The last one reminds me of that Japanese kid who got himself killed by persistently attacking random people.

What about the guy who died trying to do a Bigfoot prank wearing a ghillie suit? Turns out, it's a bad idea to be walking around in highway traffic wearing military camouflage...

Technically, it's law enforcement camouflage, since Ghillie invented it to catch poachers in. Military uses such as snipers came up because it's that good. (For those who've never seen one used, if done properly, you can be close enough to touch a person wearing one of these suits and have no idea they're there. At least one US military sniper training program teaches their use, and tests proficiency by having the student hide while being monitored by one instructor, who then talks a second instructor to the student over radio. If the student has prepared and used his suit properly, the second instructor will not be able to tell where the student is until he actually touches the student.)

The mistake the guy made was walking around highway traffic in the first place. Out on a highway, while moving, a Ghillie suit is pretty much worthless as camouflage. They work by making you impossible to pick out of wild or semi-wild vegetation when not moving.

Who was a solid 7
She then became Marilyn Monroe
Cranking it to 11"

I can't help but doubt my professor saying that the vertically integrated regulated monopoly structure of power companies has been extremely successful.  As I even said in my notes: "Compared to WHAT, Einstein?"

i've been thinking about that question "compared to what?" I know it's common around here and I'm curious as to who the progenitor is.

I first heard it from Stefan Molyneux.
