Stupid way to die No. 1

I think I'll make this an ongoing feature on Army of Mom. Whenever I'm about to do something that makes me pause to think "hmm, what will the headline read if I die doing this?" then I usually step back and either don't embark on stupid move or I do so with caution.

This poor schmuck's cause of death: a lava lamp. He put it on the stove. Hello? If you've ever seen one of these up close, they get hot on their own. They don't need to be sitting on the stove. Poor dead dufus took a shard of glass to the heart and stumbled to the bedroom in his trailer and croaked.

I think we should ban lava lamps. Lava lamps kill. *please note my sarcasm* As one of my trolls accused me of having no grasp of sarcasm, I thought I better point it out when I use it.

    Unfortunately, some wrecking yards moved down the street from my childhood home while I was growing up. We had a couple of men in the neighborhood die under cars like that with nothing but their legs sticking out. Was pretty gross. I got to see one of them and I remember thinking to myself that he looked like the Wicked Witch of the West under there.

    Here's your sign.
