O’Doyle rules you fuckin humphack

I entreat you to watch this entire thing.

Do you think when those guys who invented YouTube went live with their creation they felt fear? Like the kind of fear that Oppenheimer felt when he saw the first Atomic Bomb test, and is famously quoted as saying “I am become death itself…” They launched a platform for self-expression and then realized, suddenly and horribly, the awful truth that they had just unleashed upon the world: People are totally weird as hell when they are alone.

Can I get a ruling on whether or not to file this under Elevator to Hell?

So you’re in Texas. Not much happens there. Ted Nugent shoots stuff. Your public schools kinda suck (#32 in the country). If you hold a public office you have to acknowledge the existence of a supreme being (I’m not kidding). You can legally sell one eye (still not kidding). You can be charged a felony for promoting the use of and/or owning more than six dildos (why would I even make this up I’m not fucking kidding). My point is – the place is pretty boring. So you’re stuck in oil land, strapped for cash, what do you do?  Well apparently you surf local news outlets hoping you have a photo of a recent story.  Why get a job when you can hope you’ve taken a newsworthy photo that NBCDFW will want to buy?  When hail storms hit Northern Texas, NBCDFW put the word out they were looking for photos of said globes of ice.  Some asshole actually sent this in.

Here’s what the network had to say:

We just want you to know, we check photos and videos sent in to NBCDFW before they are published or broadcast.  When storms hit North Texas, we can always count on NBCDFW viewers to send in photos that tell the story.

On Wednesday afternoon, when hail fell on Forney, photos came in showing hail nearly the size of a golf ball.  As photos came in to isee@nbcdfw.com, one photo caught our attention. The photo, from “Tyler,” clearly shows ice cubes from a refrigerator.  We especially liked the scattering of ice cubes on the ground. Nice touch!  We have e-mailed the sender for comment on his “hail” photo but have not yet heard back.

So as a note to all NBCDFW faithful: We check the photos before we air them on NBC 5 or publish them in a photo gallery on NBCDFW.com.
