"Maybe I'm becoming an old fogey, but crap like that doesn't amuse me anymore."

I'm with you. Stuff like this has never amused me, since I was brought up to put myself in the other person's shoes before I did anything stupid. Would I want that done to me? And, how would I feel if it did happen to me. Sometimes I curse my parents for instilling a conscience in me. There's been plenty of times I would have loved to do malicious things, but I could never bring myself to do them.

No kidding... There was a Ted Nugent concert here in KC many years ago, where someone threw a big ball bearing or pinball machine ball at Ted, and broke his tooth.

What the heck is going through these peoples' heads when they do that sort of thing?
