Dumb Ass

[fishhunter]

As a kid I loved throwing rocks, and if a bird showed its ass anywhere in our yard a rock was soon on its way. Finally, one day a line drive rock struck home and knocked that sumbitch right out of a tall elm. That mfer didn't go 20.

Someone definatly just found out about rut Daniels!! Hahaha

”fish of 10,000 casts, that took 3....”

This thread is great. Wish I had something to contribute... but I’m just too smart. Oh wait:

Adopted the handle “Bed Wetter” on this website I hang out at sometimes...
Sold a barely used Gen1 Glock 17L. Still in original case with the manual. There were only a couple thousand ever imported into the US.
Shot the smaller of two bucks in a group this year, after having blown an opportunity at an even nicer buck the day before.

Since we're talking BB guns. Me and two buddies were driving through the South unit of TRNP. Whenever the opportunity arose we'd shoot at a prairie dog or two. We came upon an old bull buffalo and using the cover of a dry creek bed snuck within too short of distance. Shot him in the ball sack and took off running back to the car. Apparently they are tough cause he just watched us run.

Ouch, that leaves a mark and typically a nice big empty white space on the wall where he woulda hung..got a few of those empty spaces I think about often myself or toss around in bed thinking about ha.

I'm not even going to start on this thread because I would have carpal tunnel by the time I was done. Flooding the basement from upstairs and wrecking a couple nice vehicles, snowmobiles, falling out of trees, getting my foot stuck in bike spokes while riding on the handlebars doing down a big hill, having fireworks explode in my hand during baseball season, running from a cop in high heels with my baseball jacket and number on back in the middle of winter and many many more are memories that I should leave to rest.

I hope that was in your younger years (but still wouldn't be a good excuse) as that is an assinine thing to do. Have you ever had to deal with a critter that had ruptured testicle? Evidently not!

Wow. The intent of this thread was just to share tales of retardation but IMHO has morphed into a reflection of the importance to count blessings and constantly learn.

Fireone, Prairie Ghost, Lunkerslayer and Fishmission's posts share equal "holy shit" to me.

They don't "win"; they made MY skin crawl the most.

Have "A Christmas Story" in the background as I peruse the net now and reminded of a real situation by way of ricochet.

In the early '80's the Powerline 880 was offered in a few configurations. There was an ad showing ? gauge steel perforated by BB's with the smooth bbl version. I got that one for Christmas. Shit for pellets; good to go with BB's.

One fine spring day I decided to test the ad at point blank on a STOP sign. Not good. The BB bounced back and hit me just below the sternum. I dropped to my knees like from a good stomach punch that afternoon. It didn't break the skin but left a fantastic bruise.

Anyone else have a dumbass story to share?...

Merry Christmas! I like the Tin Man.

So your the guy that shoots up the road signs....lol karma lives .

Couldn't get the boat started on Audobon, at the Totten Trail ramp. Could. Not. Get it to turn over. Went swimming, loaded it by hand on a mossy ramp. Wet up to my chin. Got it on the trailer, and pulled it out. Older gent watching the whole thing. Comes walking over, and jiggles the throttle. I hear a loud "click" and NOW it's in neutral. Turned right over, sitting on the trailer.

Other "moments"... boat plug. Riding no-hands on a motorcycle, right past a cop. Stand up in the bed of a moving pickup and fall out the side, breaking my ankle. (that one didn't hurt until morning).. Lit my dad's license plate on fire on his truck, with WD40 and a lighter..

This last one was not strictly my fault, since placing a 75 gallon aquarium behind the pool table was my dad's idea... Fill in the blanks yourselves...

Do any of you sometimes wonder how in the heck we survived as kids? Sometimes it was long after we out grew being a "kid".
I always said I used up a ton of Guardian Angles in my time here on Earth.

The year after I bought my brand new 15 HP Yammy to put on my bathtub I took my wife to go fishing. She rarely went in that little boat I call my bath tub. We even went 12 miles to PKC ramp, and it wouldn't start. For the life of me I couldn't figure out why. After we got home I noticed the safety cord was off laying in the boat. Put it back on and started right up.

I imagine the light brass probably just blew out rather than pushing the bullet anywhere. Why is youth wasted on the young?

This is not correct, not proud at this point, but in my much younger years I used to smash 22 rounds with a ballpeen hammer, or use a vice grip to trigger the rimfire. All discharged the lead out the end of the brass. Derp...

I too, can vouch for this. Since the brass was still laying on the floor, it was obvious that IT wasn't what went through the garage roof.
