Where's the "Hold Muh Beer" alert?

[Shermy]

Ping.

[AppyPappy]

Not a re-creation. A mere coincidence.

[TomServo]

They need to change the name of the show to dumbass.

"Hold muh beer 'n watch this!" PING....

If you want on or off this list, please let me know!

I just can't feel sorry for someone dumb enough to set themself on fire. I don't blame the movie..... I think it's just that stupid is as stupid does.

On top of everything else, the kid's name is Kelvin.

I wonder how many degrees Kelvin alcohol burns at?

I think K = 273.15 + C, if that helps.

I belive the quote is: Stupid is as stupid does.

"It's not like he did a robbery or stole things, so I still have hope in him."

Let's not give Junior too much credit!

Not to sound like a liberal, but I do blame society for these incidents.

Most young boys are forced to live sheltered, soft lives incompatible with their hormonal warrior urges. 150 years ago boys this age would've been required to know how to use a firearm (as opposed to hiding the darn things from them) and would often have to stay outside working for long periods of time. Many would be required to hunt and chop large amounts of wood (today we tell them "Don't play with knives!")...

This is the price we pay for trying to raise boys in a sheltered manner. They will find ways to expend their aggressive energy. If people want to prevent this sort of thing, they need to push their kids towards programs like the Marine Corps Cadets or maybe even Civil Air Patrol (Boy Scouts and JROTC have been watered down too much).

Jackass the movie is just another government plot to purify the gene pool.

[Romulus]

he still thinks his son has a bright future

Bright past, too.

Yesterday, Wu was partly blaming himself and wondering whether he should have raised his son in what he called the traditional Chinese way.

Being American and being stupid are not synonimous, Mr Wu. Common sense is a universal quality.

The real problem is you imparted no common sense to your son.

Natural selection will not be denied.

Kelvin, 15, soaked his shirt in alcohol, and -- as his friends videotaped the prank -- the Bellevue teenager set himself on fire.

Kelvin, meet Darwin. Darwin, this is Kelvin.
