Another kid fries himself imitating “Jackass” stunt.

You’d think after the first few idiots burn themselves the rest of the idiots would smarten up a bit, but as this article proves it is unwise to over-estimate the ability of idiots to learn from other’s mistakes.

Fifteen-year-old Kelvin Wu initially told police he was set on fire Friday night while walking from the Issaquah-Skyline football game. Police were told that two men walking past the Issaquah teen flicked cigarette ashes onto his shirt and it caught fire, and that Wu’s friends tried to smother the flames but had to tear off the boy’s shirt.

Police Cmdr. Stan Conrad said officers later determined that along with four friends, Wu soaked his T-shirt in alcohol and lit it as his friends videotaped the stunt. But Wu suffered severe burns to his torso, arms, face, head and ears, police said.

The words “dumb ass” just don’t begin to describe. Unlike the hordes of parents and knee-jerk activists groups that are already penning angry letters to their editors about how horrible the Jackass movie and show are and how the creators of said product should be strung up by their testicles for putting out such crap, I firmly plant the blame for this on the now well-singed idiot kids who continue to set themselves on fire. As someone else said, this is just natural selection in action.

You mean other than the obvious fact that the best part of them ran down their mother’s leg?

Well, it starts with a flaw in simple logic. Money does not equal success. Case in point, the “Jackass” stunt where two members of their group decide to tie bottle rockets to their genitals and light them. Yes, they profited from this, but if a high-school dropout manages to make an obscene amount of money by creating a novel way to torch his genitals, then he is simply an obscenely wealth dropout with a singed pubic muff. That’s it. In the end it doesn’t mean that he is a success because he wasn’t bright enough to figure capital gains or realize that buying a fast car and plenty of hookers isn’t exactly a financially sound investment. So now we are almost back to where we started. A high-school dropout with a recovering pubic muff and or merkin without an obscene amount of money. Simply put, money does not equal success, and should you feel the need to wedge an explosive device in your rectum or douse yourself in alcohol for the “thrill” of it, be my guest, just so long as you do so away from my home, but just maybe close enough so that I can watch from a safe distance as you run screaming through the night. grin

I’ve discovered that it all boils down to brain wiring: your brain is wired to worship magic or it isn’t, either it’s wired to utilize logic or it isn’t, either it’s analytical of myths or it isn’t.

They’re a couple of idiots who think they’re being “cool.”

The thing that cracks me up about all this defending of the Jackass TV show/movies is that I’m not complaining about the TV show/movie. The guys of Jackass are at least getting paid to do really stupid and painful things for the entertainment of others and they actually take some steps to ensure help is nearby if they should do serious damage to themselves. The kids that are imitating them don’t and aren’t getting paid for their stupidity. That just makes the kids into idiots.

To Neodromos:

Success can only be defined by stating the object to be obtained. When that object is obtained, then we use the pass tense of the word, that being “successes”.

If an idiot is out to smash his brain on a concrete wall going 60 mpg, and that is the object, and that was accomplished, I say give credit where credit is due. You cannot argue with success.

The standard I expressed, applies to adults, Not to impressionable kids whose brains are nothing more than, monkey see monkey do.

Money most certainly equals success if that is the object stated and obtained. I rather have kids go after money as an example to live by, than brain smashing.

Don,

Successes is not the past tense of success, it’s the plural, as in more than one success.

Don:

You are right, KBG, in the English language there is not a word as “sucsessed” the selling and meaning is flailed. 

“Succeeded” is the more correct word as past tense.  I agree, I was trying to keep continuity of my thought without getting overly complex.

My point being, in order for any such thing to happen, as “success” the object must be stated first, or claim any damn thing as to success, as such, the word looses definition. 

Humans are not limited to what an object is to be obtained, but obtaining the object has to be stated before hand of the actions in order to claim success.

Money wealth, is a valid object, if it is obtained, all else is just learning or pipe dreams. Better to work at money wealth than brain smashing, Can you agree?

KPG, you’re getting kinder/gentler as each of Don’s posts wafts thru the ether . . . I’m shocked! wink

Look at all the great material up there! “Pass tense” . . . smashing brains out on a wall at “60 mpg” . . . it’s a bit like reading a missive by Norm Crosby.

Except, ya know - Don isn’t funny.

“Let’s all circumcise our watches!” GAWD, ol’ Norm used to kill ‘em!  LOL

Well, you know, I’m tired, it’s been a long day. There other stuff could all be written off as typos but that was an attempted definition of a word that was outright wrong, and since Don holds such big stock in definitions I figured it needed to be corrected.
