Reports from Canada have claimed that international EDM star Deadmau5 has been found dead in his home after a game of Mousetrap that went horribly wrong.
At around 9pm last night, friends began to gather in the home of the infamous dance rodent. Witnesses describe seeing Kat Von D, Felix Da Housecat and the lads from 2 Bad Mice arriving, with initial reports indicating that each had suspicious packages under their arms, which were initially thought to be records or boxes of drugs but turned out to be something far more dangerous, board games.
The “fun” started around ten with quiet drinks and an innocent game of Buckaroo, but things took a turn for the worst when Mousetrap was produced. So far, police reports are not clear as to which person brought the fatally ironic game with them.
Felix Da Housecat claims to have brought Monopoly, Kat Von D claims to have brought Battleship and 2 Bad Mice claim to have brought Buckaroo. However, each of these has been discounted by the others who were present.
“Felix and Deadmau5 were really getting competitive,” claims Rob Playford of 2 Bad Mice. “I suppose it could be described as a real game of HouseCat and Mau5, if you were so inclined. Which I am.”
He continued, “I was pretty drunk, but I remember seeing a plastic boot take a swing at Deadmau5 out of nowhere. When I turned to the others to tell them, I saw a diver taking a spill out of the corner of my eye. Suddenly there was a bath shaking violently. Then the trap dropped, catching DeadMau5 inside. It all happened so fast. And it was all so ridiculous. I’m still trying to make sense of it all.”
It would seem the night ended like a game of Cluedo, with each person present entirely sure that another member present had been responsible for the terrible and childishly scripted accident.
Wunderground would like to issue a safety warning to anyone reading this – be careful of activities that have the potential to cause you ironic harm based upon your name. We urge Carl Cox to consider some protection, we implore William Orbit to stay grounded and we recommend Dash Berlin slows down on the Autobahn. And of course, we urge Knife Party to be careful in everything they do.
I generally like your jokes, but many people misunderstand your headlines. This one is not that funny if his friends and family don’t get it’s a joke.
Really?
apparently we now have to allow for abject stupidity so as not to offend people. Jayysus.
