[Angry mother throws flaming diapers at men setting off late night fireworks](http://www.rockcitytimes.com/angry-mother-twins-throws-flaming-diapers-late-night-firework-shooters/) But here is the BEST part of the story: > [@](#): > > None of the individuals shooting the fireworks sustained any injuries, although several did have large amounts of child fecal matter on their faces. Police say that the men promptly put away the fireworks and apologized to the angry mother. None of the men are pressing charges according to police. > > As of this morning several bottles of wine, fresh fruit, and pastries have been set outside Orsborn’s house. Neighbors additionally tell us the men in question have spent much of the morning quietly washing Orsborn’s car, weeding her flowers beds, and pruning her rose bushes while their wives and girlfriends watch from across the street. I was incredibly sad to find out that it was an Onion like publication. ---

That is hysterical. We live near a mega-church that has a big Godfest or something over Labor Day weekend, complete with an enormous fireworks display at 10 pm on a Monday night. Hello, there are people right here in my giant neighborhood with BABIES we are trying to get to sleep. I wish I’d thought of lobbing flaming diapers at them 10 years ago. ---

Edit: nevermind, that’ll learn me to read the cite more than I read the OP. ---

Just because this was a fake news story doesn’t mean that we can’t make it real. Remember this on New Year’s! ---

> [@Lynn\_Bodoni](#): > > Just because this was a fake news story doesn’t mean that we can’t make it real. Depends. Although the flinging of fully-laden diapers at such a giant of an organization such as a church does seem [old-school](http://www.swapmeetdave.com/Bible/david-goliath.jpg). You shake my nerves and you rattle my panes! This timeo night? You thumpers are insane! You woke my Jill? I wanna kill. Goodness Gracious! Great Turds o Fire!!! ---
