This is also a term used most commonly in regards to people doing dumb shit. Like for example 2 guys walking down the street and one decides he wants to play chicken with a car because he is an idiot. If he gets hit by the car and dies natural selection has taken its course. Another example is say there is a guy that instead of getting a job and taking care of his shit, decides he’s just going to kick in people’s doors and rob them to make money. One day he kicks in the wrong door and is met with a shotgun blast to the chest. He was stupid enough to not consider the consequences in his actions, or chose to ignore them, therefore he is met with natural selection. Play stupid games win stupid prizes.
