I just learned that this not so bright fella was drunk driving while on vacation and unfortunately was in an accident and was killed. The thing was he has been out on disability and he’s been down in Florida and was windsurfing and bodysurfing and parasailing on the money he has been receiving for his “work injury”.
Luckily no other car was involved in the accident.

Most of us know about the Darwin Awards. I just had a call from a friend at work about one of our coworkers that deserves honorable Darwin Award mention.
The guy is 48yrs old, divorced last year, he left her, and so he started on this new life. He decided to lose weight as he has one of those pregnant woman bellies and he belts his pants under his tummy.
He drinks slim fast, he eats KFC as “it is chicken” and tons of diet soda. He says he walks enough and lifts enough boxes at work. He works in Shipping & Receiving.
What the guy did was he started taking a spoonful of bird grit with each meal!!! He had asked me about eating healthy and I suggested an easy thing to do would up his fiber and protein (I also invited him to work out with me, but he declined). I suggested more lean meats, Benefiber and celery. NOOOOOOO he has parakeets which I guess you give the bird grit so they can digest their food. So the guy has been downing a spoonful of grit with each meal and has been doing this for a week or so. It clumped like kitty litter in his intestines and he was rushed to the hospital today from work due to severe gastric pain.
I don’t know the whole story but they may have to remove part of his intestine due to damage and infection from the grit.
folks… don’t eat bird grit.

Sorry, but he doesn’t deserve the Darwin Award for eating the grit. He deserve it because he DECLINED to workout with you? WTF is he thinking!?!?!

Yep, it looks like Darwin won this one afterall.
I still don’t understand how this was a work injury. Did the job require him to eat bird grit?

I didn’t know this before but . . . they’re not actually promised 72 virgins.

He filed for Worker’s Comp saying it was a hernia that caused the injury to his intestine. He was actually taken to the emergency room from work due to pain in his gut.
I was at work today and talking with one of the guys in Shipping and Receiving and one of his friends said he had already received $8000.00 as a compensation award, but it wasn’t really a compensation award.
I am getting this all second hand, but the money was to stop him from filing a lawsuit that he was talking about, and have him go to mediation.
I dunno, but apparently he’s been a party hound since then. He was getting the disability, still getting his health benefits and the paymet into his 401k and he got the $8000.
but now… just what an idiot. I am glad he didn’t hurt anyone else in the accident.
I’m glad he died. Like I actually am glad karma got the best of him. Sometimes the worst people in life aren’t the criminials, but the stupid asses that exploit others and bring down the gene pool.
