Post true gross stories here!

No names here!

My wife used to work with a guy who said his son did this:

Seems this kid got some firecrackers a few years ago and you know how it goes...You put one in a can to see what happens, you bury it in the ground with just the wick sticking out, you know!

Well he decides to try a diffent experiment.
He decides to bury it a big pile of dog poo, just to see what would happen.

So he sticks it in and lights the fuse and runs a safe distance and waits....nothing happens.

Looks like it went out before it could explode. Now, the smart thing to do would be to figure it was a dud and try another one or just give up the experiment. But, you know, kids don't like to waste things that blow up.

So, he goes over to his "important experiment" and looks it over. It appears that the flame went out before it got to the firecracker itself. Cool, it's not a dud! No logic here! He decides he can still finish the job and lights what is left of the fuse.

Bad decision! Before he can even get a foot away, the firecracker explodes! This in turn cause the dog mess to fly everywhere including all over him! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Well, we already know he is not the sharpest tool in the shed. The boy goes home, finding no one there, he feels lucky. He goes to the bathroom, sheds his clothes, and cleans himself off. Then instead of rinsing off the clothes and putting them in the wash, he dumps the pile of them into the tub and goes back out to play.

Many hours later, Mom and Sis come home and find (and smell) a pile of crappy clothes in the tub.

Dad is left with the job of finding out what happened and then coming up with suitable punishment for the "dirty" deed (I think he got grounded and banned from using firecrackers!)

Dumb kid!
