Meet the next winner of the Darwinism awards!

But seriously, I feel bad the guy got hurt but I can't believe this made the front page of the Oklahoma today!  I mean...seriously?  The guy was cleaning his lawnmower in his living room with gasoline at around 11pm!  Who does that?

So very sad! He died this afternoon. But that certainly is a Darwin Award winner. Wowie. It sounds like the neighbor who put him out suggested the gasoline... can you imagine living with that sort of guilt?

I was afraid that that fellow would pass. That's terrible to hear. But yes, the neighbor did suggest the cleaning the engine with gasoline. I can't imagine the guilt. I wonder if the victim's family is going to sue. I can't imagine if that would be possible or not but geez. It's tragic.

Hello Anonymous,

Well, I hope you don't think it served him right to get hurt! No one ever deserves to get hurt.

Thanks, Anonymous!
