Humans are doomed. Lets laugh! Juggling grenades at a party. Dumb but it happens!** Giant carbon footprint. Dumb but it happens! Bee cannot change Hive. Taking a selfie! Worlds most dangerous act. Welcome, friends to the Darwin Awards.

DARWIN AWARDS ::
(1) Out of the gene pool and/or dead,
(2) from your own initiative,
(3) in a staggering, jaw-dropping, breathtaking, stone-cold-stunner,
(4) you luckily did not wipe out innocent others,
(5) and the fine print:

FINE PRINT :: And not sad cuz you had a think impair & should have been under care, or you were running for your life, or that it really was not your fault. Like being crushed by a 10-kilometer asteroid.

HONORABLE MENTIONS ::
If thinking got us into this problem, why can’t thinking can get us out of it? So, let’s think about it!

Enjoy!

Darwin Awards readers like science, tech, logic, and stupid human antics. We have a morbid wit about witlessness. Enjoy wicked discussions and snarky posts about how that other guy is the problem. Be a part of this quick-witted group, who think we are definitely not part of the problem. LOL
