Dude, a man died. That’s no time to make jokes.

I disagree with your hypothesis, let’s test it.

Test 1: Woman drowns her five young children one by one for no apparent reason.

Nope. That’s not funny. Perhaps there’s something to this.

Test 2: Two 21 year olds ****ing atop a sloped tin roof amid the morning dew fall four stories and die on the way to the hospital.

Certainly pokes some holes in your bumertion. I think more concrete proof is necessary before deeming it invalid, though.

Test 3: Man makes flight harness out of, it seems, a rubber garden hose and some double stick tape. Takes a ride under the belly of an airplane and, despite his valiant effort to hang onto the axle after his rig gives up on him, falls to his death.

Ok now you’ve got some explaining to do. Perhaps if you modified your theory with some sort of stupidity clause?

Test 4: Suicide bombers off target.

Random bumhole blows up self and six friends.

Woman uses her active and on personal cell phone as a trigger rather than a prepaid, unused, OFF phone for the trigger of her bomb belt. Gets a Happy New Year text from her service provider and goes out alone.

Now those are just ****ing hilarious. I think your theory has been sufficiently disproved. If modified to exclude deaths of a particularly stupid manner, and especially when it’s people we don’t like to begin with, then you may be able to say a man dying isn’t funny. But most people don’t like Russians, and he died in a really stupid way. It’s funny. Log in to see images!

Pièce de résistance:

Man giving tour of fishing boat to schoolchildren entertains them by sticking bait fish in his mouth. One keeps on going and kils the **** out of him.

”The cause of death was listed as aspiration of fish.”

Now that’s good stuff right there.

AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

All this got me in the mood to read some Darwin Awards. You’ll never guess what’s currently on the front page.

Well, you certainly got me there. I was just taking the rule of “death=not funny” as a given, when I should have been scientifically testing the theory for myself. You are officially a better scientist than I am.

Also, the woman blowing herself up with a spam text message is hilarious. I’ve been making jokes about that all week. I hadn’t heard of the people who died whilst ****ing on a roof or the guy who taped himself to the underside of a plane though.

I should have figured there’d be a Darwin award for the guy who blew himself up with chewing gum. That would have given my story some detail, which would have been nice. Ah well.
