HEY MAN, NICE SHOT

The song "Hey Man, Nice Shot" appears in all sorts of trailers for movies because it's a pretty goddamn kickin' song.

Though, unless you've actually listened to the lyrics you'd of never have thought it was about some fella blowing his head off because he felt he was backed into a corner really bad.

He was Treasurer of Pennsylvania, and his ass got convicted of receiving kickbacks. He didn't take the plea bargain offered and was looking at 55 years of prison time and an ungodly fine.

After a heartfelt speech he started handing out envelopes to some dudes.

He proceeded to pull a giant revolver out of an envelope as newspeople and children at home on their snow day and their parents watched him blow his brains out on live television.

But you'd never have guessed this only after hearing bits and pieces of it in the Iron Man trailer.

Any songs you've listened to that have big ol' stories behind em?

    I thought this post was going to suck.

    And then I saw "children," "live tv" and "blow his brains out"

    "So I say 'hey man, nice shot" didn't do it for you?

    Though to be fair there are always songs like that.

    Aside from its use in the aforementioned Iron Man trailer it was also tastelessly used in a Powerade or Gatorade commercial.

    dead things never really phased me

    things dying, though, still gets me a little squeamish.

    classic videos, like people being hit by .50 cal bullets not so much; but ones like the video where a dude hit by a bomb blast is lying down in a pool of his own blood, vomiting up on himself as soldiers surrounding him try to reach into his pockets for some form of ID and he tries to push their hands away. that one got to me.

    I think what gets me about the AEAs is that, if they were alive,they would have done ANYTHING in the world to make sure they don't get discovered like that

    like if someone came up to them an hour before their death and told them they were going to die from strangling themselves while masturbating and wearing one of their mom's dresses, hanging from a TOWEL tied around their necks hung from a door frame, legs not even off the ground, they've shit and pissed themselves and there are porno mags EVERYWHERE

    if someone had told them that, and that they could avoid it by going out right them and murdering 10 children.

    People would murder those kids

    it's a hard way for a body to be found.

    From what I hear a lot of 'suicides' are actually auto-asphyxiation deaths but the parents discovered the kid surrounded by porn and cleaned it up quickly.

    No one wants to answer "I'm so sorry about your child, how did he die?"

    with

    "He was trying to achieve a massive orgasm by jerking off while strangling himself."

    we had a few videos in my time, too

    apparently this is bad to read, Not safe for soul
    It's pretty bad to see a dude crawling across a field after a landmine exploded, his stomach's been torn open and his legs have been mangled and destroyed. Every pull he makes, his intestines fall out a little more. His face is completely ruined, he can't see, he's just crawling and hoping to fuck that there's someone to save him, he doesn't even know he's killing himself. He's crawling across the field and he's screaming for his mother. The worst, most barbaric and primal scream for any sort of comforting figure to save him.




    I think that day we were talking about land mine bans

    One kid died by 'accidentally strangling himself in his sleep with his numchuks.' It was really awkward because everyone at work was talking about it and giving their condolences to the woman that knew his mother and stuff and I knew damn well the story was a crock of shit.

    "He just insisted on going to bed with them and then one night he accidentally got it stuck around his neck."
