Some people might learn a lesson after losing a Mercedes to a joy-rider who drove it off a cliff: [not Charlie Sheen, though.](http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100615/ap_en_ot/us_people_charlie_sheen)

What a maroon.

ETA: Will the people who were defending him in [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=550965) step up and do so again?

To lose one Mercedes may be seen as a misfortune; to lose two looks like carlessness.

For most people, driving over a cliff and living to tell the tale would be a miracle. For Charlie Sheen, it’s a dare.

He’s still making Two and a Half Men. That’s enough.

In the last thread you mocked him for leaving his car in the driveway with the keys in it, and it turned out it was stolen from a locked garage. Some people might have learned to wait until the facts are in.

Which is not to say that Charlie Sheen’s not a moron.

Maybe one of the many enemies he has made keeps stealing his cars and rolling them off cliffs. Or Jon Cryer is a really bad driver.

Same thing happened once to my first husband. Except that it was a 1963 Pontiac. And except that my husband was driving drunk and wrecked the car. And except that he walked home and called and reported the car stolen. Hmmmmm.

So he gets a car stolen every five months. At this rate, he’ll be out of cars in… sixty months?..TRM

When Sheen heard there was a pussy who could drive your car, any reason was cast off like a backpack in a retreat.
