One of friends back in the day would lecture me on having a phone case. “why don’t you just not drop it?” I was like, dude, accidents happen. “I’ve never dropped my phone he’d say.” I swear, like a month after that happened, his friend stepped on his phone and a month after that he dropped his phone when taking it out of his pocket outside a burger joint.
I didn’t have a go about it. He’s not one of those that takes those types of jabs well.
The scary thing, then, is lessons like “Look both ways before crossing the street”. You fail that sort of lesson the hard way, and you don’t get a chance to learn anything.

Some people have to learn about best practices the hard way.

Humans are unique in their ability to learn from the mistakes of others and their blanket refusal to do so.
