I do not approve of self-driving cars.
I wish only millennials would be crashing into each other in them like when they text or put on makeup will driving full speed.
But we innocent non-millennials will be victims, too.

How does a self-driving car see the faded peeling paint lane lines under rapidly falling Michigan snow and tell that
an opioid addicted panhandler with a cardboard sign is about to step into the road to get a dollar from a guilt ridden liberal woman driver? Crash.
Bill O’Reilly’s Old School has a line:(list of things Old School likes or not) Self-driving cars? Not a chance.

Me,too.

Put your car on cruise control, take your feet away from the pedals, then try to avoid a sudden accident.

I have never had such an incident, nor am I likely to ever have one. I've owned cars with cruise control for at least 20 years now, and I don't know how to use it. I also drive a manual. You may be able to guess that I like to be in control of my car.

Benadryl

… not for motion sickness. Besides, taking it orally makes me queasy.

CBD/small amount THC will prevent and treat your nausea. Sorry, couldn't resist

Here you go: Wham-O
My Dad (an engineer) was good friends with "Spud" Melin. I don't know if Spud sent us early releases or not but they both died in 2002. We had Frisbees, Hula hoops, slip and slides, super balls, water wiggles, and sling shots but later on we had "wrist rockets" which were actually lethal - don't think they were Wham-o ... I do recall that their slingshot used surgical tubing and a leather "cup" for your load and were a lot like lawn darts - be careful who you play with! ;-)

Hyperemesis syndrome.

Besides, I do not want anything that affects my ability to think, my alertness levels, etc. And I want to keep my job.

“Hyperemesis syndrome.”

Curvilinear effect based on dosage and length of administration.

Small dosages are reliably antiemetic. Extremely large doses, especially when drug level is maintained continuously for a period of weeks or months, can be nausea inducing.
