This is an old story but, it was late and I stumbled across our old friend Tex Grebner.  By now, we’ve all seen the original video but, just in case you didn’t…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYvAxLX6OzE.  Most of us know how much of an assclown Tex was but, in an effort to prove himself a bottomless pit of stupid, he agreed to appear with non-other than lefty “comedian” Daniel Tosh on the “Tosh.0” blog.  Just a warning, I did say Tosh is a lefty so don’t be surprised to hear him say the US Constitution is irrelevant and that if you believe in or support the 2nd Amendment that you’re an idiot.

Among other revelations in this video, we learn that poor old Tex aspires to be a law enforcement officer when he grows up and thus far, has existed about as far from Texas and a free state as he could get.  He’s not from New York but, he is from Illinois and that’s close enough to this native Texas.  His whole persona is made up BS of the highest order as indicated by his statement in the original video, “My training took over” followed by saying he immediately called mommy and daddy to tell them he’d shot himself.  Highly trained gunmen don’t immediately call mommy and daddy to tell them of the mess they’ve made.

Having said all this, I’ll give old Tex just a little credit.  He did own the fact he shot himself.  He didn’t blame anyone else and didn’t claim that the gun just went off.  He fully admitted to curling his booger-hook onto the bang-switch to strum a round into his thigh. It’s been a year since he launched himself into infamy and he’s still making videos though none has been views quite as much as the one that made him famous or infamous for being a dumbass in a no-dumbass zone.  The lesson we should all take away from this is that familiarity breeds complacency that can bite us at the worst possible moment.  So do us all a favor…Don’t be THAT guy.
