Whats the darwin award?

The Darwin Awards salute the improvement of the human genome by honoring those who accidentally remove themselves from it. In short, the people at the Darwin Awards group, collect stories of idiots who they believe don't deserve to breed and pass on their genes. For example: The following mind-boggling attempt at a crime spree appeared to be the robber's first, due to his lack of a previous record of violence, and his terminally stupid choices: 1. His target was H&J Leather & Firearms. A gun shop. 2. The shop was full of customers - firearms customers. 3. To enter the shop, the robber had to step around a marked police patrol car parked at the front door. 4. A uniformed officer was standing at the counter, having coffee before work. Upon seeing the officer, the would-be robber announced a holdup, and fired a few wild shots. The officer and a clerk promptly returned fire, covered by several customers who also drew their guns, thereby removing the confused criminal from the gene pool. No one else was hurt.

Darwins theory of evolution is the idea behind the Darwin award. Darwin was a believer in survival o0f the fittest. Basically if something or someone is made to adapt they will either adapt or die. The Darwin award is given to those who benefit the evolution of man kind by removing themselves from the gene pool generally or just doing something incredibly stupid.
