"You know, Steph, if you really want to be safe in this big dangerous world you should start wearing a helmet at all times because head injuries are a serious matter, and you never know when you might slip and fall down.

Additionally, you might want to consider carrying a first aid kit around with you wherever you go because you never know when an accident might happen.

Doing the above should be priority number one, and down the list of things to do to make yourself safer, say at about number 384, you might consider banning the keeping of venomous snakes."

First statement sounds stupid and ignoramus. Second, who in the HELL DOESN'T have a first aid kit within reach in the house/car/etc.? Do you not have kids? The third drives your point home. I will admit that it was clever.
