I’m 99.99% sure this is a hoax or an Onion-style post, but it’s funny anyway, and the responses write themselves: > **[Man Ingests 10 lbs of Bacon Rectally, Dies](http://www.modernprimate.com/man-ingests-10-lbs-of-bacon-rectally-dies/)** > > An attempt at viral fame ended in tragedy Monday when a 22 year-old social media intern took his love of internet humor too far. Joshua Flaherty of New Brunswick, NJ passed away at Robert Wood… Rectum?..(\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_)! ---

Y’know, I have to admit, I really don’t see the logical connection between “bacon is really good” and “therefore, I’ll stuff it up my butt”. What, does he have taste buds down there? Every pound of bacon inserted is a pound of bacon not eaten. ---

I’m pretty sure the article, and the ‘replies’ beneath it, are BS. But mildly amusing BS. If it were ever found out to be true, I think I’d have to write mankind off as an Epic Failure. ---

I was buying up till the end with the comment from the mother. But that mustache alone should get him 10 pounds of foot up his ass. ---

Of course it’s fake. That “guy’s” photo is like the… (checks)… 17th image when searching “hipster” on GIS. ---

If you couldn’t tell that article was pure satire (not as good as _The Onion_, though), then I can see why it’s taking longer than we thought. (Although, apparently [bacon lube](http://baconlube.com/) exists. NSFW) ---

That looks like a college photo of Rollie Fingers. I think _The Onion_ should be renamed _The Pottymouth Weekly._ :rolleyes:
