A student at West Virginia University apparently hanged himself by accident in his dorm room while doing an activity known as the "choking game."

Having these side-by-side is kind of tasteless.

Sometimes I'm convinced the human race is doomed. What a stupid, pointless waste of life.

I agree, although death seems like quite a severe penalty for a stupid mistake.

Just to clarify--I don't mean that HE was a stupid, pointless waste of life; that was referring to his death. I said the human race was doomed because people do such stupid things. I don't think he *deserved* to die, although as a college student he probably should have known better than to choke himself for a cheap thrill. I mean, that's what beer is for.
