Thankfully no. I accidentally hit a pheasant once. It had already crossed the road when I was travelling at 50mph, so I thought I was safe. Then, as I got to about a metre or two away, it decided to turn around and fly back across my side of the road! I couldn't slow down without causing a collision with the driver behind me so unfortunately a hit was inevitable.
I have. Many of them in fact, as I went to many different schools as a kid, moving a lot. There was a difference so huge between schools in rich school districts and poor ones, that Americans ought to wither in shame that such social inequality exists and is perpetrated on helpless children whose only defense against it is how wealthy their parents are. Schools should all receive the same funding, not be based on property taxes in their district, and sports, theater, music, and school trips, should be funded for all kids who attend, not reserved only for those whose parents can pay hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars for the privilege.
Sorry I'm a bit hot under the collar; had a brief discussion with a guy I walked in on, who was talking about certain ethnic groups being "a problem" and I did not blow my stack, but did challenge him (in admittedly strong language) on his premise that "those" people coming here from another state were the cause of all the drug problems. I pointed out that most of the arrests were people of his same ethnic group (white) and were in fact, from here.
The othering, the scapegoating, is so thick here you could stir it, and so caustic it might melt the spoon. The desire of people to shift blame for everything, onto some "other" group of people is so infantile, predictable, lamentably common, it's actually scary.
There was a silver lining, though: after that bit of lively discourse, another guy who'd been hanging back, came forward and struck up a convo with me, and turned me onto some bands I would never have heard of, and that was really nice. He'd lived in Iceland a while, and seemed interesting.
NHIE been able to keep my mouth shut as easily as other people.

Hmmm... I do tend to let things slip off my tongue sometimes. But I'm good at keeping secrets and I'm usually pretty chill. I've never been in a big argument that I'm remembering anyway. I usually keep out of drama. However I have really good and sensitive hearing so that sometimes can be troublesome.
NHIE gotten a celebrity's autograph? (I have the autographs of Country singers and a couple magicians, and some Ringling brothers & Barnum & Bailey circus autographs [possibly Bello Nock])
Sigh... I was supposed to get this autographed poster of one of my fav bands, Picturesque, but it never came in the mail... I wonder where it went... Probably lost at sea somewhere... Siiiighhhh.
