gokart

"Do not operate the unit while operating a vehicle (such as a bicycle, motorcycle or go-kart)."

This is one of the printed warnings for a new electronic recording device I received recently. Thank god they told me that shit about the go-kart because next week I was planning on going to a slick track and dictating the experience to myself--a very post-modern treatise on the experience of experiencing the classic American activity of go-karting.

Who the fuck are these people writing these manuals? Unfortunately, they probably had to include the warning because some jackass decided it would be a good idea to make verbal memos while driving a go kart, motorcycle or bicycle. Gods what is this world coming too? Go-karts, jeeeez.
