The Hogans Are Pathetic Human Beings

Image details: MTV TRL Presents Hulk Hogan served by picapp.com
Even as a kid, I never much liked Hulk Hogan. Couldn’t quite put my finger on it. As a lifelong wrestling fan I appreciate everything he did for sports entertainment, but this fiasco with his son has made me lose all respect for the Huckster.
Nick Hogan […]

Suicide by Pesticide Gets Others Sick

If you want to take yourself out, hey, we don’t think it’s a good idea. Get some help. But if you’re determined to end things, try not to take a bunch of others with you. Someone should have told this to a Japanese farmer who killed himself by drinking pesticide. Yuck. While doctors tried to […]

Baby on Ebay

Police are investigating a 23-year-old woman and her 24-year-old partner for suspicion of child trafficking. They placed their eight-month-old baby in an […]

Colorado Men Have Taser Duel

The Associated Press gives us a just - bizarre incident of a restaurateur and a security guard squaring off with Tasers over a parking problem. Man, there are so many dumb decisions crammed into such a small amount of time here it’s unreal.

She Loves Him So Much She Stabbed Him

From the Winnipeg Sun comes a tale so crazy Stephen King might do something with it. A Winnipeg woman who accidentally stabbed her boyfriend in the heart during a drunken sex game received a three-year conditional discharge Wednesday.
The loving couple left the courtroom together. I’m not sure who’s dumber there, her for stabbing him […]

Charges well-grounded in attempt to steal power lines

We think we found another couple of men who should be nominated for the Darwin Awards. Two men from Somerset County, Pennsylvania were charged with trying to steal power lines. Unfortunately for those two, the lines were still attached to a transformer and utility poles.
The two, in their twenties, were shocked during the attempt. Only […]

A Gun Is Not a Backscratcher

Most of us probably already knew that, but a Ft. Worth man learned this lesson the hard way. The Dallas Morning News has immortalized the antics of 44-year-old Jorge Espinal, who was drinking and playing cards at 3 a.m. Sunday. (How’d I know alcohol was involved?)
 
Espinal told police he had an itch on his […]

He’s a Witch…Wizard! You Get The Drift

We see all kinds of dumb news around here but this piece is so exceptionally stupid, well, you be the judge.
News Station Tampa Bay 10 reports that Florida substitute teacher Jim Piculas was fired after being accused of wizardry. You heard me, wizardry. No, this news is not time-warped in from Salem in […]

Biker Crashes After Flipping Cops The Bird

Paramedics often refer to motorcyclists as organ donors. People that flip off the police are referred to as really stupid. People doing both? They’re Simply Dumb.
A Long Island man is recovering from injuries he sustained after giving a police cruiser the finger, popping a wheelie and crashing during the resulting chase. The Associated Press […]

Father Loses Son Over Hard Lemonade

I was probably in my late twenties before I’d heard of hard lemonade. And even then I didn’t know what the phrase meant - not the first time I heard it. Apparently, Christopher Ratte of Detroit didn’t either, and he lost his 7-year-old son for two days because of it.
Ratte took his son to a […]
