Ah, I see the screw-up fairy has visited us again!

Okay, so as part of my morning ritual I get on the net and check out what's going on in our wonderful world. I troll the likes of CNN and MSNBC looking for anything even remotely relevant. Relevant to what I have no idea.
Anyhow, I just want to take this opportunity to ask WHAT THE FUCK?
What in the hell are some people thinking? Case in point:

- A dispute over clothes and a video game system between a young woman and a squatter in her grandparents' house apparently sparked the vicious beating and stabbing murders of six people whose bodies were found late last week in a blood-spattered home, police said.

Ok! So six people were viciously murdered over a god damn X-Box? Apparently soome of the victims were so badly beaten that dental records were useless to identify them.

How about this one:

- A love-struck young man threw himself off his balcony Monday, two days after a quarrel prompted his girlfriend -- a member of Greece's Olympic judo team -- to jump from the same spot.

Wait, it gets better :

-Giorgos Chrisostomides, 24, was on life-support at an Athens hospital with injuries to his head and back. His high-school sweetheart, 20-year-old judo champion Eleni Ioannou, was at another hospital in critical condition with multiple fractures to her head and body. "It started about who would play solitaire on the computer."

So this guy jumps off a balcony after his girlfriend decides that if she can't play solitaire she better take her own life. Sounds like these two were a few nuts short of a brownie.

People just blow me away.
Maybe my life isn't really all that bad.
