It looks like it's probably for real. I regret being flippant about it in earlier posts. I feel so sorry for his mother having to find him like that. There's no way of knowing how he died right now, but I hope it was quick and painless. Really makes you think about mortality...
I may be donning the old tinfoil hat but the DUmmies have been complaining about the DUFU's and Freeper infiltration alot lately. Could this guy have cooked this up to put a damper on the DUFU's and get the Freepers to back off for awhile? Just a thought.
