The one saving grace is that someone that stupid couldn't figure out how to have sex and reproduce.
The next one to go is the amoeba brain doing a burout 'in memorium'.
How can anyone who doesn't know how to dress themselves get a licence?

Lets have a "harm minimisation" TV education campaign!

Just before cartoon shows, run ads showing cool looking kids sniffing various flammable inhalants - especially commonly available household ones.

Then show other kids arriving with cigarettes, electric heaters, hair driers and welding torches saying - "Gizasniff?" and then just before everything blows sky-high, give an "educational message". Cullen could use some of my money for that - yeah - cool.

Yep.

Got a call from a so called intelligent professional person who's car we have booked in for an LPG conversion today.
He was considering cancelling as he had heard about the death and assumed it was because of a fault with the LPG system on the car.
Did he check the story out, no.
I had to, and ring him back and settle his precious soul.

Now we find out what really happened....phew,I can still jamb my bottle between the front and rear seats so it won't roll around.

I can't beleive how unbeleivable stupid this younger generation coming through now is......ok,it's natural to be somewhat thick at that age,but really.....

I blame computer games and PC bullshit.

No-one has a reason to fear pain anymore. They do something dumb in a game - they die, oh well.. try again

The do something dumb in real life they get a stern telling off (no yelling though - that's abusive).

Go figure

Yes it can. Like most other volatile hydrocarbons when inhaled or ingested, LPG/propane has an effect on the human central nervous system.

That would explain the sores on Hitchers face and the semi-glazed expression.....

I couldnt believe it, this happened in my street, albeit a couple of hundred meters up the road, WHY?, for the price of an LPG fill you could get a bottle of cheap booze, or even brought some weed (I'm not pushing that idea but surely its better than huffing)

what is going wrong with our kids?

Tell me about it, I have 4 small children aged 10-2, and I am despreatly looking for the perfect house to buy, but everything in our (or almost anyones price range) has been subdivided to 400m2 or less

IE no outside living. Ask the realestate agents and they say "people don't want large sections anymore" WTF??? no one asked me.

I believe the local council should be taken to task for allowing this to happen.

anyway back to the topic, remember the girl who died riding down Baldwin st in Dunedin in a wheelie bin? well she was from Blenheim too

Blenheim to Dunedin, now that's a long way to go in a Wheeliebin. But if she had survived the Baldwin Street gig, she would have been a legend. The idea was brilliant. Successfully executing it was the issue.
