Idiot of The Day

[Gravdigr]

Hah!

In fact, double hah!

[DanaC]

Fuck yeah. I look back and just shudder at the risks I took as a youngster.

Poor bugger. What a waste of a life.

[xoxoxoBruce]

I hope he hadn't reproduced.

[glatt]

Well if he had, that would make him ineligible for the Darwin award.

[Gravdigr]

As kids, we do stuff that, had we known how dangerous it was to do, would have killed us outright.



ETA: I wonder what the actual injury was? Concussion? Those mortars really whump when they go off...Maybe a fractured skull?

[Gravdigr]

Ten cuidado con el toro con cuernos de fuego!



Yay bull!!

[Gravdigr]

I'll take 15 days in jail over marriage to, literally, any woman I've ever met.

I thought it was a little weird that his only real argument for caving in was, "the judge wouldn't let me call my job to tell them about the 15 days, so I would have been fired if I took it." Your girlfriend (now wife) doesn't know how to use a phone on your behalf?

[DanaC]

Nice.

Our Idiot Of The Day prize is shared today by two (2) idiots who decided it would be a good idea to break into someone's home. Someone's home where there was someone home.

The thirteen (13) year old boy got his mom's handgun and let fly at one of the burglars, who let fly right back with his own gun. Shots were exchanged between the boy and the burglar, who was hit three (3) times, before being helped into a car by his accomplice, and driven to a hospital, where he died. The boy also followed the men into the street and filled the get-away car with bullet holes.

That's right fellas...

...you were undone by a thirteen (13) year old boy.

...you were undone by a thirteen (13) year old boy.

And a Colt .45.

[Gravdigr]

Is that what he was drinking?

[xoxoxoBruce]

OK, maybe more than one.

Say Ira, I heard there's 13 year old in that house with a Colt.45.
Appalling, Lamar, it's illegal and immoral for a youth to consume alcohol.
Ira, I feel it's my civic duty to intercede on behalf of the community.
Yes, Lamar, it would be shameful to turn our backs on a fellow human being gone astray.
Then it's agreed, Ira, we shall have an intervention, but we must proceed with stealth, so as not to frighten the child.
Splendid thought, Lamar, lead on.

[Gravdigr]

Man, they are strict in PA.

Apparently 'No' means "No."...



...as well as "Stop, or I will smack you in the eye with a skillet!"

ƒucking idjit.

SEATTLE (Reuters) - A 73-year-old man who had been pulled over for driving without his headlights was arrested by a Seattle police officer after he tried to snort cocaine in front of the stunned patrolman, authorities said on Friday.

After the officer checked the man's license and registration during the traffic stop on Tuesday evening, the patrolman walked back to the man's Toyota. When he peered into the car he saw the man "portioning out a scoop of cocaine from a small glass vial," the department said in a statement.

"What is that? Are you kidding?" Officer Nic Abts-Olsen can be heard saying to the man in an exchange captured by the patrol car's dashboard camera. "You're about to snort coke on the side of the road?"

The man was startled to see Abts-Olsen and spilled the white powder on his hands and on the car floor, telling the officer it was "vitamins."

"Finally, the man relented, complimented Officer Abts-Olsen on his keen detection skills and admitted that snorting cocaine in the middle of a traffic stop was, perhaps, a poor decision," the department's statement said.

The man was arrested and booked into the King County Jail for narcotics possession.

Abts-Olsen told the man, who had an unblemished driving record, that he was going to let him off with a warning for driving without his headlights, but for the cocaine.
