How do you spell overreaction?

I especially like how the final line of the article refers to it as a "deadly incident."

I'd do laundry more often if one of those showed up in my dryer...

He climbed out of there pretty admirably, for a dead guy.

you have GOT to be kidding me. I take more exception to the writer calling it a 'deadly incident', especially considering ....and correct me if Im wrong...NO ONE F-ING DIED! than I ever could a few firefighters filling a bored moment.

(Ive done the dryer thing btw)

While the machine could have malfuctioned, I think the real threat here are the kids who may emulate firemen and try this themselves.

But yes, I'd say overraction is a good word for it. Take action if you must, but a week off without pay sounds more fitting to the crime.

If the boss people hadn't overreacted this video would never have even been seen by kids who might emulate them.

Besides, what well-adjusted child hasn't at least given serious thought to taking a ride in the dryer?

We refered to it as "Astonaut Training" - why kid didn't want to grow up to be an astronaut?

To make sure it was safe we gave the cat a ride first. Apparently I have always been a fan of animal testing.

The cat survived, as did everybody else.
