Real-Life WTF Moments

[Adslahnit]

So... this works just like the In-Game WTF Moments Thread, but this time, this particular thread is where you post your REAL-LIFE WTF MOMENTS!

Let me get this started:

My co-worker, who doesn't even know what GW is, used the words "paragon" and "dervish" in the exact same sentence.

I saw pictures of these VEHICLES which take an extraordinary amount of guts to drive (well I would definitely get into a car crash if I saw the bottom two on my rear-view mirror) :








Now go ahead and post your own Real-Life WTF Moments!

Wow... um....

Reality TV. I mean seriously, how does that keep getting made!? Everytime I see a new one, there's my WTF moment.

Though it seems like it's starting to die out, thankfully.

When a bird took one on me during school.

Last semester in shop class... we were cleaning the shop and i was supposed to get this saw dust out from behind this table that was agianst the wall. I didnt know how to get it out...there was a whole semesters worth of saw dust back there. I took an airhose (lol) shoved it back there and turned it on...a HUGE cloud of saw dust comes into the air...people started coughing and stuff..it was hard to see the other side of the room it was so dusty in there. well, like 2 minutes later, the dust actived the fire alarm on the ceiling...they evacuated the building (keep in mind this was December in Iowa..freezing outside lol)...omg ill never forget that....

Thanks to my family I have more then enough wtf moments.. but these are my top three.


1: Watching as my step dad, who had just finished repairing this car, pull out of the drive way in a 65 Ford Mustang Mach 1 only to have the axel break.. I think that was the first one he totaled.

Mom:'Ya know? Up untill that point I thought you were doing a really good job with the car. Now, however.. I think you are an idiot.'

In his defense though.. we were able to find another Mach 1 from the same year, after he traded off what I think was a 1980 camero for it.

2: Watching tv and changing to the local news to see footage of my step dad being drug off by the cops for assaulting Santa Claus..

Myself:'Now.. I know Santa was saying 'ho, ho, ho' as you and youre sister walked by but I don't believe he was refering to her exactly.'

3: Opening a postcard on my birthday to see 'I need bail money!.. ps: dont tell youre mother.'

I was sitting at a four-way intersection a while back and the adjacent car had its turn to go across. About halfway, right in front of me, the car suddenly drops to the road with a crash and screeching of sparks, and the left front wheel continues across the intersection without the rest of the auto.

I was definitely like, wtf?

rofl... great stories

my wtf's:

1. My co-workers use the worlds "Whirling Dervish" all the time... I think they make up reasons to use those words, and they are all 50-60 (i have an internship through my high school).

2. I was driving out of my neighborhood, and i come to a stop light. I look down to get a cd, and when I look up I see Batman and Spiderman (guys in costumes) chasing another guy across the crosswalk... then police went in the opposite direction, and I saw the police man look at them, and seriously consider turning around to get them. He didn't turn around. Ironically... he went to the donut shop.


"WTF!?!??!?!"

One day, I woke up in sunny Vancouver, where you can almost grow palm trees, and saw four inches of snow outside.

Oh, that's right, it was today.

7AM, in the taxi cab line at the Mirage. It's pouring down rain. Because it's raining, and it's damn early, I've been sitting in line for about 45 minutes.

I finally get my very first fare of the day. Two really drunk people, a guy and a girl. "We want to go to Treasure Island!"

Now, if you've ever been to Vegas, you'd know that Treasure Island is approximately 500 feet or less away from the Mirage. It's across the freaking parking lot, on the other side of valet. With the base fee of $3.20, the ride would come to no more than $4 total by the end of it.

I just eyeroll at this, mainly because I'm just happy to finally get out of the barricaded cab queue. And I drive them their 500 feet, cross-parking lot journey.

Total cost: $3.70. They paid $30, (a $25+ tip) and went on their merry, drunken way.
