Star Wars Kid
You've probably all seen the video that leaked onto the 'Net of the "Star Wars kid" pretending to light saber fight in front of a camera. jish.nu interviewed the guy and is accepting donations. They've raised over $3700 so far for the guy. Incredible. Update May 21 6:48PM: The final tally. Update May 21 10:20PM: Why? Because he was publicly humiliated on a massive scale and people feel sorry for and/or can relate to him. The video has been downloaded over a million times .... yikes.
