I'm particularly amused by that story. Back in high school we once had some assignment wherein I commented that it "being run over by an airplane while walking down the street" would be a cool way to die (this is very much a true story).

Turns out I was right and this guy stole my thunder.

However, a note on PR:

Quote:

"I've got a lot of issues going on right now," Smith said. "I've got a plane that's all torn up. And I've got a young man that I killed."
When your statements contains that last sentence, it should probably at least precede the other sentence. Ideally the other sentence would be left out altogether.

Yeah, but if I was going to be taken unexpectedly and tragically at 38 (too late!), I would really appreciate not having even a moment's horror of my impending doom. I would rather be happy then gone, without an "oh sh ¡t, I'm about to die" moment.

Pot doesn't do that. I don't even think alcohol does that... although I'm not a big drinker. Did the guy have some mental health issues in the past?

He's claiming the pot was laced...and for once I might believe the guy. Like you said, pot and booze don't really explain that behavior.




On an entirely different note, "erectile dysfunction" is perfectly okay to say on tv, but "vagina" or even "down there" is verboten

I will give him a teeny tiny bit of credit for calling both 911 and a mental health line himself rather than trying to hide his crimes. But yes, he and his wife have no business raising children.

Maybe they'd have had better luck with the Oprah-approved "vajayjay"

How about:
"The magic spot"
"That thing we aren't allowed to mention"
"The place that stinks"

How odd. I heard penis plenty of times, I think Two & a Half Men for instance (but I may be mistaken). I think it's time to resurect the sexual revolution again!

Well at least that ad that was full of not-so-subtle visual examples of the shapes into which one might shave one's pubic hair made it through.

Maybe they should have said "I'm riding a horse" which is completely not sexual (though maybe not the best tagline for a tampon).
