Maybe now that winter seems to be back we can relax a little. But yeah, it does seem like there are more crazy fights happening.
That's crazy! A teenager in London just died after a planned fight/show down at Victoria Station - what is it with youth and knife crime? It's relaly quite distressing - and yet another reminder to be as vigilant as we can be in our surroundings
@BroadwayBK The creepy thing is I'd been traveling late on that line too, just a couple of hours before this happened. This story is more awful for being so senseless...
It's so scary to think how much we take life for granted. I'm not a hippie, but I can certainly see the appeal in "mindful" living!
It's also crazy to think about all the crazy things that go on in places where we've just been or plan to be....
I still think about this one story, guys. I guess because it's so random that it's frightening. I was coming back home late on the 1/9/2/3 again last night and had this paranoid thought that at any moment someone could just pull out a knife and start stabbing for absolutely no reason...
@Uraniumfish Would you ever not take the train because of something that happened on it, though?
It doesn't seem that not taking the train is an option for pretty much everybody, except the tiny percentage who have cars. So, just think that you can also die by falling off a ladder in your own home, so there's no telling. If the fates have it in for you, then they can find many means and ways...
Don't forget car accidents, @DBLack! although in general I must admit that I do prefer walking....maybe not in December, though!
