Late Entry for 2004 Darwin Award

Given that a double decker bus looks like one of these,

…and weighs around 8 to 10 tons, and the driver is pretty pissed off with you for busting his windscreen, it doesn’t seem like a good idea to remain inplace to admire your handiwork, directly in front of the moving vehicle.

I suppose its tragic really,

.not its not, its stupid

The… driver on the bus will squish your ass
squish your ass
squish your ass…

I’m suprised that no one has tried to use the fact that people like this exist to disprove evolution.

He got squished, though. He’d already hit reproductive maturity and had enough time to father some kids, but getting killed sure cuts down on your potential to reproduce. I’m thinking that, if anything, this little anecdote is an instance in which the environment selected for intelligence and against stupidity.

Reg, I think the compelling factor in that arguement would be as to whether or not he’s bred yet and, therefore, begs the question “Which came first . . . the brick or the baby?”
Upon preview, of a notion akin to Scribble’s.

Yeah, but those creationists would try almost *anything *to prove that they’re right. Which they’re not. I’m just suprised that they haven’t *tried *(and failed).

Thank you lieu. That cracked me up. For the rest of the day, I will be adding verses to the new enhanced version of Driver on the Bus:

The…bones in your back go crunch, crunch, crunch
Crunch, crunch, crunch
Crunch, crunch, crunch…

The…artery in your leg goes squirt, squirt, squirt…

The…medic in the van says, “It’s too late…”

The…dopers on the bus go, “Wah, wah, wah…”

The…hamsters on the board go pant, pant, pant…

:smiley:

I’m going to teach my daughter those variations to the bus song…

They’re more tame than some of the ones she brings home from school.
:eek:

The . . . cop who showed up says get a shovel
get a shovel
get a shovel . . .

*The… wheels on the bus go thump, thump, thump
thump, thump, thump
thump, thump, thump…

The… driver of the bus goes “serves him right”
“serves him right”
“serves him right”…*

Surely you mean “sponge”. :dubious: DD buses are kinda pretty big.

It’s because the people who want to disprove evolution are very closely related to people like this.

And, let’s say this, extra Darwin points for stupidly dying after stupidly throwing a brick at a bus that you’ve just stupidly used, paying the fare, for your ride home. It’s the next best thing to running over yourself after you’ve vandalized your own car.
