I had a friend in high school (I'm so tempted to tag him on FB) who did exactly this: tib/fib breaks on both legs.

Nation’s Idiots Announce Plans To Jump Off Their Roofs Into A Pile Of Snow And Break Their Fucking Legs

Popular Deals on The Inventory1/14/19 9:57AM•SEE MORE:WEATHER




CARBONDALE, IL—Stating their dumbass intentions to get a running start and scream “cowabunga,” the nation’s idiots announced plans Monday to jump off their roofs into a pile of snow and break their fucking legs. “We dunces stand on our roof gutters today, fully prepared to jump 20 feet to the ground and straight into a mountain of powder that we assume will break our fall, but almost certainly will cause our bones to crack,” said 29-year-old dipshit Lyle Bennett, one of thousands of morons nationwide who will snap their limbs in motherfucking half after trying out a backflip, slipping on a roof tile, or doing a pencil dive and holding their nose as if going into a pool. “We will, of course, ask our idiot friend if he’s filming yet before we plunge down and shatter our arms, legs, and necks in one fell swoop. Consequently, you should expect us to repeatedly show our broken bones to the camera, flailing them around and freaking everyone the fuck out.” The nation’s buddies added that they promise to put the whole thing on YouTube, including the part where they simultaneously yell out “Are you okay, dude?”

Try and get back to basics this week. Learning to dress yourself, brush your teeth, and eat with utensils would be a good place to start.

Report: You Live In An Embarrassing Country
WASHINGTON—According to a new report published Wednesday by the Pew Research Center, you live in a deeply embarrassing and barely functional country. “Our latest research and statistical analysis shows that you are currently the citizen of an objectively humiliating nation wreathed in a miasma of pettiness, sloth, rank stupidity, and failure,” the report read in part, adding that this—this goddamned disgrace of a culture and system of government, if that’s what you call whatever the hell this is—is where you live, where you are from, and where you will likely die. “Decline and dysfunction are currently the first things people across the world think of when they hear the name of your place of origin, and, by association, these are the first words that would come to mind when they think of you as well.” The report concluded that there isn’t a whole hell of a lot you can do about it either.

Just saw this. This has become one scary country in the last decade or so. When I was a kid, people could believe in America. After the Bush/Cheney devastation and the knife in the back follow up guy, it makes me wanna puke.

One of the proudest moments of my life was getting on the air when the editor of the Onion was on NPR a few years ago.  Listeners of the show were invited to call in and propose headlines to have stories written about.  I was actually able to make her laugh by proposing "Supreme Court Rules Mafia Hiring Practices Discriminatory."

And it's all been downhill for my life since then. lol
