    What did you laugh at today that you probably shouldn't have?

    I laughed when I read that David Buckle, a gay rights lawyer, burned himself to death in a park in New York as a protest over global warming.

    I know it's sad for his family but still, what was he thinking?!

    The irony is that his last act was to contribute to global warming :eek:

    I didn't really laugh at that so much as facepalm. Not to speak ill of the dead or suicide or anything, but there is a subtle nod towards hypocrisy with how he ended his life.

    Anyway here's my contribution:

    I saw pigeons fly into a mans face in Smithfield today.

    Couldn't stop laughing, I gave the child that was chasing them some spare change for an ice-cream, because it cheered me up no end.

    It's always more fun to make others laugh at something dark and inappropriate. That way, they're going to hell. You're just the messenger.

    Numerous "mad lipz" videos sent to me via WhatsApp.

    Won't share the particular one that was of extremely bad taste, but I laughed me bollox off at it. :D

    I'm not sure what is the greater 'crime' (for want of a better word). The fact that his passenger isn't wearing a seatbelt or that he's apparently filming when driving (I stand to be corrected) or THAT HE'S FILMING VERTICALLY?!

    Ok this will hurt a bit at first, but stick with it for the 5 seconds.

    Then Tyrell jumps out from the bushes with the extinguisher, and it's Time magazine and the Ted talks money trough.

    Can't believe no ones thought of this.

    Never heard of yer man but was going to make a "Late Late Show" radio related quip but thought better of it in case I get feckin' banned. Probably be in bad taste and offend people.

    Still, I don't see what was funny about yer man burning himself.....Maybe I'm missing something from the story???
