Had to post this found it completely Ironic.The owner of Segway you know the green personal transportation. Apparently he drove off a 30 foot cliff killing himself.
Anyone ever ride one of these? I just find them to look funny I am sure they are fun to ride on. I myself would never buy one at least in my current financial situation.

Edit:The man bought Segway not invented the thing. And apparently a nice guy. I still am also going to hell.

I've ridden on one. It's a complete mindfuck the first time you try to control it.
Also looks like this rich dude was a good guy - kinda sad but funny. He wasn't really "segway man" though, considering he didnt invent them - he just bought the company a year ago
|
that's incredibly funny i think i'm going to hell now haha
althought i feel kinda bad after i read his wikipedia page, guy seemed to be pretty good
|
I thought Dean Kamen died, and I was going to have a heart attack.
|
|
He seemed like a good man..
|
It's pretty fucking sad. The man works hard to get a multimillion company, donates 20 m to charity, then ends up being laughed at by people on the internet.
|
Is this thread going to segue into bad puns as usual?

Check out George Carlin on what can and is funny then come back.
I am not trying to pick on him or make his death less tragic, it was tragic, He seemed like an amazing guy. I guess its just too soon?

If I hear one more bad pun I'm going to lose control!

I couldn't stop laughing when I heard this on the TV.

But it just slipped.

Fuck yes, what a way to go.
Such a BAWLER, definitely my choice of suicide when I intend to.

Wow that has got to be bad for business...
Segway's are already a pretty big joke as is. And the Brits are all about sarcasm and irony in their humor aren't they? I bet the late-night shows are gonna have a great time with this.

You guys want a pun war?
Looks like he got to the end of the road =\

He had it coming for making mall cops even bigger douches.

I listened to him speak [I was a WPI student] several times. The man is downright brilliant.
I don't really know anything about this guy. Sad story. Tasteless jokes are tasteless.
