2023-10-04 at 11:02 AM UTC"A 40 year old banker dying from a heart while raping a toddler with cancer" to "a toddler dying from a rare form of cancer", where do you think darwin award recipients fall? Like in terms of "how sympathetic the circumstances surrounding one's death were"?

This was prompted by someone not giving a fuck and another person being all "that's a human life bro how can you be so callous", so I figured there'd be a range of opinions. I initially woulda said "closer to the babyrapist" but honestly it's a solid candidate for the exact mid-point on this spectrum. Like... you are dead because you were dumb, and dying is sad, but you couldn't help being dumb so you probably couldn't help dying in a spectacularly stupid fashion. But like... man, you probably could have helped it too? You have to be a *special* kind of dumb to qualify for a darwin award.
