Men in their 30s engaging in wedgies… and fighting to the death over it.  Total fucking morons.

Herd thinning kicks ass!

The sad thing is not that we still behave like primates, but that we come up with the silliest reasons to do so.  Testosterone run amok ...

Just so you know....the guy plead self defense in the case and today a jury found him Guilty of First degree murder and sentenced him to 20 years in jail without parole

Just a Quick note:

Personal Underwear Distress (PUD) is no laughing matter.

This terrible problem exists in a plethora of variations these days. I see many examples of PUDs on the street each day. These run the gammut from hip-hop too-tall underware (it just seems like they would either buy shorter boxers or taller pants), to the ever popular camel-toe. What possesses these people to pull their PUDs in public, I can only surmise.

Your example above points out why the author of the Dennis Hopper Book of Bar Etiquette took the time to try and discourage this type of behaviour. As I recall the rule is that when you are at the bar it is o.k. to pull your own PUD, but not that of your neighbor.

I hope this helps clear up, just why things got so out of hand in Virginia.

Funny thing is this was my brother that was killed. After looking at this website I realized this is just the kind of website my brother probably would have gone to and made jokes about other people on too. Can’t you all show some respect to my family? You think we are happy that events like this actually occur. It is like living a bad nightmare..

While I can sympathize with your loss, that doesn’t change the facts that it happened and it happened for some pretty stupid reasons. If nothing else, your brother stands as a lesson for others on how imitating the show Jackass can get you killed.

If pointing out that this whole situation was stupid and could’ve been prevented had your brother not felt the need to try and prove what a tough guy he was is being disrespectful to your family then I am guilty as charged and I make no apologies for that. If your brother is any example of the level of thinking and respect your family gives to others then I don’t know that I have a lot of reason to respect your family.

You make the assumption that just because my brother did something stupid that my family is not worthy of your respect? I know in your world that bad kids only come from bad families. Guess what, that is not always true. I have one piece of advice for you, if you have kids do not say “my kid will never do that”, because it will usually come true. My parents raised three kids, two of us are sucessful with families, and we will never know for sure what would have become of the third if he lived longer. You should not be so quick to judge people and make assumptions. I make no assumptions about Mr. Williams and his family. I actually feel worse for his family than mine. They have to live with the fact that he murdered someone, my family at least only has to learn to get over the loss of my brother.

You make the assumption that just because my brother did something stupid that my family is not worthy of your respect?

Not what I said at all, but you appear to share your brother’s idea that respect is something you should be given freely rather than something you should earn from others and I don’t work that way. I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt, but my respect is reserved until I see good reason to give it.

I know in your world that bad kids only come from bad families. Guess what, that is not always true.

And how do you know this is how I feel? Your hypocrisy is showing here. First you chide me for making assumptions, which I didn’t, and then you make an assumption that is incorrect. Try not to commit the sins you accuse others of, eh?

I have one piece of advice for you, if you have kids do not say “my kid will never do that�?, because it will usually come true.

You’ll pardon me if I suspect the validity of any advice from you given your record so far. Not that it matters as I’d never think that my kid would never do that. I assume my daughter is capable of anything because I see it too often in too many other people around me. Which is why I try to teach her that acting like a jackass with a chip on her shoulder and not thinking before acting isn’t the best way to go through life. I’m hopeful she’ll pick up on the lessons and avoid making those mistakes, but I’m not naive enough to think that it’s impossible for her to make a wrong turn somewhere along the line.

My parents raised three kids, two of us are sucessful with families, and we will never know for sure what would have become of the third if he lived longer.

Two out of three ain’t bad. Not that I’m blaming them for your brother. He was old enough to know better and should have.

You should not be so quick to judge people and make assumptions.

Says the woman who is doing just that here and now. Pot, meet Kettle.

I make no assumptions about Mr. Williams and his family.

I don’t know much about Mr. Williams family, but it’s probably safe to assume Mr. Williams himself is an asshole. He pushed the issue and then took out a knife when your brother responded to his provocations. Most “nice” people I know don’t act in such a manner, but I’ve known enough assholes in my time that do act in such a manner to recognize the behavior when I see it.

I actually feel worse for his family than mine. They have to live with the fact that he murdered someone, my family at least only has to learn to get over the loss of my brother.

That’s a very compassionate view to take and I mean that seriously. If nothing else it’ll at least lower the friction between yourself and Mr. Williams family.
