Sounds like a true candidate for a Darwin Award.


he would not qualify.. he's still alive and able to wreck more havoc... but
maybe his next attempt at nomination he'll succeed... just hope he does not
take his family with him..


I guess that makes sense if you're just using "Darwin Award" as a
euphemism for "died". But the true meaning (and the definition of the
real award takes account of this) is about removing his contribution
to the gene pool, and by that definition wouldn't we have to hope he
*did* take his children, at least, with him?

Not that I approve of *actually* wishing people dead; just a
theoretical discussion of the terminology.
