    ZOMG! Oops!

    Oops.PNG

    Driver swerves to avoid moose, hits bear - US news - Weird news - NBCNews.com

    Has this ever happened to you?

    Alternatively, have you ever tried to fix something and just made it worse instead?

    It happens to me quite often. It really sucks, I must say.
    But in all seriousness, I've tried forgiving an ex of mine and letting him back into my life as strictly a friend. This just made everything more awkward and pissed off my fiance. Oops...

    I was filling out my time sheet the other day and noticed an error so I corrected it. I corrected it wrong again and basically kept smurfing crossing things out until you couldn't tell what the hell was going on. So I got a new one and everything was smooth sailing. I tend to try and forget when I smurf up things

    I wonder which one does more damage to your car? I mean, bears seem all chubby and fluffy and absorbent, whereas meese are essentially a solid block of your-puny-automobiles-mean-nothing-to-me-ness. Mythbusters are probably not allowed to answer my question.

    Also, I'm sure that everyone has done something along these lines:

    I remember when I was a newbie at work, I tried to fix a part that was over bent so that my department wouldn't have to make a new one. I underestimated the...severity of shop hammers and hit the part way too hard. So yeah, I totally warped the part and everyone laughed at me.

    I **** in their cereal later to have my revengeance.

    In the driver's defense, hitting a moose would catastrophically wreck your car and most likely send you to the hospital. Hitting a bear would still be pretty nasty but not nearly as bad, and I'd rather hit a bear than a moose. If it's a deer, you don't swerve - you just let your car hit it. Moose - swerve that tit or you'll be dead.

    I have never had to swerve for anything, thankfully!

    The other day while talking to a new co-worker I walked straight into a giant fan.

    I've had to swerve a couple of times for bunnies. There are always bunnies out at night near my best friend's house.

    My uncle knew a guy who swerved to avoid a bunny and hit a tree. Totaled the car. Never swerve.

    I don't want to kill a bunny. You of all people should understand that.

    I once had a sparrow fly into the side of my head.

    I do this frequently. I repeat a word again and again correctly while all along thinking I'm saying it wrong because this is the first time I've truly understood just how weird the word actually sounds.

    What exactly do you do and what was this fan's name? I'm also assuming the fan was male as those collisions tend to be the most inconvenient for everybody.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.
