Dumbelievable

You know at some point this guy said, “Hey, let’s get a closer look.  He’s as big as my wife and she can’t move very fast.”

Then he yelled, “Shit, the bear must be PMSing!”

The next picture has to be the dumb ass slipping on the snow.  No one wants to see the third picture.   His family is now hoping for global warming to be real.

Another great picture from break.com which has new galleries every Thursday or so.

According to USAToday the government is being stupidier than normal.  After dealing with politics, politicians, funding and protests, they are actually STOPPING illegal immigrants from returning to Mexico.

WTF?!

They would rather PAY to send them back.  So friggin’ stupid.  This doesn’t help them track the immigrants.  There are many stories of immigrants going back and forth at will.  Another waste of intelligence and money.

And yes they are illegal immigrants.  Illegally hunting makes you a poacher, not an “out of season hunter.”  That is stupid wordplay.

Are you F#@&ing kidding me?!?  She started her marrying habit when she was 16 when most people start their smoking or drinking habit!  Look this is ridiculous. 

Marraige is for the people who believe in love or the mystic of marriage.  After the fourth you would have to take those two reasons off the table.  She is getting married for the sake of a party, trapped company, and possibly alimony – which code for money.  

Unsurprisingly this current wedding is just for that.  Both the bride and groom married as a publicity stunt as they are the respective sides for the most married bride and groom.  She shows was crock marriage is and that it is just a contract, nothing more.

This is not the typical Dumbelievable story where someone does the unthinkable. This one is just the weird set of circumstances that fits the “Stranger Than Fiction” set.

A skier, 48, hung upside down from a chair lift. Luckily the skis caught him from falling though they did not keep his pants up. 5 Dumbelievable photos here.

I still can’t imagine how the pants came down but because they did, he will get about 10 times the money he would have for just slipping through. 

He should sell his story to Southwest Airlines for their “Wanna Get Away?” promotion.

Alex Roy has been training to cross the country in less than 32 hours.  He made it.  Whoopee.  I write about people doing dumb stuff and crashing.  In this case there is no crashing but the possibility is still very likely. He admits that he is driving through typical areas weaving in and out of traffic.

What could go wrong? A blown tire perhaps?  If he has to average over 90 mph to get make it, he needs to be at speeds in excess of 130 mph to make up for gas stops. 

It sounds fun and romantic in a movie way.  But it is stupid.  At least when someone tries to climb Everest, “because it is there”, typically they are only endangering themselves.  I only came to know of Alex Roy because Tim Ferriss mentioned him on Twitter.  I admire Tim which is why I follow him on Twitter but I am surprised that he would go on a trip like this.  

I wonder if he is actually doing it because of the possible repercussions if something goes horribly wrong. Which it could and most likely will no matter how good the car handles.  Jackass the TV show was funny because they did the stupidest things that I would never do to myself.  Johnny Knoxville shot himself in the chest while wearing a bullet-proof vest.  Stupid, but only he had to pay any consequences.

I think highly of you Tim.  I know you experiment with different ideas and tech to see what the human body and brain can do.  It sounds like fun to me too, but if something goes wrong all you can say is, “I’m sorry”, and that most likely won’t be enough.

James Colliton seems to like his name and picture in the media. After being accused of paying a woman so he could have sex with her 13 and 15 year-old daughters. He was in Canada on a trip, he says he wasn’t hiding, when American Express gave up his whereabouts.

I guess he imagines he is done with any job that will pay him anything close to what his lawyer job paid. And with everyone Googling everyone, I think he will have a hard time restarting his career after he plead guilty to rape and hiring a prostitute.

He is suing American Express for $4 million for breaking it’s own rules and “selling him out to the cops” though he wasn’t hiding. He says this caused him to be falsely imprisoned.

He is also suing his former employer for $950,000 for unpaid wages and vacation.

Classic line: “When people stop violating my rights, that’s when I will stop filing lawsuit”

I wonder how much he will pay to the little girls for violating their rights. Actually he has already served 19 months in prison. I thought those guys got abused so bad from other inmates that they wouldn’t have much to say.
