Guys like this are a bigger distraction than cell phones. Should we ban them from running where drivers can see them?
From the Biology of Technology blog:
“Hot shirtless guys and scantily clad girls running on the side of the road are MUCH more of a distraction and hazardous than cell phones. So let’s pass a law against hot people running. They’re already hot so why do they need to run anyway? Of course, non-hot people may continue to run and should continue to do so. Until they become hot, then they must stop.
If I cannot be trusted as an adult to do two things at once like talk on the cell and drive, then I cannot be trusted to not be distracted when hot people are running on the sidewalks of busy streets.”
I’m not sure I agree with blogger Rick Howington on this subject (the data’s pretty clear–you’re much likelier to get into an accident with a cell phone than without), but I like the way he reached into his inner Teabagger anger and pulled it off. The real danger, in my view, is watching hot people running while you’re driving …to pick up your date!
