In Soviet New York, iPod bans you!
So a state senator in New York wants to ban using iPods while crossing city streets.

USA Today blogs about it. The comments section is a cesspool of wank, mostly of the righteous indignation kind. Watch how liberals are blamed for all society's ills! Marvel at how Darwin is misused over and over again! Gasp as accusations of communism are thrown around carelessly!

The stupid, it had to be shared.

ETA: BE MORE FUNNY, PEOPLE.

I do the old lady pressing repeatedly on the walk button, before checking the road carefully, then crossing the street, sans ipod.

I still got run over by a truck.

I believe that careless pedesterian will remain careless, audio distractions or not, just as wheel happy drivers will continue to vroom vroom on their merry way, innocent pedestrians in sight or not.
