Stupid of the Day Award 4

Check this guy out celebrating Egypt's win over Algeria in a Soccer match.



Oh, and check out the guy on the right trying to get in on the action.
I believe that these are highly pressurized and evidently highly flammable canisters that normally should not be close to any source of fire.

Both much deserving of our coveted Stupid of the Day Award!

In other Libya related news, check out these idiots who planned an assassination by mail. Much deserving of our Stupid of the Day Award.

I'm sure most of you by now have seen Obama's fly swatting techniques thanks to the media ever so eloquently shoving it down people's throats. It's almost on every news website, and in more than one case, made the top 10 news items. I'm sure the Iranians with their "green revolution" are thrilled at the fact that they have to compete with a fly swatter for news coverage.

But, if you have been living under a rock for a week now, Obama swatted a fly and the Iranians are having a revolution.

However, I think that the story that is most newsworthy and that also deserves our Stupid of the Day Award is PETAs response to Obama's fly swatting capacities.

PETA, the People for Ethical Treatment of Animals, just came out with a statement condemning the fly swatting as "execution" and asking the President to be nicer to "the least sympathetic animals."

Followed by the following gem:
"In a nutshell, our position is this: He isn't the Buddha, he's a human being, and human beings have a long way to go before they think before they act."

And by bestowing on us such great philosophical knowledge, we here at BG et LZ, bestow on them our highly coveted Stupid of the Day Award.

So, people in Lebanon are celebrating the release of the 4 generals after years of imprisonment.
If you ask me, the release is a good thing in a way. If these generals were imprisoned unjustly then it's good that they are released.

But I'm not actually gonna get into that right now.

I'm here to present to you the Stupid of the Day straight from Beirut, the city I've learned to have a love/hate relationship with.

The absolute Lebanese requirement for any celebration, is gunfire followed with some baklava mixed in with some fireworks.

Usually people take precautions with these kinds of things, but eh, we have hospitals, don't we???



Holding an ENTIRE box of fireworks with his BARE hands.


My absolute favorite: when you incorporate the essential cigarette into the mix!

most probably a Marlboro!
