Person A: hey why do you look so tired and have bite marks all over your neck?

Person B, who got fucked within an inch of their life the night before and is about to invent vampires: oh haven’t you heard?

#and that mans name was lord byron

You made it better

No, it was John Polidori. Byron wrecked him thoroughly the night before. Facts only.

Thank you for your correction. There can only be facts in this gothic dragging

here’s a compilation of different people driving box trucks into a low bridge over and over

It’s worth knowing a few fun facts, courtesy of 11foot8.com:

  • They can’t raise the bridge because it’s a train trestle, and raising it would require closing and modifying miles of busy track.
  • They can’t lower the road because it’s directly over a sewer main.
  • They can’t ban trucks entirely because there are too many local deliveries.
  • That section of road has a speed limit of 25 mph, numerous signs alerting drivers to the 11’8" limit, and recently they added a sensor that activates the stoplight and a flashing “overheight warning” sign so that drivers have to stop and think really hard about going forward.
  • The clearance is actually nearly three inches more than 11’8", the maximum deviation from the signage allowed.
  • Trucks have been getting stuck or damaged since the 1960s.

The guy who runs the website (and owns the cameras) says he sees a lot more trucks pull up to the stoplight, look at the warnings, and turn off onto the side road, but about once a month, someone hits the bridge.

why is this video so satisfying

i may not have my shit together, but at least i’m not driving trucks into infamous bridges
