    Assuming you can drive through any kind of obstacle already qualifies you as a moron. Even if it’s just a cardboard box, you never know what’s inside. Doing this and then acting all entitled qualifies you as a special kind of moron.

      When I was a kid, I laughed at people swerving to avoid a paper bag. It seemed silly to me. My dad explained why they were doing it, and then chuckled as my eyes got huge and I said “OHHHH!”

          Paper bags often have glass bottles in them. Glass+tires=a bad time.

              In the US you aren’t allowed to drink alcohol in public. So they put the bottle into a paper bag.

              In the US you can’t openly drink in public, but you CAN if nobody knows what you’re drinking

          so this one time when I was a kid, I was biking through a parking lot and kicking at some garbage, because why not

          I kicked at an upright soda cup. it exploded all up my legs and looked like I’d pissed myself for the next couple hours

          same idea

        Was it because there might be a puppy or kitten inside?

            Ah, I’ve heard way more stories about bags of baby animals tossed out car windows than caltrops.

            Oh, you mean someone’s bag of caltrops might have fallen off the back of the truck? Yes I like this story better. Puppies and kittens should all be cuddled up on sofas. And only be in bags when they choose to jump in there
