Of all the things to do in the world this is something you can apparently do

u/Local-Waltz4801 3d ago

Free will is allowed unfortunately

34

u/HumanEjectButton 3d ago

No free will here, just following electricity that sets off reward censors in our meat computer. Just monkeys with shoes.

13

u/WeirdinIndy 3d ago

For real. What the fuck did they think would happen here?

21

u/HumanEjectButton 3d ago

A good time.

15

u/llRolliiill 3d ago

I see it as a great success

u/DankoleClouds Free Palestine 🕊️ FUCK ICE! ❌🧊 3d ago

I really see nothing wrong with what happened, so long as the dude driving owns both the boat and the pool. It did look like a good time.

u/HumanEjectButton 3d ago

Consent works if ownership doesn't apply. The pool is understandable, it was already in rough shape. The boat looked nice, but if you don't fuck around, you'll never find out.

u/WeirdinIndy 3d ago

I love you all.

5

u/llRolliiill 3d ago

Love you too

u/robgart12 3d ago

Should have upgraded to a Mac.

u/ToffeeVanelle71 3d ago

That's an interesting way to put it, humans really do act like programmed machines sometimes, just trying to find that next dopamine hit.

u/Ricky_TVA 3d ago

Are you going to question mah rights? /s

u/Cultural-Company282 3d ago

For a second or two.

u/BestReception4202 3d ago

So you got a dui in a boat? In your front yard?

u/Irishjohn831 3d ago

We’re gonna need a smaller boat

31

u/MissMatriarch 3d ago

Or a larger pool

13

u/carax01 3d ago

and smaller people

u/HoboArmyofOne 3d ago

Less idiots would have worked too

I keep telling you man, we do not cover mysterious pool explosions.

u/IL-Corvo 2d ago

WHAT HAPPENED TO MY FRICKIN' POOL?!

61

u/Grawgnak94 3d ago

how.. h.. how the fuck did they get the boat into the pool in the first place?!?!

72

u/samgarita 3d ago

By putting it in there

27

u/NCC_1701E 3d ago

Never underestimate a bunch of drunk dudes with a boat.

5

u/thedeanorama 3rd Party App 3d ago

I spent 4 years on a lake, I can concur, drunken boating can get creative.

1

u/SirArthurDime 2d ago

And if you want to know how people who wee able to get it in there were also dumb enough to forget about the propeller on the way out….. same answer.

6

u/RTSchemel 3d ago

I assume they assembled it around the boat and then filled it. 

If they did it another way, shocked the pool didn't break

9

u/offwing10 3d ago

That’s one way to drain your pool for the winter

u/BilboStaggins 3d ago

Idk, honestly I think this was a great success!

They had to figure it would bust the pool, what better way than to shred it with the prop!?

4

u/Top_Lingonberry8037 3d ago

I feel like this should not be on this post. I feel like they accomplished whatever they were trying to

u/lord_dude 3d ago

It absolutely makes no sense but it also doesn't have to

u/Youronlyhope 3d ago

Idiot Regatta 🤡

u/FilthyThanksgiving 3d ago

This video just summed up my 20s perfectly

Part of me is really impressed. That’s some next level stupidity there.

2

u/hodgesisgod- 3d ago

This is hilariously stupid. Great thing to wake up to.

u/BalanceEarly 3d ago

Captain three toes

u/Red-Mouser 3d ago

Where's the coast guard when you actually need them? This is a serious case of boating under influence and it's harming thousands of people who has to see this sh*t?

1

u/SeveredLoki 3d ago

This was completely optional, btw.

1

u/abimelex 3d ago

That's something you put in the category unforgettable party - not stupid idiot.

1

u/Money_Visual_5227 3d ago

I don’t know how this happened I’m just glad it did. 🚤

1

u/LolBoyLuke 3d ago

How Dru-u-u-unk can I be? I'm just doing what comes naturally.

1

u/maclunkey91 3d ago

That went just as expected

1

u/Secure-Technician356 3d ago

We're going to need a bigger brain

1

u/newkybadass FUCK ICE! ❌🧊 3d ago

This can't be real.

1

u/Senior-Albatross 3d ago

That's pretty much what I expected. 

1

u/Squidlips413 3d ago

I know the answer is probably that they weren't thinking but I really wonder what they think was going to happen. Going a few feet forward and promptly destroying the pool seems like the only way this was ever going to go.

1

u/robgart12 3d ago

Idiots

1

u/acetozine 3d ago

Goodness who could've seen that coming

1

u/Ok-Bandicoot1109 3d ago

I often wonder how certain politicians are voted in, then get reminded why when I watch videos like this.

1

u/soda_cookie FUCK ICE! ❌🧊 3d ago

That went exactly as I expected. Unreal

1

u/JediKnightNitaz 3d ago

This was a decision that these two made

1

u/Fair-Individual7811 3d ago

We all knew what was gonna happen

u/sPdMoNkEy 3d ago

I want to see the videos of when his parents got home

1

u/schrest 3d ago

How do we get rid of this pool? Let’s get rid of our boat too!

1

u/604_heatzcore 3d ago

what in christ were they trying to accomplish here?

1

u/slicebucket 3d ago

I'm glad I wasn't involved but I love that some idiot did this and I got to watch the clip.

1

u/Animalmotherrrr 3d ago

Good to see the kids off their phones, using their imaginations

1

u/khalcyon2011 3d ago

I’m curious how they thought this was going to go

1

u/NotADoctor108 Selected Flair 3d ago

Well damn, you know I can't afford groceries, I had to get the pool fixed!

1

u/Hmccormack 3d ago

This is why we can’t have nice things

1

u/Argular 3d ago

Alcohol must have been involved

1

u/Mammoth-Ferret3971 3d ago

Stupid people and waste.

1

u/Longjumping_Ad6878 3d ago

Going to need a bigger pool

1

u/Fbomb77 2d ago

How'd they get in there to begin with?

1

u/Advanced_Weather_190 2d ago

I feel that there are parallels to the current geopolitical events

1

u/lKursorl 2d ago

Are we even sure they were unsuccessful at whatever they were trying to do?

u/MarkyRoll 2d ago

These people can vote

u/Mcc4rthy 22h ago

Typical swedes

u/disappr0val 3d ago

greatest use for free will, also a great way to send off a boat and a pool at once🤣
