Brutal!...at what point does one decide to scale the side of a high-rise rather than go and ask for a key?...I feel sorry for her family and friends that have to deal with this tragedy due to complete lack of common sense! - Thu, 20 Nov 2008 1:12pm

Be happy that she didn't have kids and passed on the 'stupid' genes. Too many idiots on this planet already. - Thu, 20 Nov 2008 7:34pm

Sorry, but a bunch of comments from her workmates/friends doesn't make her any less of a Darwin Award nomination. Only a complete idiot crawls over a 15th/16th story balcony to climb down 1 floor with not a single piece of climbing equipment. Even a freehand climber would've had their trusty chalk bag with them so they didn't lose grip.

One of our employees is a certified climbing instructor, and he said the exact same thing. This woman was completely moronic thinking she could do this, just so she didn't have to disturb her new hubby at work.

Well guess what genius? You think her hubby's all happy and warm inside now? Think her family is? I can hear it now... They're all gathered around her casket at the funeral home telling her how proud they are that she decided to do such a wonderful thing.

This is just another prime example of how basic common sense is completely lost, and that is what's sad about the story... Nothing else.

A good friend of mine has a great saying. "When the final solution to stupidity is found, I want to be loading up the trains". - Fri, 21 Nov 2008 2:55pm Edited: Fri, 21 Nov 2008 2:59pm

one side of the coin; yes a woman died. On the other side... it was complete lunacy to even try such a thing... been said before i know.
It does nothing to point out the obveous that it was a stupid idea; but it also doesn't help the cause when friends and family are backing the decision this girl made. Regardless of what they think her past accomplishments were; it was STUPID.
I know I feel sorry for her family and friends for feeling obligated to justify what she did. But then again, its kinda callous to be pointing fingers like an elementry school kid laughing at someone when they're flying low.
I think this is something more to forget(the situation regarding this persons death); and just remember who she was and what she did... and shit, maybe even a darwin nomination is in the cards :P(... i know, very low brow lol) - Sat, 22 Nov 2008 2:16am

Must be nice to be completely delusional. In your mind you're right because that's your morals. We all don't have the same morals.

'Chopper,do you change the station when the CCF ad's are on?'

Nah, I just mute the sound and add my own sick brand of comedic 'voice over'. Usually get a chuckle from whoever's in the room at the time. - Sat, 22 Nov 2008 2:27am

Highly unlikely you'll ever meet me. I don't think we travel in the same social 'scenes'. In fact I'll guarantee we don't.

Don't drink, so won't find me in a bar, unless it's one of the odd local shows I attend. Last gig I went to was Horrorpops at sugar about a month ago. Although not drinking does get me free non-alch drinks. 'Oh you're the designated driver? Don't worry about it'. - Tue, 25 Nov 2008 5:13pm

Geez, people where’s the love… Is Chopper a musician? Is flatulence? Who cares… you have to play an instrument to have an opinion on here? I can sing! I can play a drum beat! My boyfriend is a drummer does that count? What is with all the low blows…I know I can be a bitch and hardly anyone agrees with my opinion, and I have poked fun of people on here, but I would never blatantly be an asshole for no reason…life’s too short to be such a dick…get over yourself …would it kill you to smile? - Thu, 27 Nov 2008 9:24am Edited: Thu, 27 Nov 2008 9:46am

Sorry to brake it to you but this is a pretty idiotic statement (if you can call it that) if I’ve ever heard one!

I started this thread about stupid people and clearly stupid people are responding, funny.

I’ve heard Bounce sing, she’s pretty good and smokin’ hot too, but still she’s up for a Darwin as well. - Fri, 28 Nov 2008 10:35am

So, some idiot falls off a building and dies.
Bummer.
But all you assholes can do is bicker among yourselves about which of you is the biggest idiot?!
I've met and worked with people with all levels of education and life experience, and one thing I can tell you FOR SURE is there's very few actual idiots out there.
Some people have an incredible lack of common sense, and most often those people have the highest levels of education. On the other hand I've had absolutely brilliant conversations with people rich in life experiences but very little education.
Whenever I hear someone call another person 'stupid' I just see someone with self-esteem issues who fails to understand another person's perspective.
There's a difference between acting stupid and being stupid. The girl who died probably wasn't stupid, but what she did was pretty fucking dumb-ass. - Fri, 28 Nov 2008 11:26am
