The head on the fence is kinda cool, but I'm not sure I understand the artistic import of the "how to use a condom properly" line drawing.

Correction: The head on the fence is WAY cool.

(a friend (not slang, incidentally, I know a lot of people like him) and I were discussing last night that the head of Saddam Hussein needs to be carried around on the end of a bayonet attached to a rifle, since pikes are no longer used as implements of war.)

I saw this one, but I forget where... dude apparently decapitated himself - he jumped from some distance and didn't clear the fence.

That must have been some major distance ... it's VERY hard to decapitate oneself from a fall (even suicides from extremely high places land with all their parts attached ... fucked up, certainly, but attached). There had to be something else that the body hit on the way down, severing the head which ended up on the fence.

(you sure this isn't sequellae from a Jamaican drug war and the head's on the fence as a little warning?)

You know how this question may finally be resolved? This would make a GREAT episode of CSI, don't you think?

Yes, we're sure.

DAMN!

(but there were drugs involved. See I was right about that part! He was being trailed by narcotics officers ...)

(never occured to me to check snopes, and I'm usually the one who does.)

I go to snopes every day and read the What's New stuff. So I'm up on all that jazz.

Plus I've spent probably eighty hours just reading everything on the site, and then reading a lot of it again. I love it.

Anyway, I saw this and remembered it, but figured someone else would post it. When they didn't, I figured I would.

I'm quite sure that the man's last thoughts (if any) were along these lines:
WTF?!WTF?!WTF?!WTF?!WTF?!WTF?!WTF?!WTF?!WTF?!

I would guess that he didn't get much further than the first "WT" ...

or maybe not ... the brain can survive without oxygen for some time ...

I would, however, rather believe that it was pretty much an immediate lights out situation.
