    Dumb and dumber

    I can't recall the name of this movie--it's a documentary that is a guy talking about his eye condition and the surgery he considers. Anyway, there are cutaways to various people talking about eye injuries they suffered: one woman Super Glued her eye, thinking she was putting in eye drops (surprisingly, this was not a big deal, it dried and flaked off) ; one woman slept with her eyes open and had really, really dry eyes; my favorite was a good ol boy who was working on his car, some sort of cleaning involving a wire brush--a piece of wire punctures his eye, he pulls it out with pliers (he was quick to say he wiped the grease off them first), the eyeball leaks out fluid and collapses, he--this is the piece de resistance--FINISHES THE WORK ON HIS CAR and drives himself to the hospital.


    Talk about truth being stranger than fiction! What possessed these morons to use gasoline like this? I hope they were drunk or high, being this stupid cold sober is hard to grasp.:D As they say: DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME!!!!!:o

    Here are a couple more for contention.

    Edit. it won't let me link directly to the video but check out the Bonfire video. Actually a lot of these are funny.
