And I think that explains why 1 in 3 fatal bicycle accidents involve impairment due to alcohol:

ScienceDaily (Feb. 23, 2001) — Drinking alcohol and bicycling don’t mix well, say Johns Hopkins researchers, whose study of 466 Maryland bicyclists found that a third of fatally injured riders had elevated blood alcohol levels at the time of their accident. In addition, a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08 grams per deciliter – the legal level of drunkenness in most states – was found to increase the rider’s risk of fatal or serious injury by 2,000 percent.

I have a bad habit of opening links in new tabs, then looking at them later, at which point, I have no idea where the hell they came from or what they relate to.

I have this bad habit of opening wine bottles in new rooms, then finding them later, at which point, I forget where the hell they came from or what they relate to, but figure they’re already open so I might as well drink it.

We’re like twins. Almost.

Holla.

I have this bad habit of opening my eyes in the morning, and forgetting where the hell I am, how I got there, or why…at which point I glance around, do some quick calculations, and decide whether to bolt or not.  We’re like twins…wait….who the fuck are you? (~_^)

thedailywhat: Beautiful Perspective of the Day: Infographic on drug-related deaths vs. proportion of users vs. media coverage in the UK, prepared by David McCandless of Information Is Beautiful for a Guardian blog article on the subject. Note on cannabis-related deaths: The cannabis deaths figure is a bit dubious in my opinion. Firstly, how can you die from cannabis? It’s extremely non-toxic. There has never been a single documented case of fatal cannabis overdose. Also, the government’s own figures don’t tally. While drug figures from the Office Of National Statistics register 19 cannabis related deaths, the mortality stats from the same office log only 1 death. You can view the raw data used to compile this inforgraphic here. [via.] Deadliest Drugs II
