It's not a good sign if I've convinced someone to do something. That almost universally comes with provisos like "recovery time is mostly pretty quick...mostly" or "try using mental checklists to keep track of whether the person you're talking to genuinely exists, and keep your speeds below 35, unless you're in the left lane, in which case really hammer it."
