... if you don't have anyone in your life to teach you "dryers have exhaust vents" or "portable generators produce deadly levels of carbon monoxide in minutes," you might never learn until it's too late. If you know this stuff, that's great. But, it's a nation of 300 million people...

... Everyone can't know everything. It's why we do what we do over here. It's why we encourage you to share these messages with people. There's no formal safety training for how to live life as an adult. There is literally just what we help each other learn (through safety memes).

And before you are tempted to judge anyway, when's the last time you checked if your carbon monoxide alarms are working? Do you even have one? These are very obvious safety devices everyone should own and maintain. Go push that test button.

I secretly go into other people's houses and check their CO alarms while they're sleeping. Is that weird?

In a comic book, this would be a delightfully quirky character trait. In the real world, it violates one of our most important tips which is don't do crime(s).
