Yeah it's so much nicer! There's some where they're trying to be really by the rules and they manage to make it work but most of the time the dice rolls are just there to keep things grounded (you can't just god mode yourself, you have to have some chance of failure etc). It's not really usually that useful if what you're playing table top RPGs for is to fell a collective story, so editing it out is probably a huge pain but it makes things flow so much smoother.

i don't know about a will as in, the document that says who gets what when you die, but I think it's always good to have a living will, which is the document that says what you want health care-wise if you become incapacitated and incapable of answering questions. You never know when that could come in handy -- hopefully never, but if it does, you'd be glad you had it.

The crash I got I to later that was car on car, part of it was I figured I could afford to get it fixed on my own and partly because I suspected the other driver may not have had all the paperwork they were technically supposed to and I though getting insurance involved might also get police scrutiny they didn't need. So I decided to just cover it myself even tho it was 100% their fault. I don't want to ruin someone's life over it.

I don't know what I would do if the crash was much more serious. It wasn't cheap fixing my car even with the minor damage that was done. If I'd needed insurance idk.

So I had this question myself after I got hit by a car while I was on my bike. The day of, I didn't file anything I just got their insurance. Then over the course of the day everyone I spoke to including people whose opinions on the police system I trust, said yeah just file a report. So against my better judgment I did.

The cop told me that insurance doesn't actually need the report, they just want the police report because that usually determines fault. If the cops don't do it then insurance has to pay to get that figured out. So he claimed.

He also spent the whole time acting bored and like I was wasting his time, but as soon as I gave the other driver's name, he perked up and asked "oh -- did she speak English?"

So I don't know how much of what he said is true. I think in most states the police are supposed to be called for a crash that results in some amount of damage. Under that amount and they don't. I would look it up for your state myself, but for me, since that experience I have gotten in to a minor car crash and decided not to involve the police in any way and was happier for it.

I was going to say probably 🤪 is a good contender. But there's a lot of great suggestions in this thread.

Also 💦, 🍑 and 🍆 but mostly because when I see them I am disgusted by the context.
