Take it easy!
Last week, we had a kid go ape shit, killing someone and stabbing 3 others because someone was making fun of his farts. This week, we learn of a story where a girl stabbed another kid because the latter was making fun of the former’s stinky feet.
A drunken Washington state teen convicted of stabbing a young man who accused her of having stinky feet must complete a writing assignment while in prison. Dallas Smith, 18, pleaded guilty to second-degree assault with a knife for stabbing Willy Simpson, 19, at a Sept. 7 party after Simpson teased Smith about having smelly feet, The Herald of Everett, Wash., reported.
Farts and feet. They smell, folks. Everyone’s smell. Why are people getting defensive over the scent of the most foul parts of one’s body?
“Let me be absolutely clear: This case is not about smelly feet,” the judge said. “It is about binge drinking and (the) criminal behavior that did flow from that.”
Oh ok. That’s a decent point. Sorry, your honor. Drunk, I once tried to put myself in the clothes dryer because I wanted to feel what it would be like. Maybe alcohol does impede your judgment. Who knew?

That's the spirit!
It used to be that if you volunteered, donated your time, helped the poor, worked hard, went the extra mile, were compassionate, thought about the greater good and were generally a nice person that people would like you and respect you more. Well, it’s not true. Apparently everyone thinks you should STFU and stop trying to make them look bad.
A series of studies found that those who volunteer to take on unwanted tasks or who hand out gifts without being prompted, quickly alienate themselves. Psychologists believe this is because it makes the rest of us feel guilty and puts pressure on us to behave in an equally selfless fashion. Researchers say do-gooders come to be resented because they ‘raise the bar’ for what is expected of everyone.
Yeah, God forbid we do something socially useful! This is the America Goddamnit and in Americawe do whatever the hell we want without pause, without hesitation and without apology. Don’t like it? Move to some family-living co-op in Copenhagen and compost your waste, hippy.
Professor Parks, of Washington State University, carried out a series of four tests with groups of people which showed that do-gooders got people’s backs up. In each case others reacted by wanting them thrown out of the group.
Haha, what?! Yeah, thanks for the help compadre…now give me all your money, you little bitch. Actions and opinions like this really bode well for us “higher primates” as a species in a world of depleting resources, less space and more people. Someone get altruism a defibrillator before it’s too late.

Oh boy.
Sipping my morning coffee on a Saturday morning is a time for me to reflect on the week that was. And it is also time for me to read some idiotic shit like this.
A legally insane killer was on the loose in the state of Washington on Saturday, two days after he escaped during a field trip to a county fair, authorities said.
Oh brother. That’s right, this murderous paranoid schizophrenic got to go on a field trip to a county fair. I’m all for not shackling crazy people to large pieces of lead and dumping them into the ocean but field trips might be a bit much the other way, no?
Paul was committed to Eastern State Hospital after admitting he strangled and slit the throat of community activist Ruth Motley in 1987, KREM-TV reported. According to court documents obtained by KREM, Paul believed Motley was a witch and killed her in response to voices in his head. He subsequently burned a deer carcass as a sacrifice, according the documents.
Yeah, why not give him some time to eat some cotton candy and try to win the big stuffed panda bear at the local fair? What could possibly go wrong with a psychotic killer at an event like that? But I know, I know. I’m being too harsh. These people have serious mental illnesses and they deserve to g-
“He’s the only paranoid schizophrenic — I’ve seen hundreds, maybe thousands of them — that frightened me,” Dr. Frank Hardy, a licensed psychiatrist, says in one of the documents, according to KREM. “The first time I took one look at him — and I’ve never done this before or since — I asked the jailer to remain in the room while I examined him.
Fantastic.

Washington MD
I think one of the last things you ever want to here is the following:
TEEN OUTSMARTS DOCTORS IN SCIENCE CLASS
That phrase concerns me, right along with A) The condom broke and I’m pregnant, B) Bend over buddy, and relaaaaaaax, and C) Son, your mother and I have decided we’d like to attend our next “swinger” party. These all make my nipples contract with fear.
But apparently this really happened at Eastside Catholic School in Washington.
“Eighteen-year-old Jessica Terry, brought slides of her own intestinal tissue into her AP science class and correctly diagnosed herself with Crohn’s disease.” (How the fuck did she get these by the way?)
“For years she went from doctor to doctor complaining of vomiting, diarrhea, weight loss and stomach pains. They said she had irritable bowel syndrome. They said she had colitis. They said the slides of her intestinal tissue were fine, but she knew that wasn’t right.”
Years. Doctors misdiagnoed her for YEARS. What kind of test to you have to take to become a doctor in Washington?
If I ever end up at a doctor’s office in Washington I’m going to bring a Merck Manual, a dictionary, and season’s 1-4 of House. Make damn sure I know what I got and how to get rid of it!
WTF!
