Dumb Ways to Die Pledge

It's December and it's mistletoes and glitter dust for me. I can forget about my day job alright. This morning, I am to welcome December with you with morbid, but cutesy thoughts in my head.

I was watching YouTube videos because I can. (Yeeeeahhhh! We switched to Globe DSL. So hello, faster internet connection!) Then, I this video thumbnail caught my attention. Thanks to the colorful half-sausages characters. The video is called Dumb Ways to Die. You would probably scratch your head why I have associated the word 'cutesy' with death. Well, watch the video for yourself.

Here's the lyrics, babe.

Dumb Ways to Die

Set fire to your hair

Poke a stick at a grizzly bear

Eat medicine that's out of date

Use your private parts as piranha bait

Dumb ways to die

So many dumb ways to die

Dumb ways to die-ie-ie 

So many dumb ways to die

Get your toast out with a fork

Do your own electrical work

Teach yourself how to fly

Eat a two week old unrefrigerated pie

Dumb ways to die

So many dumb ways to die

Dumb ways to die-ie-ie 

So many dumb ways to die

Invite a psycho-killer inside

Scratch a drug dealer's brand new ride

Take your helmet off in outer space

Use your clothes dryer as a hiding place

Dumb ways to die

So many dumb ways to die

Dumb ways to die-ie-ie

So many dumb ways to die

Keep a rattlesnake as a pet

Sell both your kidneys on the internet

Eat a tube of superglue

"I wonder what's this red button do?"

Dumb ways to die

So many dumb ways to die 

Dumb ways to di-ie-ie-ie 

So many dumb ways to die

Dress up like a moose during hunting season

Disturb a nest of wasps for no good reason

Stand on the edge of a train station platform

Drive around the boom gates at a level crossing

Run across the tracks between the platforms

They may not rhyme but they're quite possibly

The dumbest ways to die

The dumbest ways to die

The dumbest ways to die-ie-ie-ie

So many dumb

So many dumb ways to die

The video's message, apparently is to be safe around trains. The message is brought to you by (c) Metro Trains. Well, this reminds me of the book I bought early this year, The Darwin Awards Next Evolution. The book compiles the funny/stupid/morbid death of errr, unfortunate people. You should read it so that you wouldn't belong into the gene pool of these people.

I swear to get the plug of the white Christmas lights that surround my bed before going to bed. Just in case. How about you? What is your Dumb-way-to-die pledge? Be safe, guys!
