Close shave

I can't begin to calculate how much fail that article is full of.

What's a level above Epic Failure?

I think this is the definition of 'epic' and might lead to downgrading of some previous events.

I heard about this on the radio this morning. A local station runs a segment that they call, "Dumb A$$ of the Day", and this story was today's. Hilarious on so many levels!

Sorry, I don't buy the story.

The ex-husband holds the steering wheel for her so she can shave her crotch? He does this so she can look good for her boyfriend? Then he switches places with her to take the blame for the accident? If she's going to see her boyfriend why is he even in the car?

Sounds like something made up in a panic to cover for something more sensible but less legal.

Yeah, that sounds really weird, I mean on top of this whole thing being really weird, the explanation is even weirder... Unless, we underestimate stupidity? Perhaps people can be THAT stupid? Who knows, maybe this was a triangle thing or something?

I think SHE was pimpin HIM out, she may have been shaving one but it also seems as if he too has a vagina. Was it confirmed that said 'bikini area' in question was actually HER bikini area?
