The best part of driving a shitbox is that I don't have to care too much about it. (lemmy.world)

You're never the craziest person in the room is a generally good rule of thumb

It is more than just being crazy. In the US at least, I would say people are desperate and under so much pressure that lots of people are near the edge. You can very easily push them over that edge with a random interaction and you don’t want to find out what happens when you do. They aren’t necessarily crazy people though they could be.
