Safety matters, but having lived matters even more.

As Hunter S Thomas said: “Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!””
-
Life should be whatever you want it to be. You want to chill the fuck out? You do you. Life, however, should not be full of regrets. Which largely stem from not allowong yourself to do what you want, whether it be from fear, pressure by other people, or certain expecations.
Quotes tend to be nice motivational forces but end up being very simplistic in a world that could not be more complex.

Fuck yeah!

Amen brother

Yeah but what right do you have to push that onto someone who can't consent? Sure, let's let my baby smoke weed and sit on my shoulders while I ride roller coasters, cause if he dies at least he had fun!
-
Quote would mean more if he didn't kill himself.
At least jump out of a plane with no parachute, Hunter.

'Say

Yeah, this photo is fake, but when I see boomer comments on other sites on photos all I can think is "survivor bias"
-
Yawn.
Safety Nazi.

This is just what life was like back then. People were wild, and free, and stupid, and happy.

And racist, and coughing a lot,
Edit: I don’t think my kids ever even had a lung oyster
-
Some people are still racist

The man pictured here is only 23 years old.

Who do you think took the picture?
-
Your friends who wanted to go motorcycling the day your wife was out of town.

I've heard this one. It was the wife's heart!

This is me and my dad. It isn’t, but it is.
-
My dad took both me and my brother (at the same time) for rides like this
-
Mostly I just remember the burns on my legs from the engine.
And then the motorcycle being broken and never getting fixed. I suspect my mom sabotaged it.

I can't see the kid's face clearly enough to tell if they're having the time of their lives or if they're absolutely terrified.
-
Yes.

It's on the stand...
-
It’s not the stand. It’s the foot peg and the shift pedal.
-
100%
-
It isn't on the stand but I think it's a reasonable and value comment, to raise the question. People shouldn't downvote you.

Nah, this was super common when I was growing up. We all used to commute by motorcycle, even though we had a family car. We did wear helmets. I know it's still common all over the world. I'm laughing now, cause my mother was super protective when I was inside the house, but of course riding on a motorcycle with a cheap plastic helmet was no worry for her. We thankfully never had an accident.

The most I’ve seen was family of 7 on a motorbike in Cambodia. The pots and pans and plastic I’ve seen people wear in Saigon was always pretty nuts. With the big difference being they’re typically not going very fast.
