This Week's Living Darwin Awards Winner........................
(from 2000).....This should be a lesson learned by all criminals; crime does pay.....IF you're looking for elective surgery to go along with your ill-gotten goods.......
An unnamed 24yo person in England learned this the hard way after stealing five live lobsters from a supermarket; after stealing them, this bright genius had the idea to stuff the lobsters.....yeah, there!, whereupon the lobsters decided to grab him.....wait for it, wait for it.........yeah, there too!!, bringing the man to his knees in front of customers at the supermarket.
Doctors were able to remove the lobsters' various claws and say that the thief will fully recover, except for one missing part! As one doctor put it, "It was a do-it-yourself vasectomy." Adding insult to injury, the supermarket manager declined to press charges, saying that "he'd already gone through enough pain to learn his lesson."
And there's your Living Darwin Awards winner for the week..................
