An interesting article analyzing differences in male vs. female Darwin Award recipients. Interesting, yes. Surprising? Um..... https://www.bmj.com/content/bmj/349/bmj.g7094.full.pdf
No, not really surprising, Sandi. I particularly liked the one about the terrorist opening his own letter-bomb. Disappointing, though, that there are no female examples. They may be fewer, but are they any different in their level of idiocy?
In my opinion this chap must be high in the rankings, I know he's not alone. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-57958358
What’s wrong with that is his selfish attitude tied up a hospital bed and put medical staff at unnecessary risk. My neighbour has COPD yet smokes every day and has an ambulance come when she panics cos she’s out of breath. That ambulance could be helping someone who better deserves it. Sorry, that was a little rant.
The guy who died after saying that he had more faith in the Bible than in Dr Fauci was obviously not familiar with the following story: A man was stuck on his rooftop in a flood. He was praying to God for help. Soon a man in a rowing boat came by and shouted to the man on the roof, "Jump in, I can save you." The stranded fellow shouted back, "No, it's OK, I'm praying to God and he is going to save me." So the rowing boat went on. Then a motorboat came by. The man in the motorboat shouted, "Jump in, I can save you." To this the stranded man said, "No thanks, I'm praying to God and he is going to save me. I have faith." So the motorboat went on. Then a helicopter came by and the pilot shouted down, "Grab this rope and I will lift you to safety." To this the stranded man again replied, "No thanks, I'm praying to God and he is going to save me. I have faith." So the helicopter reluctantly flew away. Soon the water rose above the rooftop and the man drowned. He went to Heaven. He finally got his chance to discuss this whole situation with God, at which point he exclaimed, "I had faith in you but you didn't save me, you let me drown. I don't understand why!" To this God replied, "I sent you a rowing boat and a motorboat and a helicopter, what more did you expect?"
