After viewing some of the recent videos others have posted in various threads ( eg. "Crawley Kids on Roundabout" etc.) I have recently discovered an unfound enjoyment witnessing "other peoples fuck-ups". Cruel as it may be, we as human beings just cant help but find some amusement in other peoples misfortune.
This a thread for all those such things: Vids, pics, stories. Anything shocking, disturbing, gruesome, stupid, painful, downright amazing or just Bizarre.
This is NOT a thread meant to incite our opinions/distaste or to discuss our reactions, or objections to said content, but rather one just to expose, shock, amaze, entertain, ridicule or generally just marvel at our wonderful species that is man.

You come across as a sad, ageing, lonely, joyless dweeb. I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt, that perhaps you're not really like that. If that's the case, don't you ever get sick of keeping up that pathetic appearance? Originally Posted by Multivital

I better post something insulting, but it needs to be dry and a little bit funny. i know I'll make a mum joke that insinutes his birth was a 'misfortune'. thats gold! hahahaha I'm so smart"

i had a discussion about this last night with one of my inspectors... i told him a story from saturday night when I was attending a party in northbridge and some drunk retard got on a table to look snazzy and the table proceeded to collapse under him and he produced the most horrifying stack i've seen in person... to which i then HEARTILY laughed in his face. we came to agreeance that it's so particuarly funny because of these two reasons.
30% - because you can empathise and understand how embarassing it is (yet you compound this feeling by laughing at them)
70% - because it's not you looking like an idiot
HES GOT THE EYE OF THE JEW!!!

i once managed to jump a dune on my banshee and instead of landing back tires first i landed all four at the same time to which i pretty much fell off the bike with.
soft sand= chuckles
anything firmer= pain, not funny.
I guess this brings up the whole thing about why jackass is considered funny. i watched viva la bam spring break edition on friday and it was shit, hes just a spoilt little shit with A.D.D and no regard for other people. BUT HEY... brings out the chuckles...Last edited by badr; 31-07-2006 at 06:28 PM.

I'll always laugh at other people fucking up etc, just as I would expect them to laugh at my fuckups and pain
. It doesnt mean that I dont care about them etc, it just means that I can find good in bad.
