BeeR Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Corollary to the "stupid to say" thread. Hopefully not a duplicate. I have on several occasions saluted enlisted guys (military thing for those who don't know). I hate BDUs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was that time when I was trying to knock down a leanto on our barn. Knocked one corner post out. Walked over to the other one, back swing, started coming forward and realized I was standing on the inside under the leanto... Thank god it was only 10 Ft. deep by about 20 wide.

westvirginia Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Called in a fire mission on the wrong mortar range. We set off a mortar simulator on independence day once. There were cops everywhere, and people thinking we were under attack. Once strung a dummy up on a piece of cable between two college dorms (opposite sides of a residential street) on halloween. We stuffed the dummy with old clothes and slid it down the cable as cars ran by. We'd done it the previous year w/o incident (meaning no one we scared was too upset), but this year the first damn car down the street was a detective. We didn't get to do it the next year.

untateve Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Thought I could climb up my oak tree and trim it myself with a chainsaw. My wife enjoyed laughing at me from my perch in the tree. Oak is heavy wood and an aluminum ladder really is no match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Irish Doggy Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Hiking in the snowy woods in January. I was about 13. Came across a frozen creek, and I wondered to myself, "I wonder how much weight that ice can hold?" Just as I heard the ice crack, I was kicking myself to the bottom. Thankfully, it was only about 18 inches deep, and home was 10 minutes away. Boy, were my feet cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteelBunz Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 While bartending, a big, full 1.5L bottle of wine slipped from my hand as I pulled it from the fridge. Instinctively, I stuck my foot under it so it wouldn't hit the tile floor and shatter. Good news.....the bottle didn't break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rajncajn Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 I used to work at a marine hardware store in high school, I was unloading a paint shipment and had 4 cases of copper bottom paint stacked up on the dolly. As I was cruising down the aisle I failed to notice the piece of chain link on the floor. I hit the chain & over went the dolly. Two cases of paint went flipping off and busted on the ground managing to knock open all but one of the 8 gallons of $135 paint. I thought i was fired, my boss laughed & told me to clean it up. Man I loved that job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
