ANOTHER GUY SHOOTS HIMSELF WHILE TAKING A SELFIE

A 43-year-old man in Concrete, Washington, has died after authorities say he accidentally shot himself in the face while taking selfies. The man and his girlfriend were photographing themselves with the weapon on Sunday when he shot himself, apparently confusing the camera in one hand with the gun trigger in the other. The man’s girlfriend, who was with him when the gun went off, told authorities that the pair had taken several selfies with the gun throughout the day. The man unloaded the gun before each photo session, then replaced the bullets when they were done. But before the final photograph, he apparently left one bullet inside the gun.
* Yes, apparently he did.
* So his left hand didn’t know what his right hand was doing.
* This is getting to be a real crowded category for the Darwin Awards.
* See? This is what happens when you don’t heed our warnings here at the wacky news.
* If you’re going to take a selfie with a gun, at least point it, like, straight up.
* Imagine if he had been pointing it at the girlfriend. That would have been awkward.
* Where are the stories from the reverse side of this? You know? Where a bank robber says “Stick ’em up” and takes a picture instead?
* You think that’s a strange name? According to Wikipedia, Concrete, Washington was originally named Minnehaha.
* But after the other day, nobody’s laughing now.
