"Interesting" Stupidity

Chinese Man Lies Down in Front of Subway Train ... Just for Kicks

This weekend, an unknown Chinese man brought immense danger on himself, as well as hundreds of commuters, when he lay down in front of an oncoming subway train.


The man wanted to be famous on the Internet, thinking that it would be an "interesting" thing to do. So, the 28-year-old took a digital video camera with him down to Shanghai's underground rail network and recorded himself climbing down from the platform and into the path of a train.

And he recorded the whole thing.




I could think of better ways to become "famous". Idiot.

Sometimes, You Just Can't Wait

Well, I guess a background check doesn't necessarily weed out the weirdos. Apparently, a female bus driver didn't see any problem with parking her school bus in a residential neighborhood, relieving herself in a plastic bag, and tossing it out on the lawn. Once? Nope! Twice? Nope! Many, many times. Luckily, people in the neighborhood got tired up picking up after her (yuck!) and managed to catch her on video. Needless to say, she is no longer an employee of this company.

Nasty, nasty, nasty. I would imagine this was not an easy task and would also imagine she wasn't, uh, how do I word this, 100% accurate in her aim. Not to mention the inability to wash her hands afterwards. Lovely.

Aren't you glad your children are not getting on this bus? Anyone want to vote for cameras on all school buses? Might not be a bad idea.

If you don't see a video below and are interested in seeing it along with the article, you can see at Fox6now.com. For some reason, the video keeps on disappearing after I save it.

Creative Marketing

Apparently a furniture store in Albuquerque, New Mexico, thought that the best way to attract customers to their store would be to have a pit full of alligators. They failed to realize that people might be offended or their children might be traumatized when they started to feed the alligators mice and bunny rabbits. To give them a little credit, customers were given a warning prior to tossing in the little bunnies.

While I understand the alligators need to eat, and I'm no marketing genius, I would think that this may not have been the best idea.

Since this was a family-friendly event with rides and exhibits for the kids, they might have made it a little more kid-friendly.

This would have been a little more fun to watch. Run, bunny, run!!

Note: This little bunny was Photoshopped (is this a word?) into this picture of the weird man. No bunnies were  in danger at any time in the making of this demonstration. Now that I think about it, I'm really curious about this weird man and the story behind this picture.

Hungry for Some Fish?

Have you ever seen Invasion of the Body Snatchers? There is a scene in the movie that shows a dog with a human head. That image was so freaky looking, it is something that I have never forgotten. I get goose bumps every time I think about it.

Well, this is another one of those images that will be hard to forget.

Sheepshead fish

I think I have forever lost my appetite for fish. For some reason, this just creeps me out! Fish are not suppose to have human like teeth. Although, I am impressed with how straight its teeth are.

However, this one reminds me of an ex-boyfriend. Poor guy.

You Can't Make This Stuff Up, Folks!

Some people should be exiled to Stupidity Island. I found a news article about a woman in the Florida Keys who crashed into another car as she was trying to shave her, uh, bikini area.

Yes, you read that correctly. Apparently, she was on the way to see her boyfriend and she "wanted to be ready for the visit." Luckily, her ex-husband was also in the car and was nice enough to hold the wheel while she performed this tricky task.

I have two questions for you, genius. 1. Uh, do you think this is maybe something you could have thought about a little earlier? 2. Do you always carry a razor in your purse for an occasion like this?

According to the article:

A day earlier, Barnes had been convicted of numerous driving infractions, including DUI with a prior arrest and driving with a suspended license. She had been ordered to impound her car, her license was revoked for five years, and she had been placed on probation for nine months.

My guess is she was probably still drunk when she came up with this brilliant idea. Remind me to stay off the roads in the Florida Keys.
