Today’s Male Cringe Moment

A man attempting to commit an armed robbery had what can only be described as a really, really bad day. He walked into the store, demanding money and a pack of cigarettes. That's when things started going south. Rapidly.

The clerk put the cash in a bag and as she turned to get the cigarettes, she heard the gun discharge.

Police say surveillance video shows the man shooting himself as he placed the gun in the waistband of his pants. The clerk wasn't injured.

A short time later, police found Derrick Kosch, 25, at a home with a gunshot wound to his right testicle and lower left leg. He was expected to have surgery at a hospital.

Erm, where else would he have surgery? Police are planning to charge him with armed robbery. I suppose a littering charge would be a bit too much.

    I actually know of a case where one of these idiots managed to shoot himslef twice in the same circumstance. He stuck the gun in his waistband and shot himself in the testicle (I don’t remember which one) and the thigh. When he did so, he flinched and the gun, which he still had a firm grip on, went off again shooting him in the other thigh.

    That robber needs holster lessons, bad.

    His “equipment” is shot, I’m afraid.
