I feel for the guy. He was just incredibly unlucky.
...
Or lucky. The blow could have been fatal.
Reverse for me. Georgia, Florida, Texas, Oklahoma—Army brat.
In Indiana now, which is somewhere in the middle.
Listened to an old tape a while back we sent the old man in Korea, and my sibs and I all sounded like the little girl in the Shake and Bake commercial: `We fried chicken and I hayulped.’
When speaking to an individual: y’ll. To a group: all a y’all.
Ladies: “Isn’t that nice?” = `Go eff yersef, Betty Sue.’
Stupid is as stupid does!
Stupid is as stupid does.
“bless your heart” is my favorite, can mean so many things.....
I blame Hollywood. They show unrealistic explosions and 99% of people have no accurate reference.
POUNDS of explosives?
I've seen a piece of metal the size of half a dime going several thousand feet per second that went through a humvee floor, through his boot, through his leg and blew the top of his thigh off and luckily missed his face cause he was just sitting leaning back and not leaning forward.
What did he think the force of the explosion was going to do with the metal that the mower was made of. He should of put the tannerite in a 20 lb bag of bolts and nails to get the right effect.
What a dumb#ss.
That would be a good response to: “Hey! Wanna play catch with a rattlesnake?”
No doubt. But the odds were against it even hitting him at all.
In my life, i've seen a lot of these amazing strokes of luck, both good and bad. I still find them weird.
One of my best navy buddies was an Aggie. His stories started off like that.
You need to put a disclaimer on that - someone is going to get a bright idea and try it out. Sure sounds like it would be a hoot - P.S. Don't try this at home.
Must have Hated that Lawnmower!
“Your ass is grass and I’m the lawnmower.”
Tannerite and a can of Charcoal lighter fluid is always a fan’s favorite.
I am just fine
My school has an `Aggieville’ where we went to drink Coors and added tomato juice for a `red beer’ breakfast.
If your school having, or ever had, the word `Agricultural’ in its title makes you an Aggie, Kansas Aggie myself:
Did you hear about the Cessna airplane that crashed in a cemetery in College Station recently?
Aggie search and rescue workers have recovered 300 bodies so far and are still digging.
Why did O.J. want move his trial to College Station?
In College Station, everyone has the same DNA.
What do Aggies think Cheerios are?
Donut seeds.
What was we talking about agin?
I’ve set off 2000 pounds of ANFO, buried underground, and I’ve set off 2 1/2 pounds of C4, carefully placed on a steel I-beam. The former moved a lot more material, but the latter was far more dangerous.
I just shared this story with Mrs Gamecock.
She wondered if it is wrong that she does’t feel sorry for the guy.
