No matter how often she had heard 'don't tutch the but', she refused to believe it would end badly.

2. Oh no you didn't!
Our dear mcctatas was found lying in a garbage can this morning. Standing next to the can was a child, who only identified himself as "the but-tutcher." When asked what happened, his only response was, "I SAID I didn't want to wear that Captain Underpants costume!"

6. Taterguy suffered severe testicular crushing as he slid off his bike seat...
onto the crossbar after hitting a fire-hydrant because he was distracted by trying to light a cigarette with a cheap lighter while riding drunk.

8. I'm not going to say who, but it happened in a traffic jam caused by the closure of all of..
the tollbooths on a Delaware expressway. There had been accidents as multiple cars tried to squeeze into single spots. As the cars sat there, some of the people began getting out and talking to their neighbors. Conversation turned to how this could have been avoided if Delaware were to drop its predatory toll policies. One driver of a minivan in the crowd was especially vocal on the issue, possibly because of the boxed wine she had been drinking from occasionally. Finally the dear departed, after enduring much criticism of Delaware, snapped and started wailing on the people she described as "fucking village idiots". The police arrived to the scene of the disturbance and drew their tazers. Ultimately these tazers lit her up like a Christmas tree.

13. Poor Rabrrrrrr.
While fleeing an angry mob of teenagers who had invaded his lawn, he tried to crawl through a painting, mistaking in his haste the eerily life-like entryway to a small, well-lit pastoral cottage in a Thomas Kincaide painting for the real thing. Driven to sheer terror by the mob, who by now were chanting "Womanizer" (for reasons noone has fully explained), Rabrrrrr clawed through the gallery's plaster wall into a neighboring club and was electrocuted when he grabbed the exposed wires at the back of a Rush Tribute Karoake Machine. He would have survived, but when he realized he was stuck between the a capella Britney Spears chant behind him and the redneck crowd's off-key twang-infused rendition of "Free Will" before him, he ended his misery by hanging himself with the microphone chord.

36. CreekDog,
passed away quietly last night. He had been mistakenly identified as a female and had been given a feminine medication that caused him to go into convulsions and lose consciousness.

RIP CreekDog.

40. ghostsofgiants was found dead Wednesday evening.
Apparently he had been locked in a room by some sadistic individual known as 'Chad' who forced him to listen to Nickelback's latest album at max volume ten times in a row.
Cause of death was reported to be his brain destroying itself in an act of self-preservation.

41. PaddyBlueEyes was the victim of a brutal attack by an enraged
check-out woman at an upstate NY grocery store when he mistakenly mistook her offer for "pop in the sack" as an invitation for a roll in the hay. The assailant however was released when officers could not stop laughing long enough to slap the cuffs on her.

49. Creekdog
Edited on Thu Feb-12-09 09:22 PM by DS1
was so busy filing and printing his complaints about invalid Darwin Awards when the printer jammed, and he leaned too forward and his HP LaserJet IV sucked in his balls and sent out cross-sections of his testicles finally proving that he didn't have testicular cancer and he was fit for firefighter duty. Well, he was, until his balls were sliced off in millimeter increments.

That's when Delta Force contacted him, they need guys who are tough enough to not flinch when their balls are being sliced away by a printer.
It's in the handbook.

Section Delta, Chapther 3, Your Testicles and You.


There's 2 ways to get into Delta Force. One takes a long time, involving being accepted to the 75th Ranger Detachment and from there you are chosen by the elite of the elite HP warriors, the other is to not whimper when your balls are shredded by a printer. It's a tough indoctrination.

Either way, you cannot reproduce, but you can kick some ass. Mostly because you're angry about not being able to reproduce, and you're the best of the best and you still have no balls. The Army overlooks not having any balls for Delta. It's in the book.

53. Walt Starr
After his sudden departure from DU he fell into a downward spiral. His wife left him for a professional dog-walker. His kids took out a restraining order against him with a 35-mle radius. His dogs pissed on his baseball card collection. His job was outsourced to Zimbabwe. His home was destroyed in a tragic blimp accident.

Destitute, he became an unemployed vagrant in Los Angeles, where he briefly sold oranges from the median. However after a day of standing on the median of the 405 freeway and being pelted with high-velocity shoes, mostly-empty coffee cups, and the occasional trucker bomb he fled for the safety and coolness of a highway overpass.

While venting his fustrations about the work in a series of anatomically-correct graffies, the local criminal gang took issue with the covering up of their territorial symbols.

"Since you can't take me posting on your site, tombstone me right the fuck now!" cried the defiant Starr.

"Okay" said the pistol-wielding gang leader with a shrug.


The rest is history.
