The Darwin Award is a prestigious award given to people who prevent their genes continuing in the gene pool by the most stupid actions possible.
The Darwin Award is often nominated to incautious DIYers who either die at the hands of their own stupidity, or do such extensive damage to their reproductive systems that all risk of passing on their idiot genes is eliminated. The man with the framing nailer springs to mind. The award also gives rise to the alternative meaning of DIY which is "Don't Injure Yourself".
If you have been nominated for a prestigious Darwin Award, consider yourself honoured to be chosen, and consider the rest of the world fortunate that your genes will never ever be passed on to another generation.
