Stupid Hurts

The dangers of texting.

No, it is not about Bloombergtown proposed law to ban texting while being New Yorker or about the idiot who fell in a fountain while texting.

A “Black Widow” suicide bomber planned a terrorist attack in central Moscow on New Year’s Eve but was killed when an unexpected text message set off her bomb too early, according to Russian security sources.

She must have been a relative the suicide bombers that got confused by Israel’s switch from Daylight Savings to Standard time and got themselves in itsy bitsy tiny pieces for not adjusting the timers of their bombs.

Facepalm News: Getaway Vehicle Fail.

While committing a crime, it is wise to select a fast yet unobtrusive getaway vehicle. This thought appears to have never crossed the mind of a teen armed robber in Miami.

Miami police said a resident flagged officers down and said someone had been robbed by a teenage boy with a shotgun on a bicycle in the early-morning hours.

Officers stopped a teenager with a shotgun on a bike near 58th Street and Northwest 14th Avenue. After a confrontation, a Miami police officer and an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer both opened fire, shooting the teen, according to police.

The economy must be really bad when not even cars are available be stolen and you are forced to use “green” transportation to do your dirty deeds.

Dark Cloud Homeboy.

At work there is the young feller that walks with a dark cloud on top of him. In the few months I have know him, at least three of his “homeboys” have been killed by unsavory characters. Of course they’ve been hanging around with the wrong crowds which might be a reason why they end up in the Miami-Dade Slab Room. It bothered me that there was an element of pride in the fact that they were vitims, a stupid badge of honor if you ask me. They took the chances, they paid dearly for a lifestyle without sense, there is no pride, no honor in that mentality. They are just dead in the most stupid way.

I made the comment that I should stay away from him since people next to him were dropping like flies. He took a bit of exception to my comment:”My homeboys are dying and youse making jokes? What if they were your homeboys?” Before I could engage the safety, my mouth opened up: “My homeboys are not stupid and can shoot good. And a lot.”

Dark Cloud ain’t talking to me.  Oh well!
