Crackheads, the most dangerous game.
If you thought the post yesterday about pitching a no-hitter while on acid celebrated drug use, here’s a post that absolutely does not celebrate drug use. It’s a crackhead being taunted by some guys with a laser pointer.
Although, truth be told, I have more sympathy for the crackhead than I do for the schmucks with the laser. These guys are just mean and say “dude” too much. They’ve been drinking the Tucker Max CamelBak juice. Special shout out to bored frat guys—being a drunken douche doesn’t automatically make your life a spiritual complement to “I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell.” Tucker Max, say what you will about him, can at least string together a few sentences with token dollops of remorse and self deprecation. Quoting “Borat” and being cruel to the homeless just makes you a drunken douche.
The lesson here? Don’t do drugs. The second lesson here? Don’t hang out with these guys.
There’s some debate about whether or not this is real. I say it’s too mindless and uninspired to be staged. YOU be the judge! (Hat tip to Misty!)

So, this is what passes for newsworthy these days?
Wow.
The people making the video should be arrested. And the people posting the video should be arrested.
Walter Cronkite, you guys ain't.
Find something honest to report on, go take a journalism class. It boggles the mind that we are so easily entertained that we will watch idiots watching idiots and call THEM idiots.
Seriously, aren't there wildfires or Amazonian depletion or hurricanes or even frickin' _2012_ to report on? Something that matters? This falls under the subdomain of NEWS. It's not.
The idea that somebody got paid to put this little number together and call it news not only sickens and infuriates me, but helps me to understand how such large numbers of people fall under the spell of Fox Noise and think it's real.
To both the guys that made the video, and the guys that posted it here in the name of news, I say, "get a life".

I agree this is cruel beyond belief. At the same time, I still laughed a bit - until they got the poor guy arrested.
Yes, I'm a horrible person.
