Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers

Not really me.


Thought this might be a lesson to all the newbees.

The car is still running, as can be witnessed by the exhaust.

The driver finally came back after the police were called, and was found crouched behind the rear of the car, attempting to cut the twine around the load! Luckily, the police stopped him and had the load removed .

The materials were loaded at Home Depot. Their store manager said they made the customer sign a waiver.

While the plywood and 2X4's are fairly obvious, what you can't see is the back seat, which contains - are you ready for this? - 10 bags of concrete @ 80 lbs. each.

They estimated the load weight at 3000 lbs. Both back tires exploded, the wheels bent and the rear shocks were driven through the floorboard.

And these people VOTE and breed.

Where did this happen? Even with a waiver, I'm amazed HD would load it like that.

He could have killed someone --wait, let me change that:

He WOULD have killed someone, and waiver or no waiver, HD would still be responsible in no small way.

My Friends, I give you -

MUST BE THE DUMBEST GUY ON EARTH! OR AT LEAST A CLOSE 2ND!

This picture is real - not doctored in any way - and was taken by a Transportation Supervisor for a company that delivers building materials for 84 Lumber. When he saw it in the parking lot of IHOP, he went to buy a camera to take pictures.

I'm afraid he is destined to die young, and his last words will be, "Hold my beer and watch this."

The problem is, he'll probably live FOREVER, but kill others in his path.

Let me guess—he's either Lebanese or Israeli.

that my friends is the process of natural selection

Too cheap, and stupid, to rent a truck from Home Depot? It's about $20 for an hour and a quarter rental, gas included.

I'm impressed that it's staying up there. I never have that kind of luck. I can hardly get my pile of wood to stay together with a flat trailer, 6 ratchet straps, 40' of twine, 12 bungy cords and a bag of mulch to hold it down!

I was thinking that someone found a flaw in my story, but that is so funny that it is true.

I Saw nealy the same thing yesterday. A couple of guys had loaded a pickup with must have been 16 ft dimension lumber. This is a short bed so you can see it was nearly dragging the ground

We don't need racist statements like this.

Come on--if you can't make fun of Israeli or Lebanese drivers, who can you make fun of?

Who can you make fun of?
How about African Americans, Mexicans, Canadians, Europeans, Native Americans, Aisians, Women, Short People, Fat People, Jews, Christians, Arabs, Muslims, and Bigots, for a few.

What I am saying is people did something stupid and dangerous, you are making a racist joke about it.
It is ok to make a joke, but don't bring in racial stereotypes.
You may think it is a harmless or a funny thing to say, but I find it offensive.
And you are defending it.
I am sorry to go on about this but I have seen and heard enough, I say something about it now were I use to be silent and let it go.
