I don't know which is worse - that a father would dump his three year old son in a drop box, or that there's actually a drop box to dump unwanted babies off at in Japan.
The article on www.cnn.com says that parents are supposed to "seek outside help before dumping their offspring." Are you kidding me?!?!
Also, the father of the child is being urged to come forward and identify himself, and isn't going to get in trouble for what he did, since he didn't put his child in the immediate way of harm.
I say the dad should stay home and keep his mouth shut, then get beat up. That kid doesn't need to go back to a house where he gets discarded at a "no more baby" shelter. Blech.

The Real-Time Bad News Blues.
A guy walks into an office building.
Sits down. Says nothing.
When asked if he needs help, he replies, "I need to get my blood drawn."
When told that he's come to the wrong place, he asks to be pointed in the right place.
He's properly directed approximately three miles to the left.
Five minutes pass.
The guy returns.
Sits down. Says nothing.
When asked if he needs help, again, he replies, "I need to get my blood drawn," as though he'd never mentioned it before.
He reaches into his pocket.
The nearby women briefly contemplate - "Should we be hitting the floor?"
He stops reaching into his pocket.
Once more, he's told he's in the wrong place, and is pointed in the right direction.
He leaves, and continues to pace in front of the office building for several minutes thereafter, accomplishing nothing.
And that, my friend, is the bad news blues.

Because they were bullied.
What I want to know is, why is "I was bullied" always everybody's excuse for everything??
It seems to be everybody's (who's under the age of 25) motive for killing themselves or killing other people. We were all bullied! Unless we were the captain of the football team or a member of the cheerleading squad, we were bullied. And even then, we were freakin' bullied!
Some of us more than others, yes, I get that, but why is it always the excuse? It's the same thing as saying it's Marilyn Manson's fault that people are gothic and suicidal.
I think if you're going to end your own life, or end somebody else's life, you're going to do it for a bigger reason than being bullied. But apparently Stephanie Gestier and Jodie Gater didn't.

Funniest opener ever!
"A man charged with drunken driving on the way to a drunken driving hearing said he probably will have to quit drinking." Hahaha! Are you kidding me!?
This seventy-four year old man should have had his driver's license revoked after his first DUI, I'm thinkin'.
Hitting a car in the Arby's parking lot, only to flee the scene in quite the hurried manner, is the utter definition of bad news blues.
"They're going to force me to stop!" he says. Yes sir, they are. After all, you just got off house arrest!

Medication, anyone?
Renee Clark, 27, is one hell of a trouble maker. First, she axes her boyfriend's son from the planet by way of "scalding," and then, a year later, she fries her daughter's foot.
Somehow, she managed to burn her poor little girl with a curling iron...and how? I mean, it's not like a foot of any kind should be in the vicinity of a hairstyling device, right?
But more importantly, why is this guy still together with the woman who murdered his child?! I mean, the kid was so badly scalded that his skin actually managed to fall off. Yet, he still allows Clark to be around his other two children? Smarrrrrt guy. Real smart.

Well, at least they didn't die alone.
Two sixteen year olds decided to make a suicide pact...and keep it. Stephanie Gestier and Jodie Gater apparently offed themselves in a park, after telling their parents they were merely going shopping one morning.
The thing that boggles me is, why didn't they bother to leave a suicide note? Instead, all they did was leave a poorly punctuated goodbye to Jodie's boyfriend on her Myspace page's 'About Me' section. Ah, to be sixteen again.
Both girls were found hung from trees in a local park, swinging from nooses they'd made themselves. Their bodies had been hanging for days before they were discovered. And now, of course, there's a rumor going around that their interest in the Gothic community was what led to this tragic ending. Uh huh. Because Marilyn Manson is still at fault for everything everyone does, right?

DUNGEON RAPES?!?!
Are you kidding me? We're now raping women in dungeons?
Kenneth Hinson somehow got off in court for allegedly raping two women underground, and "appeared to cry" when the verdict was read. Come on, now. Did he cry, or did he just appear to cry? Because I'm thinking his cry was more of a celebratory, "Thank god I don't have to spend the next 20 years in jail" cry.
This "underground room" sounds quite sketchy. Apparently, it has no air. After all, he left the women there to die, under the impression that they'd croak from lack of air supply. Plus, it was full of pot. An airless pot haven, if you will. Hinson claimed the girls had consensual sex with him in exchange for said pot.
I say Hinson is full of shit.
