50. That one night a year...

Sat Jul 4, 2026, 03:26 PM

Saturday

causes those with PTSD who have specific triggers to have panic attacks and coronary events.

It causes animals to have "night fright" which causes them to take off in blind panics which lead to exhaustion and death. It causes them to flee into fixed objects such as buildings with a fatal outcome.

It causes dogs, cats, horses, livestock, etc. to flee into traffic, causing their deaths.

But since it's just one night, it's OK, Right?

Right?
