Is this teen a Darwin Award candidate?

[Evo]

Anyone this dumb will surely win the Darwin award one day.

"the 17-year-old spilled gas on his pants while siphoning. He then used a lighter to try to determine how wet his pants were and set himself on fire"

How the hell did Pengwunio manage to get himself on msnbc?

Evo, you put the wrong quote:

A teenage boy accidentally set himself on fire early Wednesday morning after allegedly trying to siphon gas from a firefighter's car.

The irony.

Maybe abortion should be freely available with an 18 year time limit...

Kind of like South Park's late late abortion @ 8 years old.

So many things are ironic about this story.

It was a firefighter's car !

The fire got him in the legs, but (presumably) missed his umm.. legumes. That would've been a blessing, would have taken his swimmers right out of the gene pool.

An he would have gotten the award.

I'm sure I'll win one for something that involves using a blasting cap to ignite a hybrid rocket, turning it into a pipe bomb in my face. Maybe sunday.
