Three Die Playing Catch With Hand Grenade

Can't blame them. They had at least a 10% chance of surviving the game. Those are my kinda odds!

The idiots also managed to kill a bystander.

I smell a Darwin Award.

These people were 19 and 20 years old and are adults not youths. The articles states that it is not clear why the grenade exploded....my guess is that one of the adults pulled the pin. There has to be alcohol involved with this story I mean how many people would toss a grenade around sober??

Posted by: i4cu2 on November 7, 2005 03:58 PM

Yep. Darwin - 1. Intelligent Design - 0.

This is almost as bad as the guy who put a firecracker in his mouth and ended up looking like Admiral Akbar.

As a 'Nam Vet once told me,

" Once the pin is pulled, Mr. Hand Grenade is not your friend."

Guess no one told it to them.

Sounds like they had a blast.

Posted by: The Warden on November 7, 2005 07:10 PM

Or they didn't understand the rules of "Hot Potato".

The articles states that it is not clear why the grenade exploded

Um, 'cause it's a fucking grenade!?

Good, three more stupid people prevented from taking up our precious oxygen...

Holiday Break: I've had a rough couple of weeks -- the shoulder is healing now and I'm finally getting decent sleep -- and I've decided to take a long weekend.
I'm taking Friday off, and then Monday off, too.
I have Open Threads for both days and I will post if big news breaks, but if it doesn't -- and it probably won't, news is slow before a holiday weekend -- I'm going to take a four day weekend.
Sh0eOnHead discusses the Psychotic Cult of Lindsay
Real quotes:
"This case has me feeling like I'm on Law & Order with you guys!"
"We literally binge true crime as a hobby, we've been trained for this moment"
Worth the watch. If you haven't seen the genuinely upsetting insanity motivating thousands of women, you should watch this just to see how society is crumbling.
Ban TikTok, Trump. I don't care if Barron tells you it's popular with the yutes. It is an evil Communist China op and it is driving women insane.
Dolly Parton tells the story of the supposedly real-life Jolene
As Andrew Branca says, can we see this Jolene, finally? Who was this hottie that was a genuine sexual threat to Dolly Parton?
I think this is Fake News personally. When a magician claims he learned a trick from a Himalayan wise man, I don't believe him either.
TJM definitively ranks the films of Mel Brooks
Peter Cullen, voice actor for Optimus Prime (among many others) dies at home surrounded by family at age 85

Breaking news: Dolly Parton had a real pair of 38s
Or at least one. She carried it everywhere for protection.
This joke brought to you by Benny Hill. And speaking of the British: The Buckingham Palace guard tributed her yesterday
Dolly Parton is badgered into saying something negative about Trump's bus-board locker-room talk, but refuses to bow to the media pressure, telling the twink agitator she learned long ago to "keep your damned mouth shut"
What I'm appreciating is that while her surface is soft and sweet, she's got some actual steel a centimeter underneath.
1977 interview shows that Barbara Walters has always been a seaward and Dolly Parton always had "country class"
Walters actually asks Dolly Parton if she knows that people think she's a joke. This because Walters can't get over the fact that a show-woman has 1, big breasts, and 2, dresses a bit outrageously because, get this, she's an entertainer. A stage performer. You know, someone people pay money to see live and expect them to put on a show.
She never would attack Liberace for wearing glitter-tuxedos. But she's mad that Dolly Parton makes Barbara Walters look bad through association (by being a woman). Babs, you wish people associated the two of you. Believe me, we can tell the difference.
