2 normals are better then 1 cripple


holy fuck some people are stupid
It still doesn't make sense. How is that "playing?" You're right: People are stupid. The ones who think this punchline makes sense are stupid.

I get C&H's humor, but this one tripped and fell on its face. Only the stupid people thought it worked as a joke. It could have easily been worded in a way for that punchline to make sense. My criticism has nothing to do with being pretentious about jokes at a cripple's expense and everything to do with it simply being a bad joke that doesn't (but easily could) make sense.

You're right.

You're being pretentious for completely different reasons.

I want video of that particular incident. That 2nd guy is about to get clocked in the head with the bat.

This was posted here before. This just proves the fire department ALWAYS shows up first. LOL

I was a firefighter explorer and this was the case all the time.

I'm not disparaging firefighters in ANY way, but the reason they can generally be there quicker is because they have to to respond to far far fewer calls than the police department.

You know I am not wanting to support the criminal but I fail to see why the firefighters decided to attack and slam the recovering criminal to the ground with excessive force with no justification? He was already basically done and he was not able to go anywhere. This is a question that concerns the firefighters themselves. Very troubling how they used some small shit to escalate the situation. It looks like to me they even told the guy to get up and then used the fact of him getting up as some type of possible threatening position or attempting to run to then use excessive force against that guy.

Why isn't this in "The Cute" section?

Answer = SNAKE!!!

Seriously, there is absolutely nothing cuddly about a snake, any snake, EVER!!!

They'll cuddle you though, and even give a bit of a neck massage. My ball python would do that sometimes. Though I have the distinct feeling that it was just getting comfortable while wrapped around a squishy heat source.

Stupid store owner, why did he let him live? He could come back with ACLU and sue the owner for his life's earning...

I don't think that's true. The ambulance gets the call as does the fire department and most of the time fire shows on scene first. Ask a firefighter. ;)

Kindly take this crap back to P&N, and keep it out of Offtopic's humor thread, thanks.

I might agree with you, but...
