"We were hiking..."

We were hiking, and came across someone in a lowered sporty car, stuck in the mud out in the middle of nowhere. We started helping them try to dig their car out of the mud, only to have a truck (friend of driver) show up and immediately get stuck as well. Car owner called for more backup (bigger trucks) and they all proceed to show up, one by one, and get stuck in the mud. One of the trucks caught on fire (driver absentmindedly set down a high powered, heated flashlight on his center console). Truck driver got so mad his nose started bleeding, and wanted to kill the original car driver stuck in the mud. It was like one of those comedy movies where everything went wrong.

"My husband..."

My husband is a bit of an active sleeper. He has done all sorts of things in his sleep: eat, make coffee, check the mail, move furniture. I wish we had a camera in our house to capture the night we fell asleep in the living room and he picked me up and carried me to bed. I woke up along the way (he wasn't super gentle) and he dropped me on the edge of the bed. I bounced right off.

"Probably the time..."

Probably the time I was messing around with my family at the park and punted a basketball the full length of the court only to nail my little brother in the head. Luckily he had a helmet on, unluckily he was riding a scooter and went down pretty hard.

"I was in a sport class..."

I was in a sport class, doing a game similar to tag as a warm-up or something.

A friend of mine was chasing me, so I ran at a small goalpost (corner at head height, you see where this is going) and dodged out of the way at the last second, expecting my friend to nearly go into it and have to stop himself, giving me time to escape.

He careered head-first into the corner of the goalpost and I didn't see him for the rest of the day.

"As a teen..."

As a teen, during a game of one-on-one, I tried to toss the basketball to the other guy by bouncing it off my crotch.

It would've worked fine, except I'm not built like a Ken doll, so I just powerslammed the ball into my dangly bits and fell to the ground.

"The two different trust falls..."

The two different trust falls I tried at a party within 5 min of each other and both people stepped away and I landed flat on my back. Good thing alcohol numbs both your physical and emotional feelings... Sometimes.

"We were in the middle..."

We were in the middle of math class and a lot of us were being quite loud, talking, etc. while the teacher was talking. He got really upset and started yelling at all of us. He is normally very calm, so we were all shocked and speechless. When he was done, there was complete silence for a solid 20 seconds. No movement whatsoever. When all of a sudden, the Mario theme started playing. We all looked to where the sound was coming from to see one of the kids scrambling his phone out, saying "sorry, sorry, that is my ringtone." Thinking about this moment never fails to make me laugh.

"A bunch of us guys..."

A bunch of us guys were throwing a water bottle across the classroom at each other before class one day, and one guy misthrew. He nailed this tough girl goth chick right in the side of the head. She turned to him with the purest look of murder I have every seen. That stare lasted a couple of seconds... then she burst out crying and ran out of the room.

"When I was..."

When I was young younger, my neighbor, Josh, flipped a water bottle and landed it on the back of the rim. Would've been less impressive if his older brother, Jake, hadn't capped another bottle on top of it. Wish I recorded that moment, only have a photo.

"At my 13th..."

At my 13th birthday party I was laughing hard and went to lean back against the wall. I fell through. Whole room laughed hysterically and I laughed so hard I nearly stopped breathing.

"Probably the time..."

Probably the time I fell off a scooter, in the middle of the road, and there was a truck coming in my direction and it was very close. There was no time to run so I laid back down, figured I was going to be in between the distance between the tyres. The truck driver stopped just as the truck was half-way over my knees. Good times.

"Walking home to the dorms..."

Walking home to the dorms wasted in the winter. Lose my balance and fall against a parked car's hood, roll/flopping down the hood onto my back in front of the car. I'm laying there for a few seconds when the car's light flash and the siren blasts a single whoop whoop. "Oh f---," I say outloud, "it's the police!" I get up and start running. I make it as far as the twenty feet to the other side of the street and try to vault the single chain and post fence lining the dorms' walkways. My foot clips the chain and I face plant right into a snowbank. "My dad is going to murder me," I think to myself as I lay there, waiting to be arrested.

But the footsteps that had been coming after me stop, and uproarious laughter ensues. With my head buried in the snow I'm not sure if the officer(s) said anything, all I heard was laughter as the car door closed and the patrol car drove off.

Not believing my luck I scrambled out of the snow and stumbled back to my dorm. I was freezing at that point and one of the girls on the floor took pity on me, wrapped me up in a blanket and we watched Fight Club. That's also the story of the first night I spent with my wife.

"I was around nine..."

I was around nine when I was able to build my first paper aeroplane in class. The teacher had gone to the toilet so I decided it was the best time to play it.

As I launched it, it went right across the room and made the pointy front tip hit my classmate straight in the eye. I was sent straight to the office and my classmate had to go home, and probably wasn't in school for a week.

Oddly enough, we still stay in touch and he's fine.

"I was walking home..."

I was walking home and saw my teacher stuck in traffic on his scooter, so go up to him from behind and go 'Hey sir!' really loudly, I kinda wanted to scare him a little bit, but he freaked out when he heard me and while turning his head to look at me, he also pushed on the accelerator and drove right into another scooter that was in front of him, all the while screaming and cursing me out. I was laughing so hard but also felt really bad for him, oops.

"Considering the string wasn't that long..."

Was camping with my dad and brother, we were eating some Ritz chips. We left some on the ground for chipmunks/squirrels right in front of us. My brother decided to tie one to a string, then held the string and waited.

We kept telling him they'd just ignore it and get any of the other chips on the ground, especially since his was in the center. A couple of minutes later, a chipmunk came up. It passed every single chip, grabbed the one on the string, and darted off. My brother kept holding the string, so it got ripped out of his mouth and he got flipped over.

You might think this is where the chipmunk runs away or grabs another chip. Nope. It grabs the same chip, digs in its heels, and plays a game of damn tug of war with my brother for the chip. Eventually my brother let go of the string and it went running off with the chip.

Considering the string wasn't that long (like 4 or 5 feet tops) and my dad and I were dying, I can't believe it stood up to us for that chip.
