I see, so he got in the news because he had a computer chip implant....... .. .

This makes his death more important than the other millions of people around the world dead/dying, how exactly?

OMG HE HAS AN MCSE!

How important.

This makes his death more important than the other millions of people around the world dead/dying, how exactly?

Oh, no - it doesn't.

I mean, without detracting from the fact that this is a person who has died and he was young (which, i guess particularly being an MVA would have made the news for that reason)...

BUT, They seem to be focusing on the fact that he had a computer chip implant and that he was fortunate/bright (certified by microsoft at age 12 and wanted to be a neurosurgeon) as though he's important or something rather than just an unlucky kid who unfortunately died...

Average Joe kid who died in an MVA wouldn't have gotten this much attention.
f***ing media.

I hate how the media makes out people to be more important than others and place value on peoples lives over others like that even for insignificant s***.
Not like he developed f***in warp engines or anything.

I'm not dead yet you asses :P
And when I am dead, I think i'll have bigger problems, like being dead for example. To worry about than whether or not I made it on the news :P

But I'll see if I'm jealous or not then. ^_^

haha boring friday afternoon. this is cheap fun.

Stupid thing won't let me edit it :(

here i will make it up to you

A soldier came to a fork in the road and saw a nun standing there. Out
of breath he asked, "Please Sister, may I hide under your skirts for a few minutes. I'll explain WHY later" The nun agreed.

Just a moment later two Military Police came running along and asked, "Sister, have you seen a soldier running by here?". The nun replied, "He went that
way".

After the MPs disappeared, the soldier crawled out from under her skirt and said "I can't thank you enough Sister, but you see I don't want to go to Iraq." The nun said "I think I can fully understand your fear".

The soldier added, "I hope you don't think me rude or impertinent, but you have a great pair of legs!" The nun replied, "If you had looked a little higher, you would have seen a great pair of balls....I don't want to go to Iraq either."
