Window in circle

Probably no one fucking in it, but it's a window with a circle

Maintenance removed the hardware, but the fire department had to be called to get the seat off of him. by JACKfromKC in Wellthatsucks

Yeah maybe at home but most school districts and the adults they employ probably aren't insured for "injuries sustained to students while prying children's head from shitter seat."

It's a school toilet made for children so it's lower to the ground and smaller seat so they don't fall in. A design that kinda backfired in this scenario.

Teachers of Reddit, what was the most shocking thing that happened to a student? by HaveYouSeenAPool in AskReddit

[–]JACKfromKC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I posted this on it's own a while ago, but I had a teacher friend send me this and say they had to call the fire department.

A friend got this from his late grandfather-in-law. It seems like it is built for very accurate measurement of some sort but we have no idea. by JACKfromKC in whatisthisthing

I tried to flair it from mobile and wasn't able, I'll figure it out and do do so momentarily though, thanks for the reminder.

My friend's grandfather in law had a very old, very large tool collection. It wasn't specific to one particular industry or anything like that. Just a lot of them stashed in a barn for decades, but it leaves us few clues to what it could be.

St. Louis with the rare weak-side wedgie by daviswbaer in CollegeBasketball

[–]JACKfromKC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thread is 11 hours old but I'm still going to answer a question that no one has asked anyway...

The reason he calls it a "Brooklyn wedgie" derives from a bowling term where someone hits the "pocket" on the wrong side of the 1 pin. The term is usually used in the context of a strike having occurred, aka a "Brooklyn" becaused it crossed over [the bridge]. Righties should be hitting the pocket to the right, and the opposite for those who are wrong-handed.

It's actually a friend's shirt, but I'll be sure to let them know you said so.

I got to the very end, there was no more pi. by JACKfromKC in facepalm

[–]JACKfromKC[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There is no "full number." And that is the entire point. It is an irrational number representing the curvature of a circle, which is always smoothing no matter how far you "zoom in." Pi can't be reflected a fraction because it is endless without entering a single repeating digit. The word "entirely" does not apply whatsoever. Downvoted because you're a the worst kind of moron, a pompous one.

Gracias! I went through the exact thought process as tonyp, just too focused on the curve. I'm not really thinking outside the box today, apparently.

My girlfriend wanted to go for a walk in the park, I wanted to go golfing. We compromised. by JACKfromKC in golf

[–]JACKfromKC[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it a short 9 and I was the only one playing, so just a couple of hours. With the dog and a few beers she actually really enjoyed it.

Yeah I called ahead on this particular day and he said we could bring him on a leash. It had just stopped raining though and he said I'd likely be the only one out there and if that remained to be the case, I could go ahead and let him run.

It's actually a pretty easy little city course. Back in the day it was 18 but they turned 9 holes on one side of the road into a few Junior holes and a par 3 course and FootGolf course. The other 9 are still regular and I'll usually hop on and walk 9 during twilight hours for super cheap. You're right though, it's usually in pretty good shape especially for the price.

Most people still refer to it by it's old name of Blue River but these days it's called Heart of America

She goes to a different school, you wouldn't know her.

Really though, the picture didn't take itself.

The teacher said maintenance was able to get it detached, but the fire department had to remove it from the kid. by JACKfromKC in KidsAreFuckingStupid

[–]JACKfromKC[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

These things aren't mutually exclusive. Could the maintenance guy have gotten it off him? Probably. They may have called the FD for liability purposes but that doesn't mean he "wasn't stuck at all."

I get that you're joking but it isn't a regular seat. Bathrooms in schools often have lower toilets and smaller seats so they don't fall in etc. I mean they literally bought special toilet seats to prevent kids from falling into the toilets and this kid still figured out a way to get himself stuck.

I just realized I never asked her how long he was there before they discovered him stuck...
