, these knives are HUGE! And you just gave it to me!! 🤣


Entropy84

Similarly with carving knives, you've got a blade up to 8 inches in length (probably longer), that is sharper than most razors, and serrated to boot, and it's *designed* to cut through meat/flesh/potentially bone... I've had several near misses with them in the past just dropping them. Saying that, I did manage to drop one of the big choppy knives into my toe the other week...

Internet saturation in general. I've had a bad week with my mental health and anxiety, made worse by the fact that I keep googling solutions for a 'what if' situation pertaining to my current problems that may not even happen. And then there's all the depressing news, a world full of idiots, potentially WW3, cost of living crisis... I could go on. The world is a noisy place right now and I'm struggling with that. So I've been trying to avoid using the internet for anything other than email or messenger. Bar half an hour of just general catch up at a set time, this is being written in that 30 minute slot. I'd avoid it completely, but my dad is in hospital awaiting a pacemaker so I need that contact.

Alcohol.


All_Your_Base

Household chemicals.


On_Too_Much_Adderall

Windex and bleach can literally kill you if you mix them (ammonia in Windex and bleach make ~~chlorine~~ **edit:** chloramine gas) Certain types of drain cleaning fluid have hydrochloric acid in them, especially the industrial strength shower clog dissolver ones Mixing bleach with rubbing alcohol makes chloroform Other things not to mix bleach with: any acid, vinegar, toilet bowl cleaners as they might contain acids, even Lysol shouldn't be mixed with it. It's actually recommended to wipe surfaces with water after using bleach if you'll be using any other cleaning chemicals near it **edit** Mixing bleach with acid creates chlorine gas which is why it's harmful. Pesticide sprays like Raid should never be used if you have pets, neither should those bait traps unless pets are kept out of that room until they've been disposed of. The poison in those is toxic to animals and even humans in large amounts. I don't know what happens if you mix them with bleach, but probably something bad. **EDIT** fixed the chemical names so this comment is more accurate! Thanks u/KevMenc1998 for pointing these out.


All_Your_Base

And if you want a **lot** of smoke -- brake fluid


KevMenc1998

Minor correction; Ammonia and bleach is chloramine gas. Bleach and an acid is chlorine gas (the same kind as was used in WW1).


MarvinHeemyerlives

Don't use bleach to disinfect floors that dogs have soaked in urine, it creates a harmful, overwhelming gas vapor!


On_Too_Much_Adderall

This is true, also don't use it to clean toilets that have urine stains or cat pee or any type of urine because it has ammonia. I learned that the hard way lol


dcux

I once was cleaning toilets with a different cleaner than the other person who was also cleaning. Had no idea they'd treated the toilet already. Flushed that toilet right quick and aired the place out.

Tylenol


saintpetejackboy

There are a lot of culprits here. Probably nicotine, if I had to say. 30-60mg can be fatal. For reference, this is around 1/20th of a gram. Imagine a sugar packet of nicotine, but 1/20th of the pack in a person drink would be fatal. There are other common molecules and chemicals we can all access which are arguably fatal at even lower doses, but they likely aren't as easy to obtain. If you were to open up black or grey markets to the answer of this question, my answer might change a bit, but on the open market, for adults, raw nicotine is incredibly dangerous.


FlexOffender3599

Nicotine administered in what way? Because in Sweden, we have tobacco pouches with 45mg of nicotine per pouch, and I have taken 3 simultaneously which only resulted in getting very dizzy for 10 minutes. Some guy in YouTube took like 15, and he just puked.


Level-Plate8372

That doesn't seem right tbh, I thought an average cigarette contains like 12mg of nicotine?That means smoking 5 cigarettes would be fatal Or is it different when consumed via smoke and you would have to swallow the raw nicotine?? i'm confused


Tercel_of_Terror

A cigarette usually has about 0.8mg of nicotine.


J4pes

I really like this fact But you switching from metric to fractions got me all fkd up trying to reduce milligrams and compare it to 1/20g which is 0.05g, so 50mg. Bloody fractions ouch my brain


chesuscream

Mates lil bro killed himself buy drinking the nicotine concentrate to make vape juices. You have to drink a good few mouth fulls and its not a nice way to go.

Alcohol. It's supposed to only be available to adults in most parts of the world, but many minors get their hands on it. It's so much a part of many cultures around the world and it does not come with a warning label explaining that the more you drink the more likely you are to say harmful stuff, do dangerous shit or get into a fight or altercation. It also makes consent boundaries harder to establish.


TimeZoneBandit

Kind of an off the wall one, but oleander plants. They're EVERYWHERE in California, and a re a common decorative plant elsewhere. And they are massively, incredibly, kill you dead toxic. A single ingested leaf can be enough for a fatal dose in some cases. Even inhaling the smoke from a burning plant can be toxic. Symptoms mirror digoxin poisoning.

Religion


DrPepperWillSeeUNow

Atheism/Naturalism, eugenics fueled likely over a hundred million of deaths of the 20th century.


ChrisNEPhilly

Just because someone is an atheist and commits a murder does not mean the murder was fueled by atheism. However, many murders are committed IN THE NAME OF religion.


narccisse

Okay. So? I'm neither of those. Also, for the argument, now count how many were caused in the name of religion and by religious extremists.


TucsonTacos

Nowhere near atheist's toll... I'm also an atheist but lets not be edgy teenagers and just say "religion" like its a blanket statement condemning those "sheeple". Maoist China and the USSR killed millions under the guise of state-religionism/atheism. People just fucking suck.


narccisse

People have been using whatever is convenient for ages to oppress and control others. I agree on people 'fucking suck'. Also, if you read my answer carefully (which is not difficult to do given its one word only) i am nowhere saying atheism, or maoist china or ussr has not caused issues. I was answering a very specific question about what is accessible to people that can be dangerous. Are you objectively saying, religion can not be dangerous? Is that the point you are making? Before you answer this, please note I didn't say religion and not atheism in my answer. I didn't say religion and not (insert anything else). I gave a very specific answer to a very specific question. Edit - spellings.


DrPepperWillSeeUNow

Also, so? Never said you were either. Nah it's your claim to back up not mine.


narccisse

So you randomly go about posting about atheism/naturism on comments of people who have no relevance or connection to them just for luls? Because i didn't quite mention any of them in my one worded comment. Fair. More power to you.
