This 16-year-old is living the life you never could, in levels of autonomy you cannot even fathom. There was a time, when you had time. And now it is gone, replaced by this wretched phone you hold. Even knowledge of time accelerating compels nothing in you. You are already dead.
How long can you drive in a roundabout before you get the cops called on you? 20 minutes.

Replying to @jayforeman
We're in an era where a single, almost anonymous YouTube video churned out by a kids videos factory can change a whole generation's nursery rhyme references, if it pops up at the top of the search. It's terrifying.
