Yep, if you're driving on a bridge in U.S. and it starts to collapse, it is not the end of the world. So don't worry. Or worry - no one seems to give a sh1t anyway. And if this report is accurate, seems like no one has been caring about it for decades...

OR BETTER YET, THIS

Never mind the bridge, I wonder how stable the guy is who owns the car on the bridge.

Definitely more stable than more than 25% of the bridges

It'll be funny when all these idiots who think the world's gonna end and who are no probably racking up some serious credit card debt thinking "the world will end anyway - what's the diff?!" - it'll be funny to see how they are gonna react when the bills start coming in. Recession ain't got sh!t on them!

I have a feeling the people out there that are convinced the world is ending in 2012 are not really the people building massive credit card debt.

You. would. be. surprised.

I had a VERY serious discussion about this with a friend, who I used to think is a LOT more rational than me. Ok, I get it - bad example, but still - this 33 year old guy, works in a hospital (smth with computers), stable, normal person. And he was trying to convince me "something will obstruct the Sun, they've found it and just aren't telling us" - ARE YOU FRIGIN KIDN ME?!?! Needless to say, I'm not following his blog anymore LOL

yeah. that is pretty absurd...

I dont think there is a significant enough population of them to really make the weirdos worth paying attention to.

I just dont see the lady in the tinfoil hat racking up credit card debt at the louis vuitton website

The people racking up debt are the ones NOT thinking about what is happening next week, much less 3 years from now...
