No matter what we do ... it seems there's always something invented to protect, keep us from getting hurt. Safety belts so we won't be thrown out of our cars in an accident. Air bag to buffer us from a crash. Stop lights to keep us from occupying the same space at one time. These are just examples of things to protect us in case ... so we won't get hurt. Look around you ... you can see things in place to protect you, your pets. I have not 1 but 2 safety gates up over the storm door ... to be doubly sure our 2 dogs won't get outside to get hurt. We have the kennel to protect our rescue dog from getting hurt ... his safe space. I was watching tv and saw a Dorito bag with something on the front of the bag ... for one to touch to find out if they are too drunk to drive. Have you ever thought about such? No matter ... sometimes, we are going to get hurt. But, I'll take anything that will ... cushion my fall!

I had not heard that about Dorito bags, some how I feel sure that most drunks will ignore any warning from a bag of crisps!

You are right, we put a lot of safety measures in place to avoid being hurt but there is no guarantee we won't get hurt. However , we can still take measures to keep safe.

@GrannyGee I was very curious by your title but after I read what you wrote it made sense to me.
