For the cows, anyway. Title: Re: Worst way to go, ever. Post by: Engels on July 04, 2007, 03:14:10 PM At first I thought maybe it was some freak presidential debate accident.

It was a products liability question. I almost died laughing (which almost got me booted from the exam for distracting others) because all I could think was, "Hey, I'm drowning in bullshit too!"

And now the two surviving kids are going to have to deal with hearing "Ahahaha, wait are you serious?" everytime they explain the great trauma of their lives.

"Yeah, the rest of my family died while doing 180 in a Suburban off the side of an offramp. Not died in a pile of cow shit. Nope." Title: Re: Worst way to go, ever. Post by: Teleku on July 05, 2007, 07:53:18 PM As funny as the situation is, I kind of feel uneasy joking about it, or reading jokes. I mean, a whole family got wiped out. More than that, two little girls went running into the pit to try and save their parents who basically died in front of their eyes, only to die themselves.
Thats just a bit.........grim. Title: Re: Worst way to go, ever. Post by: Selby on July 05, 2007, 08:41:36 PM I didn't know Methane could be instantly fatal as these guys describe it. I must be missing something. My gas is bad, but I've never killed anyone. It displaces oxygen. Same thing with CO2 in a pit or tank that has been pumped down. You get down in it and your oxygen is mostly gone and you pass out pretty quickly, especially if you didn't think to hold your breath to try and make a bee line for the ladder back up. Fall down in crap and it's pretty much over.Title: Re: Worst way to go, ever.

While I feel as you do, people make jokes to avoid the horror. Let them. Yes, this is actually, at the heart of it, a fucking tragic story. But there's enough of them if one wants to look hard enough. Title: Re: Worst way to go, ever. Post by: cmlancas on July 06, 2007, 11:52:36 AM Oh man, a hole full of shit pwns an entire family.

Why did the AP edit out the Vanguard boxes in the picture? Oh, you really meant a hole full of shit for realz. Hrm. Title: Re: Worst way to go, ever.
