More "Jackasses" on Fox News

[Tmy]

Fox was showingthis tape of some idiot teenager jumping ff the roof of a hotel into a pool. Great idea right! Not when you miss! He hits the edge of the pool and his legs snap like slim jims. HA!

DO you think its right for people to blame Mtv and Jackass for inspiring stupid people to copy the stunts????

No, it's not right. Too bad that the people that tried to mimick the stunts didn't die while trying to perform them. Only a complete moron would try to copy something like that off of TV. The world is a better place without idiots such as them.

...and can we then blame rock music for sexual promiscuity, sports for inducing violence, pornography for boners? :D

It's all a question of risk-taking lifestyles, and personal responsibility. And although the parents of these unfortunates are often lackadaisical, kids do things that just can't be pinned on their folks...

The more truthful motto wouldn't sell 'em:

"Open the package with your teeth, chew the greasy meat-like substance."

Maybe we should blame those responsible for making video cameras affordable. If these kids didn't have a camera they couldn't videotape stunts, could they? Back in my day when we did something stupid we could only describe it to our friends. Of course I usually made sure I could reach the pool when I jumped off a roof.

Blaming TV is a lot easier than accepting that kids are reckless and will do stupid stuff as part of growing up.

There in lies the problem.

They really have to do something that is as stupid as it sounds, rather than just embellishing it the way we always did. ;)

Based on the title, I thought this was going to be another Fox-bashing thread. Boy am I disappointed.

Why are people so stupid? I guess I'm old enough to not remember how teenagers are immortal and the chances I took with my own life.

I don't actually like slim jims but I have to have a beef stick every day. Ingredents say "beef products". Damn good beef products. Would testicles, brains, lips and toung qualify as beef products? I just love to get a big, long piece of meat in mouth everyda.... Hey! I'm talking about beef sticks (http://www.bigchiefbeefjerky.com/products/hot_bstick.html)

Chewy, mouth watering, nutritional beef snacks burst with flavor. Our jerky and beef sticks are carefully tended during the curing process to insure each bite maintains that delicious, mouth-watering, full bodied flavor that comes only from lean cut 100% Alberta beef. As much as I like my meat I share my meat. I don't mind if other people want to eat my meat... HEY!!! Keep it clean.
