ORIGINAL: jwsimons
i thought i was reading my own post for a second, sacicons.
i think my favorite darwin is the guy with ins forms. (somebody with the book , please fill in blank spots in my memory)
this guy is building an 80' tall ham radio antena tower, upon completion ha has somewhere around 300 lbs of materials and tools in a bucket, he weighs around 150 or so. he has the bucket tied to something on the ground, he unties it, and it pulls him off the ground, when he reaches the mid point he collides with the bucket, resulting in a broken shoulder and head injurys, still ascending he reaches the pulley, resulting in the smashed fingers. when the bucket hit the ground, the bottom broke out, now the weight change made him descend rapidlyon the way down he hit the bucket again, and then when he hit the ground , he finaly let go of the rope, only to have the bucket come back down and hit his *** again. on his insurance form he summed all this up as.....poor planning

So a friend of mine dates this girl for about a year and a half. She cheats on him repeatedly. He knows. His response: "Meh."
He finally gets tired of it. Breaks up with her. She STILL lives at his house, where he pays all the bills (and has been this entire time).
They get into a fight. She's at his house, he leaves, avoiding further conflict. He left HIS house...because he didn't want to fight anymore with an ex... :|
I think that's a sign.

RE: darwin awards!!
