Natural Selection at work

[A Day to Remember]

Let's see, someone (a kid) is acting like an idiot and half of the responses so far are, what, "Too bad he didn't die."?

Can someone please explain to me since when is being an idiot a matter of choice and not a character trait which one can't control?

Being an idiot has always been a matter of choice, so long as there is no mental issues at hand. People die from idiocy all the time.

Hah, that got a good laugh out of me. Guess nobody told him firecrackers may be called FIREcrackers for a reason.

Seems deprived to wish death on people. Especially if they're not mass murders or genocide creators.

I don't know about depraved.
Do you really want them to have a family and raise them with the same attitude ?
Some people are an obvious danger to others, and we can sometimes hope that their self-destructive nature hurts them before it hurts someone else completely innocent.

Really? That's what we're going with? I grill at the time, and my dog has enough sense to not go up and sniff fire and/or lick the hot grill. If she, a dog, has enough basic instinct/intelligence to not put fire in/near her mouth, I don't think it's a big stretch to assume that any human intelligent enough to use a computer, should know that putting explosives (no matter their strength) in their mouth, is probably a terrible idea.

That doesn't require intelligence, merely a basic survival instinct.

They're bloody teens... it's incredibly ignorant to assume that when they become adults they wouldn't mature at all.

Stupidity is largely a choice.

[Themius]

They might mature but they won't get any smarter. This kid is going to be the typical idiot making life harder for everyone around him his entire life.

I had no idea you were his guardian. Or are you the Doctor?

Now all we have to do is get Bieber to endorse something like this and we automatically lose millions of morons from the gene pool.

In this thread: lots of people who have never ever ever been idiots.

I've done some stupid stuff before, but where do we draw the line? Putting firecrackers in your mouth? that's not even something that needs thinking about, it's an instant "I don't think I should do that" scenario IMO.

Why? Its clearly not as dangerous as the forum seems to think. I know I've done far more stupid things in my life. Would the forum be happy if I got myself killed in the process?


Ok well maybe but you get the point.

So these are the future stars of that show "Jackass" I take it.

Don't want him to die. Losing to ability to reproduce is enough for a Darwin award, or at least a nomination.

I always preferred this one:

I had to watch the video (1st post) muted earlier today because I was in a college class, but saw the thread and decided to come take a look... well, listen.

"if it blows my lip off I won't be able to kiss no girl"

Well no shit, Sherlock, maybe you shouldn't do it in the first place? -.-

Sadly that ended better than expected would have been a good candidate for a Darwin award otherwise.

I fucking hate people.

They are also racist for hoping he dies because the kid is black. There is no other reason. If it were a white kid they'd be hoping he survived without injury
