How to trash a non-life

Quick answer: set yourself up to ambush cyclists with your car exactly where police expect you to and neighbours will also be videotaping you.

Result: no vehicles left to you, no licenses, years of “holiday” time amongst many other losers — plus big fines — plus no real future.

The choices for me the victim were poor. Rather than be crushed by heavy traffic or headbutt a hard wall at about 17 m/sec, I chose the car door... and went through to headbutt the following footpath, destroyed the stack-hat, broke lots of stuff (including a partial craniectomy), learned some interesting things about police methods, bounced through Joondalup hospital with good effort and incredible speed to fetch up at Royal Perth not many minutes later within an ace of being DOA despite the effort... got operated on by some miracle workers who turned me from essentially a lump of meat with most of a pulse back into an ambulatory, vocal, functional human within a startlingly short time.

My brain is now essentially OK — modulo some bits of Short Term Memory killled by the total loser’s antics — and the body is steadily rebuilding, so I do have a viable future as this develops. However, I truly have ZERO appreciation for a selfish waste of space and oxygen who hurts people for the hell of it, including that it had already hurt several others before applying it’s stupid malice to me.

I have many more people, however, to gladly thank for their support than I could possibly remember even with all memory cells bursting with excellent functionality. These include the more-or-less expected (but still welcome and highly special) individual family and friends, PLUG, the many helpful people in University of WA’s Computer Club, many Linux Australia people, and zillions of hard-working, motivated and indispensible medical staff (Nurses, CA’s, Doctors, Physios, OT’s, plus the very many of those magic people bearing acronyms I cannot recall), the Book-Keeping Network and so on amazingly to me. If I missed your group, that’s not your flaw at all, but that of the busy, growing and complicated consequences. There are too many other contributors for a simple list to be meaningful. However, you know who you are, and please accept that while ‘fame’ at this keyboard has escaped for now, the ever-lasting and real value which is part of what you have done (are doing) never ceases.

I’ve met seriously memorable people from all over the World, and many traditional foundations of ignorant prejudice have been forever “totalled” (permanently obsoleted) for me (e.g. gender, age, race, culture, size, much else). It hasn’t been an overall pleasant experience, yet has had pleasant moments and I’ve learned some important things (e.g. “I don’t know” is a very valuable phrase at times) and my “now” is already seeming much better than being dead or vegetalian at the hands of some utter loser.

Also, since my last significant attendance at main RPH, the steady improvements in staff conditions (staff themselves, too) and many minorish-sounding items like food are dominantly improved to excellence “across the board”. I also thank AW in advance for his sign.
