Xbox 360 +Water= Shocking results.....

Showing how our youth is getting dumber by the min:

"a 14 year-old North Carolina boy was almost killed trying to keep his Xbox 360 from overheating. According to local news, the boy's mother found her son unconscious after he attempted to submerge the console in a pan of water. "When I left to go next door he was playing a game but when I got back he was laying on his back on the floor and unconscious," she said. The console, wrapped in plastic and tape, was still plugged in. The kid has read online that he could keep his 360 from over heating by cooling its power supply. By the time the ambulance showed up, the boy had regained consciousness. Thankfully, when the ambulance arrived, the boy had regained his senses. He was rushed to a nearby hospital and suffered small burns on his hand and foot. Kids remember: No matter what the internet says, electricity and water are NOT friends. They're not even on speaking terms."

Yeah....I guess he was tryin to play bioshock....:lol:

i thought this had something to do with water effects in Bioshock.

Shocking..get it? BioSHOCK... eh? eh?

As technology advances, humanities' intelligence plummets like a shot down dive-bomber...

Agreed.

Apparently the average IQ of a human being is lowering.

reminded me of the classic book. ;)

:lol: i think it was this famous kid from system wars.. that dude tree-branchVACASCULIADAS

I hope that guy was dumb enough to say the 360 version of Bioshock looks better than the Pc version, yet he posted a 360 Bioshock video. :lol:

The amazing thing about this is people turn this into a bash on the 360. A kids stupidity somehow is a bash on the 360.

I just find it ironic that everything turns into a bash (such as this) when in fact it has nothing to do with the actual console itself. The kid was stupid, end of story. Heh, it's amazing how insecure some of you people are about your own consoles that you have to degrade other consoles to make yourselves feel better.

No. 360 is so much better, you don't have to be a genius to figure it out

this thread wins because of the pun alone.

good job.

"Thankfully, when the ambulance arrived, the boy had regained his senses."

I dont think he had any sense to begin with.

We obviously went on a tangent to what the thread starter had posted.

And no we did not miss the joke, as it wasn't meant to be a joke. It was just an article about a boy who got electrocuted trying to cool his Xbox. And people here have been pointing out his ignorant. That's all.

But, hey if you thought is was a joke. Whatever.

P.S. If that wasn't what you meant. You might want to phase your wording to be more clear.
