ITT: Awesome Stories

So, tonight Some friends and I went swimming at a beach. At the beach there are poles with soft padding to show where the appropiate swim areas are. Well, we decided to play Marco Polo, which is a game where the "it" person closes their eyes and then shouts "Marco!". The other players have to shout "Polo!" so the "it" person can find the other people. Well, my friend dylan was it, and I had a good idea: I was gonna hide behind one of the poles. So he targets me and he is getting closer. he then is like 15 feet away from me but there is a problem: the pole is in the way. So he shouts "marco" and I say "polo'. He thinks he has me, so he jumps. Right into the pole. Many laughs were had at his expense.

Post your funny stories involving friends.

    We used to play a version of marco polo called Skulls and Crossbones.

    You played on playground equipment instead of in a pool. It was great because the blindfolded person would always trip and fall down the slide.

    And friend and I each purchased a Nerf Longshot today, and we were gonna go down to the school to have a big ol' shootout, but my other friend who bought 2 Mavericks decided last minute he couldnt come (read: ditched us) so we were like "fuck it".

    On the way home we see this kid Carlos we know, so we hold him up with our guns. Somehow he disarms me, so I whip out my Maverick and blast away, while my other friend goes crazy with his Longshot.

    At some point my friend was in a standoff with Carlos, Carlos fires, so he weaves and shoots him directly in his left eye and goes down as I pummel him with more darts.

    I'm not sure how it escalated like that but I love my new Nerf guns.

    Graves, if you and a friend both have a longshot, the only course of action is to find an abandoned construction site and snipe hunt eachother.

    Also I invented the coke & Rum Popcorn. like a lot of good inventions, it was an accident.

    So, later tongiht, we were back at his house. I decide to have a Rum & Coke and was eating popcorn. So I drop a piece of popcorn right into my rum & Coke. I decide that I ain't wasting that piece of popcorn, so I eat it, and was shocked. shocked at how good it was. I encouraged everyone to try it, and they thought it was awesome too. Ladies and gentlemen, this has been a good night so far.

    So... uh... I have a weird sinking feeling in my chest right now. I'm not sure why. I'm also feeling quite anxious and don't want to go to sleep for some reason.

    Do I have AIDS?

    I got pretty drunk last night and didn't fall down the stairs last night. That was pretty awesome.

    My friend was scared his truck couldn't make it through a low water crossing and I told him not to worry about it and take it slow. At some point he decides he has no tread on his backtires so he must hit it fast, I am thinking this is terrible logic. He hits the water at about 35, and at an angle to boot. Now, we were out near my friend's ranch, and this low water crossing is a slab of concrete 14 feet wide but it does not cover the entire part of the road. Well, we're halfway across and all of a sudden we're off the crossing and in the water and the water is half up to the passenger side door, and it's slowly filling up. I'm kinda freaked out to move since the truck's light and we're hung up on the crossing by the axles and it's kinda at a steep angle at this point. We have to have a friend come tow us out and then everything's gravy and continue the foray for the cigarettes. I'm just glad I was sober for this.

    It was an interesting night, to say the least.

    I can picture it now.
    Making your own ghillie suits, Standing in the open, backs touching, counting off and running, finding a good spot in an abandoned building, maybe even recruit a friend as a spotter, scanning the horizon for your opponent. First hit wins.

    oh man, I'd love that shit too much.

    Ghillie suits are more for woodland shit though, aren't they?


    My friend and I did try and find a way to make biodegradable nerf darts at one point, for the record. We were going to do some crazy goddamned shit out in my woods.

    Alright, story

    So at swim lessons, I'm with my level one kids (like just older then pre-school) and the girl I normally work with fucked up her ankle, so my douchebag site manager who happens to be a weaboo, creepy, and in general stupid individual teaches with me.

    Now I usually teach level twos, so douchebag site manager is leading the deal, and he wants the little kids to pick up little rings from the bottom of the pool. (We're talkin like, little kids who are barely able to get their faces wet let alone do something most of my level twos can't)

    Well of course they couldnt do it, so he has this brilliant idea to pick them up and then throw them to the bottom of the pool to grab it

    Needless to say he did this to a little girl and she cried. A lot. She had just gotten over her fear of the water. I was pissed.
