You may have seen this out in Internetlandia, but, in honor of my four nephews (yes I feel sorry for my sister-in-law) who I just found out have tried to jump off their roof to see if a sheet was a good parachute (it wasn’t – go figure), I thought I’d share. Not all of these have been tried by my nephews, by the way, though I can’t imagine it will be long before they do…
- A king-size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2,000 sq.ft. house 4″ deep.
- If you spray dustbunnies with aerosol hairspray and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite.
- A 3-year old Boy’s voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.
- If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42-pound boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape.
- However, it is strong enough that, if tied to a paint can, it can get paint on all four walls of a 20’x20′ room.
- You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. However, when using a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit.
- A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.
The glass in windows (even double-paned) does not stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.- When you hear the toilet flush and then the words ‘uh oh’, it’s already too late.
- Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it.
- A six-year old boy can start a fire with flint even if a 36-year old man says they only do it in the movies.
- Certain Lego’s will pass through the digestive tract of a 4-year old boy.
- “Playdough” and “microwave” should not be used in the same sentence.
- Super-glue is forever.
- No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can’t walk on water.
- Pool filters do not like Jell-O.
- VCR’s do not eject PB&J sandwiches, no matter what you see on TV.
- Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.
- Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.
- You probably DO NOT want to know what that odor is.
Always look in the oven before you turn it on.- Plastic toys do not like ovens.
- Some plastic toys make a LOT of smoke.
- The Austin, TX fire department has a 5-minute response time.
- The washing machine spin cycle does not make earthworms dizzy.
- It will, however, make cats dizzy.
- Cats poop and pee twice their body weight when dizzy.
- Women will pass this list on to friends.
- Men will try mixing Clorox and brake fluid.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA
So scary, yet so true.
So sayeth the mother of 5– 2 boys, 2 girls, and 1 husband. And yes, I meant that exactly how it sounds.
They really never grow up, do they Bev?
My older brother is still teaching my nephews (his sons) the best way to rub a booger off on their siblings.
*laughing too hard to answer*
Oh my God, I remember that age… *grin*
All I can say is I’m happy I had one sister who wasn’t that creative instead of wild brothers.
Though the story about how my Uncle Gene (my mother is the youngest of 4, with brothers 8, 9 and 10 years older than her) lit the underside of the bed on fire is HILARIOUS.
#3~oh so true!!
#28 yep
#29 bwahahahahahahahahahaha very true!!
My sister sent me this one not too long ago. I have one boy and two girls, but my eldest daughter is such a tomboy. My son’s actually taken WD-40 and sprayed it into my mom’s furnace. If he hadn’t burned off his eyebrows and most of his harm hair, I’d have killed him! Oh, and as for #10, my husband asked “Really? Hmmm.”
Ha!
There’s something wrong with me… I immediately wanted to know about the Clorox and brake fluid. Have you looked it up on google? If you put it in quotes there are lots of results of guys trying it just because of this email. LOL!
Here’s a clip of some guys doing it.
