I Tried 'Rawdogging' My Commute For a Week; Here's What Happened

Let's not kid ourselves: TikTok is trash. I mean, so is Facebook. And NotTwitter. The internet in general. All the promise of an Information Superhighway that just became a Sociological Cesspool.

It's hard to keep up with TikTok trends. One recent trend involved 'rawdogging' (don't Google that) a plane flight. The non-pr0n interpretation of 'rawdogging' means to spend the entire flight without satiating yourself with a smartphone/tablet/newspaper/book... anything traditionally used to quiet the intrusive thoughts. I have an hour commute each way, so I decided to give it a whirl. What's the worst that could happen? Read on.

Rawdogging a Commute

This meant no music, no talk radio, no audiobooks...nothing. Just me, my dumb brain, the road, and all of the unfortunate co-commuters. I decided to voice record my commute, because those intrusive thoughts need to get out.

Some highlights:

How did it get so loud in here?
Nice turn signal, a$$h0le!
Is that supposed to twitch so much?
A Mercedes sh!tbox. Nice.
Turn on your headlights, dumba$$!
Why won't my eye stop twitching?
This is usually where Ben Maller starts claiming that he won

Why did I buy this piece of sh!t?
Wonder if I can Grand Theft Auto that trailer if I go fast enough
NO. F#CK YOU, A$$HOLE!
The twitching. Just stop. Please.
That's a nice sunrise!
Hey Google what's the most efficient way to kiOH RIGHT I can't use that right now.

[parking at the station] Oof. Never doing that again.

Yeah. 0/10 do not recommend.
