    Don’t forget about the bugs! Bees and wasps, funnelled right at your face. Pure, car crash convenience.

      I’ll be honest. I think insects are either learning not to go around roads or there are way fewer insects. I can’t remember the last time I had a bug on my windshield

        The insect apocalypse is real.

        Every gas station used to carry bug-b-gone to get the guts off your windshield and headlights.

        We’re something like 75% down seasonally and 80% down midsummer since 2000.

          I hate bugs but it makes me sad for the critters that eat bugs because they’re generally awesome and cute.

        Yes, the insects have been getting smarter, avoiding roads and living happy lives on lush meadows without disturbing us.
        That’s the reality I chose to believe in!
