[PROCON]

Recipients of this award include a terrorist who posted a letter bomb with insufficient postage, and who unthinkingly opened his own letter when it was returned (apparently because he was conscientious enough to include a return address).

I've never done anything dumb in my life; at least not Darwin worthy..

Women are just as stupid as men, but are simply more subtle about it.

Yeah, sure, okay. Of course, no one dares mention the female equivalent of the Darwin award: going off with strange and/or dangerous men who do them in. Oops...there, I said it.

The rules did not allow the award to go to a man who, in the course of using a belt sander as an autoerotic device, merely lost a testicle.

Wow...That's better than using a reciprocating saw..

I don’t think men are dumb at all. I do think that men and women are “wired” differently. Men (IMHO) take more risks and possibly try new things that they haven’t learned. For example, a man may try to cut a tree down without any sort of training vs a woman who would possibly hire someone. That doesn’t make a man dumb.. it makes him more “adventurous”. I despise reports/studies like this.. it is simply a way to annoy people. I have one son and two daughters... ALL of them have done some of the most dumb a$$ stunts imagined but they are all adventurous. A little too adventurous for my taste but that is a different story.

Everyone should just be female, of course nothing would get created, mastered and built, but we could live in thatch huts and eat berries and use twigs for firewood, and of course the bears and wolves wouldn’t bother us.

Evidence to the contrary: darwin award failure

Who is more stupid...The guy who does stupid schnit, or the gal who marries him and has his kids?

Honestly, I’m so sick of the universal acceptance that it’s ok to attack men, especially white men. Eff that!
