A Bridge Too Far
Let's get this straight: six people are presumed dead after the Francis Scott Key Bridge decided to have a mid-life crisis and collapse into the Patapsco River. Can you believe it? That's like a whole bunch of "nope" all at once.
Imagine being a construction worker, just minding your own business, filling potholes (a glamorous job, we know), and suddenly you're doing the world's most unexpected cannonball. Not cool, Baltimore Bridge, not cool at all.
Tip: Focus on one point at a time.
A Fishy Situation
Now, you might be wondering why we say "presumed" dead. Well, the river decided to play hard-to-get and hasn't given up all the bodies yet. It's like the river is saying, "You want my secrets? Fine, but you're gonna have to work for them." Talk about dramatic.
Could Have Been Worse
Okay, let's take a moment to appreciate the fact that this could have been a whole lot worse. Imagine if this happened during rush hour? Or if a school bus full of adorable, sugar-crazed kids was crossing it? We'd be dealing with a whole different level of tragedy. So, let's count our blessings, people.
