i've always hated amazon, but my elderly mobility-impaired neighbor depends on it daily for shopping needs so I kind of changed my tune. That being said, the majority of healthy adults use amazon way too much.

Or park in the middle of the road because they can't park one car length away from the house to deliver or drop something off.

This, all the time. I've pulled a Karen and complained about it to Amazon but a week later there is a new driver so they're back at it again.

They are adopting my moms 40/40 driving strategy she has done for years.

40 mph on the freeway and 40 in schools zones, parking lots and places with a bunch of people walking around.

Consistency is the key i think. It also scares the living hell out of you so I guess its like doing cardio because your heart is racing so fast.
