      It rained on my wedding day and we saw nothing ironic about it.

          No, it’s just that it was closer to mercury, what with it being liquid and all.

          Now if it was raining anvils and girders on my wedding day…

    isn’t driving more dangerous than smoking these days? Traffic fatalities in the US are really high.

      The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that smoking (including exposure to secondhand smoke) is linked to around 480,000 deaths per year in the United States.

      According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), roughly 40,000 people die in motor‐vehicle crashes in the US each year.

      Smoking accounts for roughly 12 times more deaths annually than motor vehicle accidents in the US

        There’s probably a few cancer cases attributed entirely to smoking that vehicle emissions might’ve also helped hasten.

        While these numbers don’t take into account the amount of people doing either task, I imagine the placements won’t change much

      Vehicular death in the US is startling. ~45,000 deaths a year, same a gun deaths. And with half the gun deaths being suicides and most of the rest gang related and other villainy, that makes the randomness of dying in traffic even scarier.
