Surely iPhones, iPads and the like are waterproof ? "Certain elenents of Society" wouldn't be able to live if they had to put them down for a few minutes to take a shower ?

Now do you see where you got it wrong? They aren't in society.

The culling of our specie through Natural Selection is an entirely good thing - as it decreases the global pool of bad genes. As an added bonus it pisses off the leftist huggy fluffs something fierce who are doing their damnest to ensure the continued infection of aforementioned pool.

Her old man died while doing something noble which gave his death dignity. This kid died for absolutely nothing.

Re: Darwin Awards
Crocodiles are thought to have eaten a South African hunter after human remains were found inside two animals.
Scott van Zyl disappeared last week after he went on a hunting safari in Zimbabwe.
Accompanied by a pack of dogs and a Zimbabwean tracker, the professional hunter who organises trips for foreign clients is thought to have been eaten by crocodiles on the bank of the Limpopo River.

It is believed Mr van Zyl and his tracker left their truck and walked in different directions into the bush. The dogs later returned to the camp without Mr van Zyl, whose belongings were found inside the vehicle.
Rescue teams were sent to search for the hunter and helicopters, trackers and divers all scoured the region.
His tracks were later spotted leading to the banks of the river and his backpack was located nearby.
Sakkie Louwrens, a member of one of the search teams, said police suspected two Nile crocodiles may have eaten Mr Van Zyl.

“We found what could possibly be human remains in them,” he told The Telegraph. Forensic experts are currently testing whether the remains belong to Mr van Zyl.
The SS Pro Safaris website, owned by Mr van Zyl, states the company "has conducted numerous safaris" throughout Southern Africa. These include "elephants in Botswana to the smallest blue duiker in KwaZulu Natal".
It goes on to list buffalo, rhino, lions, leopards and antelopes as targets for hunts.
There have been previous incidents in southern Zimbabwe of people being killed by crocodiles.
Last year, a 13-year-old boy was killed as he fished to pay for his school fees.
When all else fails, read the instructions.

Re: Darwin Awards
Some fecking American football player ( I don't watch sports) serving a life sentence for murder was recently acquitted of 2 additional murders. But still serving a life sentence for 2 previous murder convictions. He had the world by the balls, making millions, and he murdered 2 people because someone spilled a drink on him, so he hung himself. You ruined your life because someone spilled a drink on you??? And murdered 2 people??
Hope you rot in hell, coward

Quite, Slasher me old... Which it is why it is rumoured that a certain Australian State Police Force made very little effort to investigate a number of murders of known Criminals when it was known that there was a bit of 'Inter-gang Warfare' going on.

Looters in Venezuela were electrocuted while stealing a fridge during an episode of looting. They picked it up and tried to take it out of the store without unplugging it first.

I do - and for everyone else going to bed hungry tonight. The sad fact is that the world produces enough food - sometimes basic I admit - but food to feed everyone on this planet. So why do people starve ? Stupidity, ignorance, prejudice and above all at the top of the list, corrupt leaders.

Not just hunger but a heap of other troubles too.
When will it get through collective thick heads world over that:
1. There is a huge difference between being a leader and being a politician.
2. Politics is about power and nothing else.
3. No government truly represents its electors and never has, try though as it might.
4. War has always ALWAYS been caused by a mere handful of arseholes with power. Period.
5. History is replete with the record of human weakness, and hard lessons can be learned from it.
6. There is no such thing as inferior races - only inferior cultures which fail to adapt to better thinking and knowledge.

Along the same lines, the Nigerians who scoop up petrol from burst pipelines and crashed tankers, and end up making their own funeral pyre.
