    OK but that would be an amazing law, imagine the sights we’d see!

      I know the first Mad Max is considered a prequel because there’s some semblance of society left…

      But goddamn, I would love it for this to be the origin of their society. Like one year it reaches critical mass and a major parade is still going when the next is scheduled to start.

      And the only way to replace one is to destroy the ongoing one thru combat

      We go thru generations of the Parade Wars, with shit becoming so all consuming that it’s the only thing that survived. The instinctual compulsion to ridiculous performative vehicles that actually move incredibly slowly when you think about it.

        I could see how the whole “witness me!” thing originated more civilly, with the requirement being two unrelated witnesses and a notary on float application paperwork.
