I used to love it when ABC's Wide World of Sports showed the cliff drivers.

gorgor		2009-04-23 03:42:33 PM

Entomologists bug me.

This is what he looked like after he hit the Mortar And Pestle below.

rocinante721		2009-04-23 03:48:52 PM

Mmmmmm ...

Even I can work in 'bug' and 'dip' into your existing headline, Subby.

SilentStrider		2009-04-23 04:12:40 PM

I lol'd.

Guacamole? That's Mexican Spanish, from Nahuatl āhuacamōlli, from āhuacatl avocado + mōlli sauce. Date: 1920...

BKITU		2009-04-23 04:40:11 PM

Did he roll onto his back with his arms and legs crossed?

/apologies to Gary Larson

rocinante721: Mmmmmm ...

That's exactly what I thought of first, too!

I sound fat.

nirwana		2009-04-23 05:16:12 PM

I guess that old saying about avocado groves is true.

So wrong and yet, so right. Now I'll carry that cartoon image with me until I get home and look it up in The Complete Far Side. There goes my exciting Thursday night.

mikkimouse		2009-04-23 05:17:35 PM

+1, subby. I giggled muchly.

vernonFL		2009-04-23 05:17:51 PM

That was more of an ATV accident than an avocado accident.

airsupport		2009-04-23 05:18:31 PM

6.023 X 10^23 avocados = one guaca mole

airsupport		2009-04-23 05:19:26 PM

airsupport: 6.023 X 10^23 avocados = one guaca mole

Also knowns as avocadro's number.

Somebody please PS this:

StickyKleenexWad		2009-04-23 05:20:43 PM

If there is a 120 foot cliff nearby, you might want to be aware of that whilst riding around on an ATV.

It must refer to the submitter. Any accident is a source of mirth for retarded people. Surprised that no one has invoked Darwin yet.

Do a barrel roll!

unicornrider		2009-04-23 05:23:25 PM

I hate Guacamole - looks like, well, ya know, the stuff from The Exorcist....

DaBishop		2009-04-23 05:25:22 PM

Look out, Bill!

ScottMpls		2009-04-23 05:25:29 PM

Go away kid, you bug me.

Guacamole and a piece of cake? Not at the same time! (big mistake)

*crickets*

This headline would be funnier if a priest had died instead.

the-meter-man		2009-04-23 05:45:23 PM

Ironically, this happened in a little town called Fallbrook.

the-meter-man		2009-04-23 05:46:01 PM

Or is that coincidentally? I can never tell.

SwiftFox		2009-04-23 05:47:46 PM

Fryer said the man was trying to turn the ATV while placing the traps when it rolled and he was ejected. He fell about 120 feet to his death.

Never try to drive an ATV while climbing an avocado tree to place bug traps.

I can tell you from experience that Fallbrook sucks.

I grew up in El Cajon and every time I drove by Fallbrook on the 15 I wanted to run through those hills of avocados. Good thing I didn't...

BuckinKaeding		2009-04-23 05:55:42 PM

He fell 120 feet to his death, eh?

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...
*breathes*

Gawdzila		2009-04-23 06:01:44 PM

Mmmmm.

I like my guacamole simple.
Just avo, cilantro, a little salt, and plenty of lemon juice.
Delicious!!

oldebayer		2009-04-23 06:04:05 PM

Reminds me of one of my favorite movie titles: Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death.

Ow My Balls		2009-04-23 06:09:07 PM

adamacious: inappropriate use of the dumbass tag

Agreed. 'Dumbass' seems a little harsh.

So the story leaves out the man's name, pending family notification. Because so many entomologists were setting bug traps in San Diego yesterday.

navyjeff		2009-04-23 06:24:45 PM

Good, good...

MarkMartinFan		2009-04-23 06:29:22 PM

As a youth, I hunted squirrels in those orchards for many years.

/squirrels fattened up with avocados

Such is life. He had a nommy death.

Poor Gorgor. It's like they've cut off your arms and legs, but you're still gamely soldiering on. Such determination is admirable.

It's a pity my computer can't resolve tinyurls. I can only see your stuff when I'm at work

I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords.
