Why Johnny Knoxville gets all the ladies....What have you done, while trying to 'get some'?

Why do humans and animals alike do such dumb stuff? Stuff that is unnecessary, flamboyant, and often downright deadly?

I tried doing "the running man" at a dance club. Nope, it didn't work at all. (context: it was 1990, Hammer was just coming on the scene, and I was drunk.)

speaking of johnny knoxville...was jackass cancelled from MTV? what happened to that show? every time MTV puts on a cool show it's time changes 5 times so you can't find it and then it disappears.

I've listened to country music. Yes, I am ashamed. On reflection, I should have stayed at home with lotion and two channels of scrambled porn, but alas, I was young and foolish.

Thanks for the link, hellinskira. I've never read anything by Conniff before, but think I will go hunt down more articles. Very fluid "take me someplace" kind of writing.

Jackass wasn't cancelled. It was ended by Knoxville and company.

I believe Knoxville is married, so I imagine he doesn't get the ladies. Bam on the other hand..

Did anyone else go here to find out more about Jackass? Not exactly what I was expecting.

Yeah, what the hell is that all about? Jackass = Religious nut, I can see, but still....

Somebody needs a Tivo for Christmas...

Jackass was on this past Sunday, BTW.
