Was this a big, stupid thing to do?

dinneenp

Hi,
Came home with the kids & 1 used nappy. I was out the front throwing the sliothar with my son for a while. On my way back to our house I threw the nappy over the house into the back garden. Or tried to; it didn't make it over, but I rolled down & and got stuck (not in public view).

My wife had a massive go at me, sayinhbjts totally immature, stupid, ridiculous, unbelievable thing to do. I said it's was a bit stupid, but no big deal. I I was throwing a sliothar so just tried to throw the nappy over.

Thoughts please..
Thanks.

Firstly - why the **** would anyone use hashtags on Boards?

Secondly what the **** is this supposed to mean?

Why would you get so excited on boards about a person using a hashtag?
Get yourself a cup of tea and take a few deep breaths there.

was there a number 2 in the nappy?

A Battered Mars Bar

Bungalow or 2 storey?. Will determine the level of your thickness for me. Just count yourself lucky the nappy didn't spin mid throw and launch a projectile of sloppy green sh*t 600 miles an hr into your face thanks to centrifugal force.

Did she have the dinner ready at this stage?
You had to be getting off to the pub, she shouldn't have time for all that whinging,is how that would have gone in the old days.

That sounds exactly like something I'd do so I'd recommend that you pretend to be sorry about it and move on.

Having a used nappy stuck on the top of your house would create a certain perception about you I think. Being "those people with the nappy stuck on the house" isn't really who you want to be. It was just luck really it's not sitting in your front guttering I imagine.

I can totally see that your wife would be incredulous at you doing something like that. There's a reason people don't use used nappies as sports balls.

You belted it over the house with the sliothar, didn't you?

OP, we have a similar story somewhere. Why don't you contact the BBC?

If your happy and you know it and you really want to show it..... throw a nappy over the house?

Next time just clap your hands...

I suppose it would have been worse if you'd tried to throw the baby over the roof, but it was a bit silly...and all the other things your wife said. ☺

Why??

There is no upside at all to what you did

OP, sounds like you're a big wayne

Your wife's right - it's a stupid thing to do, but it's also quite funny.

I could list 50 things I could beat them at.
Like what?
Throwing.
Throwing!
That's good.
The landlord of the Lamb pub in Chichester challenges me to throw one of these copper kettles over his pub.

Nappies are absorbent, and they swell. If it hasn't already slid down the roof into a gutter, it will be washed down into the gutter with the next shower, and then there's an even chance that it will block a gutter or downpipe.

You need to get a ladder, OP, and go up and remove the nappy.

And, remember, if God had intended us to throw nappies over the house, He would not have created the nappy bin.

I think you may be confused as to what a sliothar is...

For shame. And I from Galway and all.

Thinly veiled 'I have a sliothar' thread


A true test of a man is what they can throw over a house or building.

Reminds me of one of the greatest scenes from The Office

She's right but I assume it's been forgotten by now?

OP you remind me of the time my friend came home drunk from the and couldn't remember his alarm code or find his wife.
His solution was to lean out his upstairs window with a hurley and beat the bell box off his house.
Neighbours called the Gardai who arrived as his wife arrived home from work.
He spent two nights in the couch while negotiating his terms of residency.

Messy as well

You'll never go pro with that sort of form, I suggest you take the wife and kids on holiday and maybe do some yoga classes or try some meditation, sounds like you need to clear your head anyway.

When you start back again I suggest practicing with smaller obstacles first, have you a garden shed that you could practice throwing the nappy over first? The talent is there but the head is not, it can make or break a man. I would also maybe try setting a goal for yourself, say get 5 nappies over the roof by the end of the week.

I wish you the best of luck in your journey, keep your chin up and never stop believing in yourself!
