100 years ago tomorrow. New York Times, November 23, 1924: “The automobile looms up as a far more destructive piece of mechanism than the machine gun. The reckless motorist deals more death than the artilleryman. … Immediate action [is necessary] to halt the homicidal orgy of the automobile.”

A disclaimer SO IMPORTANT they posted it twice with more emphasis. 𝘼 𝙙𝙞𝙨𝙘𝙡𝙖𝙞𝙢𝙚𝙧 𝙎𝙊 𝙄𝙈𝙋𝙊𝙍𝙏𝘼𝙉𝙏 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙮 𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙙 𝙞𝙩 𝙩𝙬𝙞𝙘𝙚 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙢𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝙚𝙢𝙥𝙝𝙖𝙨𝙞𝙨.

This screenshot shows a disclaimer on a website, which reads as follows:

***Disclosure: This post may contain affiliate links, which means we may receive a commission, at no extra cost to you, if you make a purchase through a link.***

It then repeats this same disclaimer in italics. This post notably follows the same format for comedic effect, hence all the special characters in the post.
