If by cure you mean, to confuse you to a point where you actually forget your own problems… Then yes.

Life is fair somehow. I’m sure that future Alien archeologists will imply our extinction to some unclear natural phenomenon, because

never understood why kids are taught to look left twice. the first look is redundant because the second one updates your knowledge about the traffic situation anyway. just look right and left.

kernelle,

You’re presuming people are paying attention to everything all of the time, which they don’t. Humans need that extra level of redundancy to mitigate our own shortcomings. Also, we look twice right as well! Once while standing still, the second time instinctively when you’re already crossing in case something changed. Would you be required to do this 100% of the time? Probably not, but learning from a young age you can’t trust one look is good practice in more ways than one.

No. I’m assuming they don’t — that’s why I see no point to look left first

kernelle,

Looking one time each way before crossing a road very clearly assumes you have seen every danger from one glance, otherwise you wouldn’t be confident in crossing the road.

The point of the second look left factors in the uncertainty that creeps in when you look right and spend time on the decision making process. It doesn’t feel like much but a lot can and does at times happen in that moment. You also lose some focus on what was happening on the left side because you need to shift your attention to the right. It’s like a quick refresh because once the decision is made to cross you can’t always take it back. As for you assessment of it being redundant I get where you are coming from but it’s more of a percentage of effectiveness thing. The first look left might only add another 5-10% to the the accuracy but that’s where most the errors can be prevented

Flumsy,

You first look into the direction the cara are coming from (left in your case) and wait until you can cross the road. Then you check the other side just in case and while crossing the street, you look in the direction the cars are coming from again just in case something crazy happens.

If you look right first and then left, there night be cars coming from the left in which case you’d have to wait until they pass, then look right and then left while crossing the road. So your proposal would lead to one extra “looking to the side” if there happened to be a car coming.

Would have been nice to use actual salame and not that American abomination, but yes can confirm that it’s true.

ComradeKeen, in And the world was flat, like an Italian pizza

No one asked or wanted this comment but pepperoni was first created in NYC about 100 years ago. By Italian immigrants, sure, but that doesn’t support my annoying joke ruining reply.

Artyom,

Italians were also invented about 100 years ago, meme still holds.

rimorso,

Italy as country is about 160 years old, people living in the Italian peninsula have been called Italians for a few millenia tho

Zeth0s, (edited )

Thanks, so I don’t have to be that “actually” guy mentioning that 99% of Italians have never seen pepperonis in their life. You saved me

Sotuanduso,

It wasn’t brought back to Italy much?

Zeth0s, (edited )

No, its taste isn’t something that Italians would appreciate. It tastes like a cheap mix of a cheap German frankfurter and cheap calabrese 'nduja. It’s almost impossible to find it in Italy.

I have never seen it in my life in Italy

Prunebutt,

I thought that was just regular salami

You’re chart is missing American’s Army, which was funded by the government.

DragonTypeWyvern,

On the plus side, that one might have actually saved some lives by teaching future child soldiers CPR.

Which, ya know, probably puts it at the head of the curve, propaganda wise, right?

Baby steps.
