Stupidity 101

Hammocks and Catapults

This one, is a classic. It is one of the first things to happen to T and R.

And it was simply hilarious at the time..

First off, you should know that this began when T got this HUGE (and i mean fricken BIG....well, quite) hammock put up in her backyard.

Fun?

We definitely thought so.

Now, you should probably also know that we break practically anything we lay hands on (e.g. the work-out machines....but that's a story for another time).

So, T and R practically ATTACKED the poor thing...jumping on it, swinging, etc.

And then, we had the brilliant idea to set up a camera - please, don't ask us why, we honestly have no reasoning behind half the things we do... (so yes, we DO have footage of this...event)

After T sets up her camera, she walks over to the hammock, on which R was calmly swaying. And I guess our love for food decided to show us the side-effects of our close relationship with it, as T seemed to have gained, like, 50 pounds at that moment.

T sits down - well, practically JUMPS - onto the hammock....and with that, R is catapulted off.

Quickly.

With a lot of force.

Let me tell you, that was, like, THE MOST.......amazing experience in my life.

Well, not quite. But imagine flying off a hammock (ignore the whole face-plant-into-lawn consequence), yeah, fun, see?

So...after getting up - laughing our butts off - shaking off what had just occured - laughing our butts off - and wondering what in the world had just happened, oh, and laughing our butts off in the process - yes, we laugh a LOT - we decided that whatever, we'll just keep swinging on the hammock like nothing happened.

And we came up with this GENIUS PLAN for rocking the thing...you know, cuz us being short, and the hammock being insanely huge, we were just too lazy to..

It basically went like this:

One person, sits on one side (by width, not length) of the hammock, and the other on....the other :P

And then one person kinda leans towards the ground on their side, goes back up, and the other person does the same thing.

Simply brilliant, eh?

Turns out, no.

The first...several...times turned out fine. Then, we began speeding up.

Again, we have no idea WHAT T ate that day, but she seemed to have suddenly grown...fatter ;)

(ooh, shes gonna be irrkkkked at me for that ^ ;) omg...irk :O)

But uh, she uh, fell off.

LOL.

Yeah, I guess she leaned too far...or the hammock couldn't support her weight and kindly kicked her off...either way, she legit, fell off the thing.

And R, being on the other side, followed the rule of physics...or gravity...or...whatever..

And was catapulted off...again.

Yep, the video ended with the both of us lying on the ground, eating dirt...and grass...and laughing histerically...and clutching our tummies...

oh, and breaking the hammock.

Yep, we broke it.

I swear the thing was indestructable...but I guess there's only so much Spova one could take, eh? ;)
