Total puzzle

As a non-driver and non-iPhoner, I’m WAY out of the modern loop. I can’t grasp the habits and assumptions of those castes.

Spokane News facebook page always posts car accidents along with fires and crimes and overdoses. Many of the readers seem to be professional drivers, Uber or similar, who are constantly in touch with other drivers. Every accident item immediately gets a comment asking for the description or picture of the cars.

Why? I don’t get it.

All of your friends and relatives and coworkers are ALSO on their phones 100% of the time. If one of them is involved, you’ll hear about it directly or indirectly. Why do you need to know RIGHT NOW?

There are two habitual repeaters, one female and one male, who ask this question on NEARLY EVERY accident. Both seem illiterate. The female often pastes “Picuter of car”. The male is less pasty but equally incomprehensible. Why do they want to know ALL accidents? Obsession? Hobby? Accident collecting? In any case, nobody ever satisfies their meaningless requests, so I’d think they would give up sooner or later.
