This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Driving tired is just as dangerous as driving drunk, if not more; fall asleep for a few seconds and you might drift off the road or into another car and never wake up. Better to stop at the next possible spot and take a nap than to risk it!

So don't drive drunk if I am tired? Got it

Don't drive tired if you're drunk.

No, if you're tired, get drunk. Alcohol is an upper before it's a downer, so you'll have a short whole that you are better off!

(In case this is required, this is sarcasm.)

I used to drive exhausted all the time due to my job. Two months ago I veered off the right side of the road. Immediately woke up because the van was bouncing a shit ton, then I kissed the guardrail. I might be dead if it wasn't for that guardrail. Lost my job because of it though.

As you should. Also, your job should be doing something to catch this as well, so they should be investigated by whatever authority covers this if it was work-related driving.
