But the title of this post is just "meirl". It doesn't last that long.

The car driver has to be very skilled. It is more likely that there is no danger here.

I know, right? This is clearly a reference to rapid eye movement sleep.

u/Roku-Hanmar 7d ago
REM is Rapid Eye Movement, or the stage of sleep where you dream. REM is also a band

Rem is also Swedish for belt or strap.

Also I’m high. He’s high. We all high
I was literally just referencing them in another thread yesterday.

u/Ibotenseure 7d ago
To be honest with you man, I couldn't pinpoint the reference either. I knew that this was to be some kind of joke, and most jokes involve allusions to something else, but I couldn't say what it was alluding to. I heard a bell ringing, but not clear enough

It's called crawling. They tend to do this before they learn to walk.

reminds me of the reasoning of Men In Black 1, where the new recruit shoots some suspicious youth carrying way too difficult math texts in the wrong neighborhood. Similarly, a baby crawling outside, on a rough road, happy despite the direct skin contact and what should be a scary environment, is suspicious.
my best guess is some hivemind has taken over both the baby and granny, as their expressions are the same and she does not seem the least bit worried about the baby or the incoming car, as if aware of the baby's location. She too is suspicious in how incredibly hunched her back is, yet seems jolly despite the backpains that ought to be ailing her.
the only solution is going on a kill spree running over everyone who seems too happy in order to prevent the hive mind from spreading further.

Right? There’s a reason the thought exercise is the “trolly problem”. A car could at least try and stop, if they had time enough to decide which lame to be in.

This whole scenario only really exists to present AI driving in a bad light when the reality is that an AI would never be in this situation in the first place. Only dumb ass humans who drive way too fast would find themselves in this situation. An AI would follow laws and apply common sense like slowing down before a blind curve.
It would never find itself going too fast to stop in front of an unexpected obstacle like traffic lights or a pedestrian crossing because the only way that happens is if you're too much of a moron to adjust your speed so that you are capable of stopping in the area of the road you can see.
Smart and safe drivers always make sure they can stop in the area they can see. Only morons yolo around curves just expecting the road to be clear. Sadly the world is chock full of absolute morons who do exactly that. And that's a big reason why we have so many car accidents.

That’s a really good point. I was thinking the baby at first, but your perspective makes a lot of sense. Anyway thanks for humoring me, I appreciate it haha

I'd argue take out the baby. The granny has more friends, family and acquaintances that her death would affect compared to a 6ish month old baby who doesn't have colleagues, in laws, friends.

That’s exactly what I was thinking, I just couldn’t figure out how to articulate it. ok the baby is my final answer lol

The obvious choice is going off the road if you for some reason can't stop after already slowing down because of the corner and seeing the red light.

There isn't another song that comes close to describing unrequited love. The desperation, the vulnerability, the way its all described.
It's a rare perfect song.

If a baby manages to crawl over the street unsupervised it'll happen again and next time you won't be present to avoid it. Basically a dead man crawling.

There is no way for car to identify human by gender and age. Most likely to see as 'Human' and 'dog'.
