Jul 13 2009Idiot Moron Falls Into Manhole While Texting

Teenager Alexa Longueira fell into a manhole while texting and walking. And I think we can all agree: under no circumstances should she be granted a license.
She was walking along Victory Boulevard about to read a text message on her girlfriend's cell phone when the sidewalk was suddenly gone.
"Like, there was no warning about a big, open hole," she said.It was a big, open manhole.
Alexa tumbled six feet underground and landed in four inches of raw sewage.
Warning? You don't need a warning IT'S A GIANT HOLE. I bet at least six blind people avoided it that very same day. And what was the other thing? Oh yeah -- I hope Master Splinter and the gang whipped your ass while you were down there.

Aw, c'mon! We can't be held responsible for where we're walking. It is someone else's responsibility to make sure we don't fall into GIANT HOLES.

5. FDSY - July 13, 2009 4:21 PM
Oh
she sounds like a dumbass: "Like, their was no warning..." like? What a dumbass.
Of course... the whole falling into a manhole... that was also stupid.
6. jigga - July 13, 2009 4:21 PM
LOL. She needs FAIL tattooed on her forehead just like that chick with 60 stars on her face.
7. Dishy Dishyington - July 13, 2009 4:21 PM
I think I'll stay away from "man" holes, since they're brimming with raw sewage.
And why do they call it "raw" anyway?
8. tobyraider - July 13, 2009 4:22 PM
@3
LOL...
I wonder if she gave her 'girlfriends' shat covered cell back to here... Uhhh... Sorry about that, but the good news is that it farts when you set it to vibrate.....
9. LSDiesel - July 13, 2009 4:22 PM
She can fall into my manhole all night long.
er....wait...
10. tobyraider - July 13, 2009 4:26 PM
Too bad that lip ring didn't rip her face open... Stupid see you next tuesday..
11. tobyraider - July 13, 2009 4:29 PM
here=her

I suppose when they told her the news wanted to do a story and include her in an interview, she pulled out the most skanky white trash outfit she could find. Nothing like a sweatshirt 3 sizes too small and sweatpants.
13. Daniel - July 13, 2009 4:39 PM
I heard a sound clip of her mom saying they were going to sue the city for it... Just rediculous
14. DanStack - July 13, 2009 4:43 PM
hahaha I saw that on the news where I live. She looked like the kind of person that deserved it.
15. LSDiesel - July 13, 2009 4:45 PM
3 years from now, she will have a scat fetish, and we got to witness the beginning of a lifetime of chest sh*tting
16. catch22 - July 13, 2009 4:48 PM
i wonder if her friend laughed... i woulda
i wonder if her mom was making cash register noises in her head while she was shit civered telling the story
if she gets money for this she should have exactly that much in damage done to their home and belongings
17. Freddy K - July 13, 2009 4:57 PM

18. Anon - July 13, 2009 5:02 PM
From like, how she speaks I'm guessing this is like, a first for her.
Falling into a 'manhole' as opposed to men falling head first into her 'womanhole'
19. STOMPY - July 13, 2009 5:06 PM
Okay, time for me to get ripped into like my mom on a saturday night...
I think if the open manhole didn't have any warning signs stating that there is a something ahead out of the ordinary that could kill you, the people who removed the manhole are responsible for compensantory and punitive damamges...
20. Pew³ - July 13, 2009 5:14 PM
I know how hard it is to pay attention while texting.
I actully post things on Geekologie from my phone and do it while I'm walking around.
As a matter of fact, I'm walking and posti

phhhhttttahahahahahahaaa!!!!
22. Huh - July 13, 2009 7:44 PM
I saw this story on the news the other night (was it yesterday?), and she actually has more clothes on this time! She's still showing her stomach and all, but she's much more covered up than she was before.
In any case, yes, I do think that the people who left the manhole open without any cones or anything should take part of the blame (though not much, because I think that even with a cone or warning, she would've been too caught up with her texting and fallen in). On the other hand, this girl is a complete idiot. Look where you're going when you walk.
23. Sexy Cyclist - July 13, 2009 7:46 PM
Hey, does this mean we can dump all teenagers who walk around texting into vats of raw sewage? Can we please? PLEASE?
And then we can dump parents who name their vapid daughters "Alexa" in along w/ 'em.
24. Nice. - July 13, 2009 7:46 PM
@#7
It's raw sewage because it hasn't been processed, so basically it's still full of shit.
25. sage james spirtos - July 13, 2009 8:06 PM
And the funny thing is that you know there wasn't a lesson learned here. You know that this girl is going to just fall into another manhole sooner or later... what a dumbass!
26. mantle - July 13, 2009 8:35 PM
Shes suing the city, thats even worse
27. led display - July 13, 2009 9:55 PM

@24, thanks
Alexa's lucky in one way. Some manholes are a lot deeper than 6 feet.
And I thought I heard once that the NYC sewers were full of alligators. And flocks of soiled budgies.
31. sin - July 14, 2009 2:32 AM
Did you see her mother?!? WTF was that? A female Freddie mercury? I see why the mom is so skinny, with an overbite like that she can't eat right.
As for the girl...Well.... She is an idiot just like her mom. A piercing just below her lip, Barely wearing clothes and what she does wear doesn't fit.
What a loser family. The girl is a complete idiot regardless of the cover being off. You are supposed to watch where you are going.
The bad part is these losers will probably get a settlement from the city.
More piercings, tats and stupidity to follow.
32. Flashpoint - July 14, 2009 6:16 AM
Damn... only a 6 foot drop and 4 inches of crap below.... a bit more of either and we'd of had another Darwin Award Nominee no doubt....
And I'm with huh (#22), even if they'd of had cones she'd of never seen them... makes me laugh all the more when the stupid brat said that there 'was no warning'... I'm pretty sure anyone else would have taken SEEING the big-ass hole on the sidewalk as a warning in itself...
33. RONIN - July 14, 2009 7:34 AM
Guess she'll sue the city now cause she cant keep her eyes open.
34. Jaded Icon - July 14, 2009 8:40 AM
You know that saying about chewing gum and walking at the same time..........yeah.
35. seraph - July 14, 2009 11:14 AM
how the hell cant someone see that while texting? Unless shes holding the phone up into the sky, she had to have been looking down.
Dumbass idiot
36. bob - July 14, 2009 2:43 PM
i wouldn't mind falling down her (wo)manhole.
37. geekrawker - July 14, 2009 4:59 PM
This girl was a ignoramus! I read on a news site that her parents are trying to sue the city, don't think thats going to fly. Maybe try to sue the phone company for the texting service in general? Idiots, and then to make it public! It doesn't make the whole family look stupid or anything. I think i'll subpoena the city for my knee injury when i hit a rock while rollerblading. Oh, did i just say rollerblading, thats soo passé... i meat shredding up the curb on my skate board.....
38. Amazed - July 17, 2009 12:21 PM
I would never hire this chick: 1) she can't multi-task 2) she can't pay attention (even to BIG details like a manhole) 3) she would never take responsibility for her own actions and 4) if she ever screwed up, her mother would sue.

On the way back to work today, I passed a man who was texting while riding a bicycle - and weaving like a drunked madman... made me think of this.

That's terrible. But hilarious. I should warn my sister.
