"Of" can be used to describe the relationship between two close things, one thing being kind of an explanatory element. And gerund is frequently used. For example: The idea of getting into the cave unnerved me. The test of enduring heat as long as I can resulted in some major burns. But if I apply this principle to certain sentences.... The irresponsibility of leaving the trash behind angered his boss. The thoughtlessness of running into a ghost house resulted in his death. This sounds stretched and kind of unnatural... But I'm not a native speaker, so I thought it better to ask you guys. Are they grammatically wrong? And if yes, why is that?
