Pretty sure the son of state senator or representative from Kansas was beheaded on a water slide in KCMO a few years ago. The Schlitterbahn

It won't make sense to you right now...You're too upset to be rational about people having food stamps and a nicer car than you.

Lol this is the point where you've been absolutely drubbed in a thread, have no rational response, so you're going to act like everyone else is upset and hand-wringing and you're just the puppet master troll.

Not sure about the state senator part, but the Schlitterbahn beheading absolutely did happen.

My company used to partner with a charity that builds houses for the poor, until they did one and the woman who the house was build for pulled up in a brand new Tahoe.

These stories aren't made up.

And at any rate, why would this not anger ANYONE who pays taxes and is financially responsible? If you're fine with it, then I'd say you're the one who is struggling with being rational.

yeah pretty much, i think. the raft was designed to have a more "equitable" distribution of weight going over a hill on the slide. i think what happened was when the front hit the top of the hill, instead of the whole raft sort of catching a little bit of air or weightlessness, her weight kept the back of the raft glued down and the front lip basically became a sail. launched the kid straight up into the overhead guard, which was a series of rings with netting i think. pretty awful, Final Destination type shite.

i'm not sure what the protocol was supposed to be for weight distribution on the ride, i would think the heavier person would have been required to ride in front, but it's not like you have engineers working the rides day to day. just inherently a poor design.

A single woman gets home from a long day at the office and decides she need a little pick me up. She strips naked and applies Peanut butter to her vagine.

When Ranger, her little cockapoo, doesn't come running to lick up his treat, she goes looking for him, only to be startled by the lights suddenly coming on and her co-workers holding the dog, waiting for to enter the room and yelling "Surprise Ha...!"

Anybody that grew up in the 80s remembered the satanic panic. One of the rumors I heard growing up was that satanists would go to Catholic Churches, participate in the Eucharist, then desecrate the host later.

Back then, probably urban legend. Today, with all of society’s trans edgelords, it probably happens
