Dad Puts Kid In Pay Washer....

Worst Parent of the Week: Dad Puts Toddler in Washing Machine and Turns it On.

A gene pool exit?:mad:

Q

What is wrong with people, really? That makes me sick. The poor scared kid.

I’m guessing he thought he’d just give the kid a carnival-ride experience for a few seconds and thought he’d be able to open the door at any time.

Dude. They have choo-choos and spaceships for that shit at the mall. There is no excuse for stuffing a kid into a washing machine.

I was going to make a joke about him doing this for free at home, but looking at the article makes me too sick to my stomach to even grin at a morbid joke.

What an idiot. :mad:

one kid that will never like carnival rides.

He’ll be fine with carnival rides.

Clean clothes, on the other hand…

That attendant was badass. Shove the tables out of the way, pull the plug, yank the door open.

To be fair, he does this a few times a week.

People are stupid. And half of them are stupider than average.

We used to roll down a small hill inside a used dryer drum. Maybe these are some long lost relatives of mine?

As proof, read the YouTube comments on that video.

:smiley:

To be fair, YouTube comments are the Mos Eisley of the Internet. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.

It seems that the father here is just being goofy and ends up doing something seriously dangerous. That is, I don’t believe he expected the washing machine’s door to automatically lock. I wonder why it did.

This doesn’t excuse his actions. It just makes them somewhat more comprehensible.
I am very pleased that the child wasn’t permanently harmed (at least not physically).

Front loading machines lock when there is water in the drum to prevent floods that are also caused by idiot users.

“Wow, son! This is worse than that time last summer you complained about the heat, so we stuck you in a freezer!”

Fucking morons.

It also started filling - so someone must have put money in it. The couple seemed to actually be doing their wash in the machine next to it, so it probably wasn’t them.

And agreed, dad was just being a goof - he put the kid in, stood back, and immediately went to open the door (possibly because he saw the water). Hell, possibly they’ve played that ‘game’ a few times before.

It doesn’t excuse his stupid, idiotic behavior. God, I wonder sometimes - we let any asshole have a kid, don’t we? As long as you have a working dick.

: exits thread in disgust at humanity :

Actually I would have thought having a working dick is one of the few things that means you can’t have a kid. :stuck_out_tongue:
